Extending PLM Into Manufacturing
TriStar PLM Solutions knows Exponential growth in customer-driven product configurations requires manufacturers to find more flexible ways of production. Combine that with supply chain interruptions, evolving safety regulations, and time-to-market pressures, and the challenges can be daunting.
Manufacturing process management (MPM) provides the tools and methodologies for today’s dynamic plant-specific manufacturing environments, all coordinated through PLM. MPM brings together the shop floor with engineering, suppliers, logistics, and quality for a more connected and agile enterprise. As the 2022 Manufacturing Outlook is coming back quickly, it will be even more important to invest in tools that will help your company and its manufacturing process management.
Reducing Time for Industrial Ramp-Up with PLM Manufacturing Process Management
Simply designing the best product is not enough. You need to launch it without delays if you hope to maintain a competitive advantage. A slower-than-desired ramp-up of production capacity can lead to lost sales, while inherent issues in quality can damage brand reputation.
With a single source of truth to product data as the basis for MPM, associativity, traceability, change control, and security are all created, then automated for concurrent engineering and manufacturing. Planners will have greater confidence in such data and benefit from fewer errors in their manual processes.
Companies can accelerate time to manufacturing, ensuring that small changes in engineering don’t have a large impact on production. Watch the video to see how Polaris deployed MPM.
PLM Manufacturing Process Management: The Right Data at The Right Time
The manufacturing bill of material (MBOM) is the key to how the manufacturing process runs. It is where you anchor your product configuration rules and introduce new materials. From the MBOM, manufacturing process management allows you to see how your product is assembled. With PTC’s MPM capabilities, data gathered from the shop floor can be looped back for greater process efficiencies. Technical work instructions are then made available to the end user on-demand, whether on a screen or with AR, for faster and more accurate execution.
