We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Lifecycle Management",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release PLM software helps with frequent design changes from
Omnify Software, which we summarised at the time by saying "The direct sharing of part and BOM information between Empower PLM and Sage MAS 90 ERP eliminated manual data entry errors and ensures accuracy of product change information across the
enterprise".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Software suite streamlines simulation process from
Dassault Systemes: "Simulia SLM accelerates the product development lifecycle by providing timely access to the right information through secure storage, search and retrieval functionality".
In January 2008, we covered the news from iKnowledge Solutions
- take a look at PLM co-operation boosts productivity of engineers
which says: "TechniGraphics has agreed to collaborate with iKS to sell and implement i.get.it and iCheck applications".
Take a look also at the news release from Dassault Systemes, PLM suite has global appeal for LG,
as well as Programme membership adds PLM to measurement from NVision,
and Italian aerospace firm cuts the cost of PLM from Siemens Automation and Drives.
