Next Generation
Product lifecycle management (PLM) is
the process of managing the entire
lifecycle of a product from its
conception, through design and
manufacture, to service and disposal.
PLM integrates people, data, processes
and business systems and provides a
product information backbone for
companies and their extended
enterprise.
