What is The Connection Between Accelerating Product Complexities, Systems Thinking, and PLM Platforms?

Thursday, August 26th, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. ET

Digital Transformation and Digitalization of Engineering are two key initiatives that providers of next generation products depend on to control accelerating product complexities. The goal is always the same: faster time to market, better quality, and reduced costs. But since these efforts are no longer specific to a particular discipline (ex: mechanically driven companies increasingly becoming software driven) they can no longer rely strictly on BOM-centric thinking and must embrace system-centric thinking. System-centric approach allows to see how sub-systems interact on a functional level which results in faster and less risky insertion of emerging technologies and the latest best-in-class tools. It is also pivotal to an effective and timely system-level integration with sub-systems provided by supply chain that accelerates validation and verification of the product.

Join Chad Jackson, Chief Analyst and CEO, Lifecycle Insights, and Paweł Chądzyński, Senior Director Product Marketing at Aras, in their live discussion of the role of Systems Thinking and PLM platform have in effectively managing accelerating product complexities.
