Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)
Product lifecycle management software manages product data, revisions and engineering changes across defined design, manufacturing and support workflows.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Product structure and revision relationships determine which definition applies to a configuration. Change control coordinates updates across affected records.
CAD, ERP and manufacturing interfaces must align identifiers and ownership. A file repository alone does not establish a controlled product lifecycle.
What turns activity into demand
Demand follows organisations and product programmes needing coordinated configuration. Software, migration, integration and engineering services have distinct commercial scope.
The commercial boundary
Software, migration, integration and engineering services have distinct commercial scope.
