The Difference Between PLM and PDM (and why you need both)

Improve quality, reduce costs, and get your products out to market faster.  Realize the benefits of using product lifecycle management with data management.

By using PLM with Product Data Management (PDM) during development, the data, the process, and the people involved are all better connected, enabling collaboration and giving you greater control. PDM captures and organizes all of your design and product data at lower cost. It improves your engineering process, so you can deliver products quicker. PDM ensures you have a single source of truth—it looks after all your designs and engineering bills of materials (BOMs), in one system.
