CAD software revolutionized the way we design and build products. However, it also led to a huge increase in the amount of data that must be effectively managed by an organization. Unmanaged data can cause serious delays, errors and lost time to market. PDM software can help but not all companies are using it.
PDM solutions can help by providing:
- Centralized control of engineering data
- Easier ways to reuse design data
- Facilitated collaboration with all stakeholders
- Better IP security
This survey-based eBook from Engineering.com takes a closer look at how PDM solutions are being used, barriers to widespread use, what innovations in PDM are coming, and the inherent benefits of gaining control over your engineering data.
