Shipbuilding is becoming more complex. Owner requirements are becoming more specific, and new technologies need to be incorporated. Legacy, disconnected data management tools are no longer enough to manage projects across global supply chains.
Adopting a centralized, easy-to-access data management system enables you to efficiently find, share and update information across all stakeholders — breaking down silos and helping globally distributed teams collaborate seamlessly.
This ebook explores how software as a service (SaaS) product lifecycle management (PLM) empowers companies to quickly address today’s challenges and accelerate product development. Discover how cloud-based PLM is ushering in the future of shipbuilding.
Many shipbuilders are realizing the benefits of PLM solutions that enable them to manage product-related processes and information across various domains. They allow you to manage all your CAD designs, organize documents, automate key processes and visualize your designs in a single environment. Cloud-based SaaS brings added benefits to PLM, including the ability to accelerate product development by leveraging existing knowledge to support design reuse, manage change and speed cycle time. With SaaS PLM, product development and manufacturing teams can collaborate more effectively, sharing the same environment to manage all product information and ensure that market, compliance and regulatory targets are met.
