How many tasks are competing for your engineers' attention? Consumer durables development increasingly spans mechanical, electrical and software teams, and as products get smarter and more connected, those interdependencies are growing. When product information is hard to find or out of date, your engineers lose time, your launches slip, and your systems strain to keep up. According to Tech-Clarity, 92% of consumer products companies say lost engineering productivity negatively impacts the business. Read the ebook to see where time is being lost across your teams and what PLM users report improving.
