Welcome to the PLMIG

The PLM Interest Group has built on collaboration from all parts of the PLM industry over the past six years to develop tools and methodologies that address the primary issues of PLM. The main focus in 2010 will be on PLM Standards, supported by a number of themes that support the overall development of PLM.

PLM Standards

The PLMIG is running a structured process to enable PLM standards to be created. Discussions started in December 2009 with input and feedback on this web site, supported by a series of published articles from a wide range of contributors in 2PLM.

This has provided the basis for a Global PLM Standards Workshop that will be held in Oxford, UK on 24-25 March, and that will provide a platform for users, vendors, integrators, consultants, academics and other organisations to work together to generate the first standards material.

PLM Journal

The four issues of the PLM Journal published in 2009 form a reference set that encapsulates the state of neutral PLM knowledge at the start of 2010.

The Q4 2009 Issue looks at what the PLM industry as a whole needs to do in order to become more professional.

The Q3 2009 Issue covers the relationship between PLM and the business, from strategy down to the generation of metrics.

The Q2 2009 Issue explains the Path to PLM, deals with the relationship between PLM and PDM, and describes the different project management techniques that apply to them.

The Q1 2009 Issue outlines the PLM managers' discussions at the User Forum launch, and a new framework for calculating the Commercial Value of PLM.
