For those at the early stages of discovering and adopting PLM, the whole subject can seem like a big empty space. The good news is that PLM does have a structure, and there is a correct and effective way to guide your company through the process of PLM adoption. PLMIG toolsets provide a structured way of ensuring that a PLM implementation is performing at the highest level. This enables PLM Teams to address higher-level professional issues such as PLM Governance. Whatever the size and scale of your PLM implementation, one question remains the same:- "How do we know that we are doing It is time to capture the knowledge and experience of skilled and PLM practitioners, and to raise the worldwide standard and ambition of PLM.

The PLM industry needs a well-defined, worldwide professional structure for the people who work within it. The Professional PLM Initiative has been set up to fulfil this need, and is now running. If you are a PLM practitioner, this is something you should be involved with. The Networking Day in Wilmslow debated a range of issues around professionalism and confirmed the Roadmap for 2019-20. A Round Table Session at Siemens PLM Europe in Berlin has led to more companies joining the discussions about forming the Steering Group. The Steering Group is essential to the success of the Professional PLM Initiative. The process of forming the Steering Group has now started and will run throughout November.

The PLM Project Justification Handbook contains a standard, neutral methodology to quantify the costs, benefits and commercial value of implementing PLM. The PLM Delivery Handbook takes the justification of new PLM projects to a new level, enabling vendors to participate in the process and demonstrate their commitment to the results. The fact that both user and vendor have jointly calculated the target benefits is a major boost to gaining approval. The PLMuERP Handbook is the definitive, neutral working manual for effective integration of PLM and ERP. The Handbook formalises the neutral knowledge that exists on the subject. It enables the technical teams to work together to create a long-term strategy that will unify the two environments. The CEO Briefing Document provides a rapid, tailored explanation of "What PLM Is" to Board members and VPs. It gives a high-level overview of PLM principles, with examples that can be used to support presentations to the Board.
