Go Green with Cloud Based PLM
March 20, 2012
The green movement has now permeated into manufacturing as more and more customers are demanding green and clean manufacturing practices and willing to put their money where their mouth is. In the article, It is Easy Being Green!, on Supply & Demand Chain Executive, the role of product lifecycle management (PLM) in producing the clean and green manufacturing processes is discussed in length, along with examples of companies attempting to use PLM to bolster sales from green thinking customers.
As to how PLM can help companies receive the desired results, the article explains:
“Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) can play a vital role in driving the sustainability benchmarks in Request for Application (RFA) environments. By design, PLM provides an excellent platform to collaborate important information related to the materials used, packaging and compliance that can be integrated in product development. PLM also can be effectively used to monitor and improve the green governing factors in the product development phase, especially those that directly impact our environment.”
Many outside the PLM industry do not realize that established PLM providers have been helping businesses of all sizes streamline manufacturing thus creating clean and green practices as a by-product for years. Inforbix, a PLM solutions provider is large enough to offer clients cloud based services yet is still small enough to offer a customized solution with excellent customer service. By helping clients move to the cloud and by creating efficient product data access Inforbix users are able to find, use and share data with the minimal amount of waste possible.
