  • PRODUCT LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY HELPS MANUFACTURERS EVOLVE (TECHNOLOGY FOCUS)
  • Summary
  • PLM technology is evolving as manufacturers demand more functionality
  • SRM processes are becoming an integral part of PLM solutions
  • More support for outsourcing continues to be demanded by manufacturers
  • PLM vendors are looking to provide support for outsourced product development
  • Managing contract manufacturers is a feature that continues to emerge in PLM technology
  • Integration with MES systems allows manufacturers to bridge the enterprise to plant-floor divide
  • Technical documentation has potential, but needs to 'extend' itself more
  • Visualization needs to be carefully developed before being offered to external parties
  • In order to reduce time to market, digital manufacturing solutions are emerging
  • The PLM industry's dynamics continue to shift as go-to-market strategies alter
  • A range of developments have occurred in the PLM space including major M&A activity
  • Siemens Automation & Drives acquires UGS, one of the largest PLM vendors
  • Dassault Systemes acquires MatrixOne to gain industry expertise and technology
  • PTC acquires Itedo to further consolidate its hold on the technical documentation market
  • The mid-market is being targeted by PLM vendors yet there remains a lot of work to be done
  • Datamonitor predicts more consolidation as the global PLM market continues to grow
  • SAP continues to lead mindshare in the PLM space
  • The PLM market is growing at a rapid rate, providing lots of opportunity for vendors
  • The discrete industry represents the largest opportunity for PLM vendors
  • While smaller than discrete, batch manufacturing still provides significant opportunity
  • The sector spending the least on PLM software will be process manufacturing
  • Global PLM revenues are spread fairly evenly, but North America is the largest market
