Innovation is essential for companies to remain relevant in today's competitive environment. However, outdated processes, inefficient workflows, and repetitive tasks can hinder designers and engineers from fully tapping into their creative potential.

 

With a virtual product definition on the 3DEXPERIENCE® Platform on the cloud, teams can collaborate simultaneously on consistently updated data, effortlessly track changes, and identify issues early in the development process.

The platform enhances collaboration, visibility, and traceability, which accelerates design cycles, minimizes error risks, and allows teams to concentrate on innovation rather than lowvalue tasks that may impede progress.

When you're either newly adopting a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution or replacing an existing one, it's essential to seek out the common functionalities that any product lifecycle management software should provide.

 

Typical features may encompass bill of materials (BOM) management, product data management, digital mockups, project management, quality management, and more. You can find all these capabilities and beyond on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform hosted in the cloud.

 

These features will not only enhance the efficiency of engineering and product design but also streamline end-to end processes, elevate quality and sustainability, and minimize errors.

 

However, if your objective is to gain or maintain a competitive advantage in the industry, will traditional methods be sufficient?

To foster significant innovation, it’s essential to unify products, people, and data within a cohesive environment. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform in the cloud allows you to transcend conventional product lifecycle management and rethink your innovation strategy. Its cloud-based PLM solutions offer a single source of truth for your entire value network, enabling you to: Collaborate effortlessly, regardless of location Enhance creativity through virtual twin experiences Utilize a comprehensive and real-time perspective of your processes Develop more resilient products and meet sustainability goals

Engage in collaboration from the initial planning stages all the way through development and final release. Foster cross-team collaboration and enhance product development within a fully integrated online environment. This ensures that both internal teams and external collaborators are always aligned with a single, shared product definition, working with the most current information—while also safeguarding your intellectual property.

Optimize both local and global production to create and deliver products more quickly and efficiently by ensuring your data sources are current and pertinent to business decisions. This approach facilitates real-time collaborative design, improves decision-making, and speeds up design cycles.

Liberate your business from IT limitations by uniting all facets of your operations on a secure, cloud-based platform. This approach enhances collaboration, streamlines execution, and accelerates innovation.

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud not only allows you to share designs earlier in the product development cycle—thus enhancing workflows and minimizing technical errors—but it also fosters multidisciplinary collaboration. By utilizing a unified data repository and real time information, your designs will consistently reflect the precise product requirements.
