I enjoyed to read Simplicity is Hard by Larry Cheng. Had few straitforward thoughts out of this. Our PLM systems are damn complex. How to make it simple? Few proposals: 

1/ Flat User Inerface -no complex structures

2/ To visualize only what do you realy need 

3/ Tag & Search everywhere 

What do you think?
