Using PLM to Manage New Product Introduction

While Product Data Management (PDM) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) are often discussed as two different business applications, the different concepts they describe are really part of a single, holistic approach to managing information and processes. That said, it's useful to understand those concepts and capabilities, and how implementing them can help your business. 

In this fourth of a five-part series introducing the concepts of PLM we'll discuss how PLM can accelerate the process of bringing new products to market.  Topics that will be covered in this webcast are:  

• A general NPI/NPD workflow
• Using phase-gate milestone tracking to anticipate and avoid delays
• How reporting can provide real-time views into development status
• How PLM can provide unique insights into your product portfolio
