Robust, dynamic, easily configurable — hardly words most would use to describe traditional PDM (product data management) or PLM (product lifecycle management). But when Microsoft set out to consolidate and standardize its hardware groups on a core product development platform, its alternative approach — building on top of an open, cloud-based PLM platform and leveraging its expertise in agile methodologies — led to a global deployment completed in record time and packed with more functionality than its previous PLM systems.

After a recent acquisition, Microsoft IT needed a unified way to create, manage, and release hardware product data. Using an agile development methodology, we were able to quickly build and release a new consolidated product data management system.

SOLIDWORKS Enterprise PDM Diagnostics is a standalone application for the monitoring and troubleshooting of a SOLIDWORKS^® Enterprise PDM installation using flexible widgets.

Aras Innovator PLM can manage the engineering process from concept through end of life, and Lisa will show how easy it is to use Aras Innovator PLM with connectors to CAD and other authoring tools such as MS Office.

While attending the ARAS user conference ACE 2015 Alexey Kilyakov, director of PLM Department at AMC Bridge, gave a presentation on SRRS™, the new Aras® Innovator 10.0 based system, developed by AMC Bridge. This system allows technical support personnel to register and manage service requests coming from customers.

SOLIDWORKS Enterprise PDM does an outstanding job managing SOLIDWORKS designs, but today's global businesses need more. Companies need additional functionality for business needs at the enterprise level, and control over processes that extend beyond engineering to encompass the entire company, while still retaining core product design functions and capabilities.
