OPENING KEYNOTE: NEW THINKING - CONQUERING TOUGH ECONOMIC TIMES WITH PLM
|
The knee-jerk reaction in tough economic times is to halt doing anything new. However, organizations that want to survive and even thrive should use the severe economic environment to rethink the way they create, build, and service products and to drive change through their organizations and into their supply chains. PLM can enable both lean efficiencies and innovative effectiveness.

| EXTENDING THE VALUE OF PLM |
| PLM AS AN ENTERPRISE TECHNOLOGY: STRATEGIES TO MOVE FROM AN ENGINEERING CENTRIC PDM SYSTEM TO AN ENTERPRISE PLM SOLUTION |
Many companies have adopted a PDM system to manage engineering centric data, such as CAD models and drawings, engineering specifications, etc. Real value though comes from leveraging product information and integrating business processes across all enterprise functions, something only full scale PLM systems can enable.
- PDM and PLM: Understanding their scope and position in the enterprise
- The value of PDM and PLM: What costs and benefits can I expect?
- How to get from PDM to PLM? A review of different options and how to best leverage an investment in an existing PDM system

| CREATE AND RETAIN VALUE |
| INTEGRATING STRATEGIC AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS TO PRODUCE HIGH VALUE IN A TROUBLED ECONOMY |
In today's challenging economy business folks in Innovation, R&D and New Product Development must make the best decisions possible about allocating capital and human resources to those projects that have the highest chance for creating exceptional value. This means carefully evaluating each project, including understanding how uncertainty affects revenue, margin, profitability at both project and portfolio levels.
- Identify the few — but critical — factors that drive project value
- Forecast project and portfolio value where there is considerable uncertainty about market size, margins, pricing and other areas
- Allocate resources to projects with the best chance for producing high value
- Cut or reduce resources without cutting your future
