8 ways that PLM improves design review accuracy and efficiency
Accurate, up-to-date information is crucial to a
correctly manufactured product. Data that can't be
identified correctly, or has ambiguous content, or has
simply "gone missing" can't contribute to the quality of a
product. The essential output of the engineering process is
not a product, but rather the information necessary for
replicating that product consistently and accurately.
PDXpert PLM provides a comprehensive set of capabilities for
efficient and effective design reviews:
- Rely on a central electronic repository for CAD files,
assembly instructions, inspection procedures and other
design and production data
- View assembly markups that highlight each child item's
proposed state (From/To or NoChange)
- Explore assembly structures using fast, easy assembly
drill-downs
- Get a consolidated list of items affected on each change
form
- Perform attribute-driven text searches for documents, parts
and change forms
- Make item-level task assignments for design remediation
- Assess the financial impact of changes with dispositioning
expenses
- Enjoy flexible engineering release management with
customizable approval workflow
These functions translate directly into real benefits
including increased sales revenue through faster product
releases; lower product costs by using more accurate data;
and lower administrative overhead by providing important
supporting information (like cost roll-ups) automatically.
