Advanced usage of PLM capability is complicated, often requiring a multi-phase, multi-year plan including a certain amount of business process transformation. The cornerstone of this effort is the Business Case. As product life cycles shorten, business process outsourcing accelerates, and global competition mushrooms, PLM claims the role of the essential governance engine and facilitator for collaborative product realization. The complicated dynamics throughout an extended enterprise of companies producing, upgrading, replacing and terminating their products can be coordinated under this single framework. LCS™ will develop a business case rationalizing the expenditures necessary and expected ROI to deploy a PLM foundation to support the business objectives.
