Your organization has made the decision that Product Lifecycle Management is the right strategic business tool to help you remain competitive and secure successful organizational longevity in an increasingly globalized marketplace. With the decision to implement PLM, you now come face to face with a myriad of PLM solutions that you can choose from. For a successful implementation of PLM in your organization it is essential to select the “right” PLM for your business needs and organizational culture. The PLM decision will impact the organization for years to come. Once a PLM solution is implemented, organizations will find it difficult to move to a new PLM platform that replaces the incumbent PLM platform.
Choosing the right platform is further complicated by the fact that no PLM platform is implemented in a “green zone”. Countless point solutions/software solutions are being used within the organization. The selected PLM solution will need to be easily integrated with these applications and not negatively impact the user experience.
Ensuring that the right PLM solution is selected for your organization requires a highly objective PLM Platform assessment process. Involving an independent external consultant early on in the PLM platform assessment process, one who can provide an unbiased neutral perspective to the process, will result in a platform assessment and selection that is acceptable to most stakeholders.
In this white paper, Integware will provide you with a guide to decide “Which PLM Platform is right for your organization?”
