PDM to PLM Case Study

Blog • PLM & PDM

Volvo Construction Equipment (CE) was facing several challenges that were hindering its ability to work efficiently, reduce the cost of poor quality, and get products to market faster. Among these challenges was the fact that multiple siloed product data management (PDM) systems were in place, which made it difficult for teams to access and share information.

In order to overcome these challenges, Volvo CE decided to implement a new PDM system that would be more centralized and easier to use. The new system has helped the company achieve its goals by enabling more efficient ways of working, reducing the cost of poor quality, and getting products to market faster. Thanks to the new PDM system, Volvo CE is now able to operate more effectively!

The global manufacturer mentioned above made the decision to move from PDM to PLM in order to improve the following:

• Ease of use for their engineers
• Collaboration between team members
• Ability to share data with external partners

As a result of making this switch, they were able to achieve the following:

• A drastic improvement in efficiency, with engineers now able to find and use information much more quickly
• A reduction in errors, as collaboration between team members, became smoother and data was better organized and shared
• An increase in agility, as they could now respond more quickly to changes in requirements from their customers!
