    1. Each part of your product goes through concept, design, prototype and then is used. So if you could reuse a single part, you could save this development cost for that part. Windchill PLM could help you in this.
    2. As your processes related to Design & Developments are captured in a system, which is as easy as browsing internet, process are completed swiftly and status is transparent to everyone. Thus faster design and development life cycle, hence faster time to market.
    3. Windchill PLM and your ERP go hand in hand. Yes they are complimentary to each other.
    4. Around 80% of the cost of the product is locked during design phase, so if we could optimize the design phase, we shall save a fortune.
    5. Everyone has realized the importance of ERP, However, if PLM is implemented returns shall be significant too. Moreover, if PLM compliments ERP, we shall be getting enormous benefits.
    6. Design data grows like weed, its up to us whether we manage it and exploit it for the business advantage or let it eat the hard disk space sitting idle.
      To mange your design data well, use Windchill.
    7. If you are facing issues like
      Difficult to locate latest and correct design data
      Deletion of data by mistake
      overwrite by mistake
      Unauthorized access of information
      data stolen
      difficult to search existing design
      duplicate data
      poorly manged data
      accessing information from multiple location/platformAnd this is causing delay and cost to your organization.
      Then this is the time of upgrading to Windchill PDM/PLM
    8. If you need various view of BOM, like 
      Engineering BOM, 
      MBOM, 
      Purchase BOM, 
      Service BOM
      As Planed BOM
      AS Designed BOM
      As Manufactured BOM
      etc.
      That too mutually integrated.
      Answer is Windchill PDM/PLM.
    9. If you wish to search existing parts/components design by material, OD, Thickness, Geometry, Parameters etc or any combination of those.
      Think of Windchill PDM/PLM.
    10. Do you wish to keep your compliance documents along with your product design, so that its easily accessible without wasting time on search.
      You must go for Windchill PDM/PLM.
    11. If you wish to maintain complete design process since RFQ till Delivrery and service in one system like following sequence
      RFQ-
      Proposal-
      LOI-
      Concept-
      Plan-
      Deign-
      Change Management-
      EBOM-
      MBOM-
      ERP-
      Service BOM-
      Service Manual-
      User Manual-
      Quality Management-
      Analytics-
      IOT (internet of Things)
    12. Change Management:
      Differentiate between minor vs major change.Use automated fast process for minor change, and more controlled, detailed study process for major change.Do impact analysis.Each individual affected by change is fully aware of every thing related to change.Keep track of the change.every thing in a system which is used to manage your product data.That system is windchill.
    13. Change Management in Design
      If your change management is not up to the mark, your concern may include
      Misunderstood
      Bureaucratic
      Changes are not traceable
      Production can stall
      Inefficient

    15. If design review could happen online/real time with out 3D CAD software, you could remove biggest time waster, that is cross functional technical review meetings.So ask us how we could help you on this.
    16. PLM Implementation success is dependent on People, process and technology, here people are the key.
    17. Generally 50% of the revenue comes from the products which has been launched in last 5 year.                                                                                   And to get consistent revenue growth company should have a proper product innovation strategy in place.                                                                           And then a perfect product portfolio management is a must.
