Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)

Effective engineering change management is crucial for organizations that design, manufacture, or maintain complex products. Here are some key services offered by InESS:

Change Management Support:

Managing and documenting changes within the PLM system, including system enhancements, updates, and adjustments to workflows. This ensures that changes are tracked, approved, and communicated properly.

Process Optimization:

Analyzing and improving existing processes within the PLM system to enhance efficiency, eliminate bottlenecks, and ensure that product data flows smoothly across teams (R&D, design, production, etc.).

Obsolescence Tracking:

Managing the end-of-life (EOL) process for products, including tracking component obsolescence, planning for replacements, and ensuring that the PLM system reflects these changes in product data.

Transition Management:

Managing the transition from production to end-of-life, ensuring that all stakeholders are informed of phase-outs, and that supply chain and production planning are adjusted accordingly.
