48%-[Product, Lifecycle, Management, PLM] Can ERP Speak PLM? (4 Pages)
by Jim Brown
Aug 1, 2003
Abstract : Vendor hype about Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) has many manufacturers confused about whether they should look for a ''best of breed'' PLM solution or evaluate PLM solutions from their ERP vendors. All things being equal, most companies would prefer to have fewer software vendors. This has some people asking whether their ERP vendor can support their PLM initiatives, or in other words, ''Can ERP Speak PLM?''

46%-[Product, Lifecycle, Management, PLM] Service Lifecycle Management - Tapping into the Value of the Product Aftermarket (7 Pages)
by Jim Brown
Jun 11, 2003
Abstract : Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) addresses the full lifecycle of a product. The focus of most of the current PLM solutions, however, does not make the most of the value available from servicing products after they have been sold. Service Lifecycle Management (SLM) promises valuable business benefits after a product has been shipped to the customer, tapping into the value of the product aftermarket.

42%-[Product, Lifecycle, Management, PLM] If There's One Thing CRM Tells Us: Don't Do PLM the Same Way (5 Pages)
by David Smith
Jun 21, 2004
Abstract : Product lifecycle management (PLM) doesn't work, but it should. Fundamentally, the idea that we can design better products and bring them to market more quickly by leveraging the knowledge and experience in our own value chain and our customers and suppliers, is a sound one. It's just that buying PLM doesn't always allow that leverage. Industry's general approach and attitude to PLM very much mimics the early days of the customer relationship management (CRM) adoption, and there are lessons abound from that experience that should help when tackling the 'ifs' and 'hows' of PLM investment.

40%-[Product, Lifecycle, Management, PLM] Selecting a PLM Vendor (4 Pages)
by P.J. Jakovljevic & Jim Brown
Oct 17, 2003
Abstract : A product lifecycle management (PLM) strategy is a must for enterprises that live or die on the suitability, timeliness, quality, and sustainability of the products they bring to market. To that end, PLM has become a proven tool in increasing competitiveness amid the increased tendency to subcontract design and engineering tasks, to rush-deliver a variety of merchandise to market for satisfying ever-changing consumer demand, and amid the increase of custom-made products. Hence, the enterprises that consider product development a core competency should investigate PLM immediately to maintain their leadership in this area. Other companies should see PLM as a necessary requirement to maintain parity with competitors.

34%-[Product, Lifecycle, Management, PLM] Can ERP Speak PLM? Part Two: Examples and Recommendations (5 Pages)
by Jim Brown
Aug 2, 2003
Abstract : Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions have to work with many other systems, not just ERP, so integration is not a new issue for PLM vendors. Most PLM vendors recognize the need for integration and have addressed the need in their toolkits. The additional work comes from integrating the concepts and semantics of one system to the next, if this business level integration has not already been provided between the two systems. This can be a big challenge for best of breed vendors, who may need to rely on systems integrators for much of this conceptual and semantic integration.

27%-[Product, Lifecycle, Management, PLM] The Many Faces of PLM Part One: Event Summary (3 Pages)
by Jim Brown
Dec 29, 2003
Abstract : Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software solutions, like many of the application suites that have come before it, are a collection of different offerings that serve a common theme and contribute to overlapping value propositions. Like previous application suites, there is strategic value in approaching PLM as a set of inter-related requirements as opposed to just a collection of function-specific requirements. This is a report on the observations from the 2003 Product Development Manager’s Association (PDMA) Conference.
