Datamation is please to announce the forthcoming publication of the
Datamation PLM Model 2010 This Fifth Edition of the Datamation PLM Model Report, aimed at programme managers and implementers as well as CEOs, CIOs, CFOs and investors in related technology. The report provides a clear picture of how PLM, as defined in the report, can provide a vehicle for business improvement and value creation that goes well beyond data and document management. Central to the Datamation PLM Model is the notion that business applications deliver value through the use and reuse of information assets. This simple idea is used to explain most of the seemingly intractable problems that organisations face today. Here are a few: “Most current approaches focus on moving data as bits and bytes instead of focusing on how to add value to the business. In effect, addressing the symptom and not the main issue”, Dr Kais Al-Timimi, Managing Director of Datamation. “Less that 50% of investment in PLM solutions today is spent on software licenses, the remainder typically goes on related services and that does not include data migration services.”, Peter Strookman, Managing Director of InsidePLM and contributor to the report “Operating and maintaining PLM installations can be a nightmare”, Joep Mintjens, Managing Director of PLM Consultancy and contributor to the report.
