Overview of PLM
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is a businss strategy that helps manage how product data is controlled and how business access those data. Processes are launched, controlled and released in a set fashion to allow consistent, predictable product with fewer errors and faster throughput. Below are some aspects of PLM that can be of benefit to your company.
Product Change Management
Considering products evolve over time, it is essential to control design and changes to that design.
By managing those changes, they occur only when you want and only the way you want them to occur. No longer will changes be implemented "under the table" without the proper people aware of what is going on.
Furthermore, as these changes are sent to production, they have a chance to "weigh in" for potential manufacturing limitations and insight that can potentially help identify design flaws the engineer did not spot prior to release.
Rockwell Consults can help identify the change process and assist by doing the following:
- Review the change process to determine if it adequately addresses the company’s change management process
- Provide suggestions and feedback for handling changes based on industry “best practices”
- Work with Management, Engineering, Document Control, QA, Production, Product Development and Operations do verify all departments have sufficient input to the change process at the right time
Process Improvement
We can review additional process and approval workflows to determine what changes can improve design-to-production times, better manage document control, and improve overall business functions.
Primary focus revolves around design to ERP processes, but also handles any task-driven processes that may be beneficial for your company.
Regulatory and Guideline Compliance
We can provide expert advice in conforming to governmental and industry recognized regulations. Rockwell Consults, LLC has worked with some of the following requirements:
- ITAR
- ISO (9XXX, 14XXX, etc.)
- REACH
- RoHS
- GxP
- FDA 21 CFR part 11
We can aid you in meeting these requirements as needed.
Data Accessibility
Rockwell Consults, LLC can help bring design data to your fingertips, such as drawings, models, and schematics by maintaining them in one location.
Design information can be limited to few or seen by all. If PDF's of data are all that are required, they can be maintained alongside real CAD data with no disconnect of information.
BOM's (Bills of Material) can be housed in the same format they were used to be created so that additional changes do not disrupt existing design.
