Enterprise PLM architecture is a critical component of any manufacturing organization’s overall strategy, as it helps to align technology with business goals and objectives. However, all existing PLM platforms were created back in the days when “SQL database” was in the mainstream, and therefore all PLM implementations these days, except…
PDM (or PLM) was born as idea of centralization of data and processes under single roof (actually database). Back 30-40 years the idea of central data storage combined with data and file control was very much appealing to large organization. Enterprise PDM and later PLM systems were born. Major PLM…
Manufacturing landscape and technology are changing fast these days. Most of existing PLM platforms were developed 15+ years ago. Therefore, a question about new PLM platforms is getting more vocal. What will be a foundation for that platform? How existing implementations and technologies evolve? What will be a role of standards…
I just came back AU2012 in Las Vegas. Among many meetings, I had during AU, I attended Innovation Forum – The Reality of the cloud. The reality of events these days that you can attend actively by participating in social networking via Twitter. One of the tweets during the cloud…
Cloud is one of the most discussable topics in the industry. In the consumer web, cloud seems to be a proven option. I think, people are feeling very comfortable in the cloud these days. Days when people afraid to put their credit cards on the website for e-commerce gone forever….
I read a blog post by Stephen Porter of Zero Wait State called – The PLM State: Why can’t we all just get along?. I think Stephen raised an important question of vendors co-existence in the engineering software ecosystem. It made me think about PLM Software Landscape and trends going…
Somebody asked me last week about how I see th future of PLM… Does it look like-BOM or like-Workflow? I found this question very interesting. Bill of Materials and Workflow (or process management) are fundamentally two most important pieces of PDM and PLM systems for many years. So, we have…
Yesterday, I attended COFES Russia / isicad 2010 forum in Moscow. My presentation on the forum was about my view on the future of TLA (Three Letter Acronyms) in Engineering Software. You can see slides of my presentation below.

I had chance to analyze what will be the role of Augment reality before on my PLM think tank. I’d like to share with you a very cool commercial video clip from MyChic. It is nice to see how initial ideas introduced in the product like 3DVIA Mobile were captured in other places. What…
We are coming to the new decade, and I found interesting to drop my thoughts related to what I’d expect in 2010s from Product Lifecycle Management. I think last 10 years were the period of initial introducing of PLM concepts on the market. Initial came in early 2000s as a…
