Oxford, England. March 24 2015 -- There are widespread examples of good practice and advanced development in PLM, and these are often publicised in case studies as "Best Practice".

 

However, such examples are always presented in isolation. With no common parameters or metrics to make comparisons, the viewpoint of "Best" is entirely subjective.

 

The first step in capturing PLM Best Practice at an industry-wide level, and structuring it in a way that everyone can use, is to define what PLM Best Practice actually is.

 

The PLMIG has therefore published an updated definition of PLM Best Practice as a high-level starting point for the concept.

 

This will be developed in more detail during the course of the year as the PLMIG programme for 2015 formalises the most effective working methods of its members into a neutral, practical structure.

 

The PLM Interest Group
The PLM Interest Group is the leading neutral industry group for PLM. It has produced the PLM Project Justification Handbook for PLM financial justification; the PLMuERP Handbook for enterprise-wide PLM-ERP integration; as well as tools for Benchmarking, Maturity Measurement and Self-Assessment.
