 PDF Key takeaways: Companies in shipbuilding and marine are not consistently achieving the maximum value from their PLM investments< To maximize benefits, implementations need to be tailored for and incorporate industry specific best practices and company-specific business needs Companies need to fully implement the PLM technology they acquire to maximize the value from their investment—there is often a Value Gap between investment potential and return realized Siemens PLM Software’s Shipbuilding Industry Catalyst enables more complete, industry tailored, best practice enabled implementations resulting in a higher return on investment that accrues more rapidly Shipbuilders and other players in the marine industry face a number of challenges as they work to adopt modern PLM strategies and solutions to enhance individual, group, and organizational productivity to allow more complex projects to be undertaken and delivered profitably. The “Future Fleet” initiatives that are currently driving design of the next generation of ships are resulting in more complex ships and marine
