PLM Provides ‘Additional Business Value’ for Boeing
February 29, 2012
Boeing, one of the top manufacturers of the world’s aircrafts announced recently that they were extending a contract with Siemens for PLM services. OnWindows covered the story in the article, Boeing enhances PLM capabilities, explaining how PLM solutions are the only answer to most problems facing global companies like Boeing.
As Nancy Baily, Boeing VP of IT Product Systems, was quoted by OnWindows:
“We are partnering with Siemens PLM Software to enhance Boeing’s PLM capabilities. The openness of the Siemens PLM Software will continue to support, and help us improve, the solutions we use throughout Boeing, creating additional business value for our company.”
The decision to adopt PLM solutions is not limited to companies the size of Boeing. In fact, many small to mid-size companies are benefitting from cloud services offered by PLM providers like Inforbix, a leader among PLM providers. By moving information to the cloud companies of all sizes are able to drastically reduce costs in IT and across all departments as these services help users to find, share and reuse information.
As PLM continues to grow and change as technology becomes available the services provided to those utilizing PLM solutions will become limitless in cost-cutting and building efficiency. The next generation of PLM services are focused not only on streamlining processes from design to manufacturing but also on product data access and enterprise search. We recommend that companies previously hesitant to adopt PLM because of cost concerns investigate all the ways PLM solutions can help their company. We believe that in almost every situation the rewards far outweigh the costs.
