Proctor and Gamble Highlight Need for New Data Management Solutions
January 27, 2012
It was recently announced that the giant corporation Proctor and Gamble (P&G) has adopted even more project life management (PLM) software from equally as giant Siemens, a leader in the field of PLM. A recent article, P&G and Siemens Extend Ties – Analyst Blog, on NASDAQ explained how the two companies are strengthening their relationship. While not all companies come even close in comparison to the PLM needs of P&G they can take a note on the utilization of PLM.
The article explains the benefits of PLM by saying,
“P&G has always given great importance to its research and development. Its technologists have been responsible for several historic “firsts” that revolutionized their product categories. Siemens’ software was very useful to P&G, as it helped the retail giant to share workflow between many individual laboratories, or groups of labs that comprised P&G’s Research and development division. The PLM software helped to link labs together to standardize processes or share information.”
It is true that PLM benefits companies of all sizes by reducing costs associated with data management but it also does something much more, something P&G highly values – it streamlines workflow between departments. All too often as a concept moves through the various channels and chains of commands files get lost or can’t be shared because of incompatibility issues. New data management solutions eliminate those problems by offering cloud solutions and new methods of tackling PLM. Companies wanting to not only reduce expenses but also needing to share information between departments more effectively must adopt new data management solutions.
