Green Technologies Impact PLM
December 29, 2011
Automobile manufacturers are working hard to integrate green technologies into their designs and engineering. Electric cars will soon be a reality and as Joe Berkai explains in “Auto Industry Change: Sustainability & PLM” “knowing the risks and opportunities across every aspect of the business and across the lifecycle of every product is crucial.”
The future of the auto industry is every changing and now with green technologies:
“[i]t’s essentially guaranteed that automakers are going to have to redesign their products over and over again in response to changing customer expectations, regulators, and the available infrastructure.”
Product lifecycle management (PLM) will be crucial to companies “to evaluate vehicle platforms and pick the optimal design.” Their sustainability will rely upon superior PLM.
It is not just the auto industry that is feeling the impact of green technologies. Most manufacturing companies are looking for more environmentally sound ways to produce their products and with that is a need for PLM. Companies like Inforbix, will enhance your PLM by addressing the findability issues. Finding the necessary data will become easy, effective and affordable. Any manufacturing company of any size could benefit from Inforbix’s solutions which is great for your green bottom line.

I agree that green technologies and PLM are changing the way cars are designed and manufacturered. Take a look at the StreetScooter story recently posted on FastCoExist – they used PTC’s PLM and CAD technology to enable 50 partners to collaborate and design this EV. Very interesting piece.
