Extend the value of your data by integrating PDM with other business systems such as ERP and PLM. Connecting PDM with enterprise systems reduces time-consuming manual entry, increases data reuse, and provides valuable business insights.

Improve collaboration and design reuse, track revisions, reduce errors, and boost productivity with centralized data management.

Build a competitive product portfolio with integrated change management and product development tracking. Capture the complete product specification and make it accessible to all stakeholders in real time. Manage the whole lifecycle of products from ideation through development to launch and withdrawal from market.

Drive innovation by capturing ideas and applying a formal process to review and implement them. This standardized, seamless, yet flexible business process drives online collaboration, information sharing, decision making, and documentation of outcomes. 

Ensure that your products meet market and customer expectations by managing all requirements in a connected environment. Prioritize requirements to focus on relevant, feasible requests. Automated workflows manage approval signoffs, revision control, and tracked changes.

Keep product development projects organized by managing stakeholders from various departments. Stay aligned on tasks and deliverables needed to define, develop, and launch a new product. Configurable project templates, standardized phase-gate milestones, and automated workflows help reduce delays so you can get to market faster.

Improve product quality and traceability with automated processes to manage non-conformance, return merchandise authorizations (RMA), corrective/preventative actions (CAPA), failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA), and supplier quality action reports (SCAR). Quality and engineering have a closed-loop change process to improve product designs, identify supplier problems, and make corrections.
