PLM Vision 2016 - published
PLM
in general is in a very interesting phase. The concept itself is much
widely and deeply understood on a global
scale.
Its potential in business
development
is shared and recognized
by the
business management far better than 3-5 years ago. Manufacturing
business PLM in most western economies has reached a mature phase in
its evolution, some may call it PLM1.0. Most of large, multinational,
frontline manufacturing (incl. also
electronics
manufacturing, pharmaceutical etc.)
corporations have structured PLM
processes
and a supporting PLM
IT-system
implemented - at least
to certain
parts of the organization.
In five years, by 2016 PLM will evolve significantly and break through to new domains with in a corporation, such as to executive decision making, innovation and customer involvement, full lifecycle support, not only product definition lifecycle. By 2016 PLM also will increase its footprint in the service industry and break to new domains; SME field, utilities, construction, fashion and footwear businesses and to process, food and consumer packaged goods businesses.
If you find these issues interesting, I have discussed them in a vision paper - PLM vision 2016 and beyond. In this paper (37 pages) I present my vision on what PLM could be in 2016. The paper is an outlook estimation, not a scientific study. The contents is based on my 15 year PDM/PLM experience, 40+ PLM related projects and assignments for 30+ customer companies producing products (services) of different type. Academic collaboration, numerous seminars and events, discussions and contacts with PLM experts all over the globe have also influenced the contents. Both recent academic and commercial research support my views.
