When growth changes the equation
You might not call it a PLM problem. Yet.
-
Product data is harder to manage
PDM, shared drives, spreadsheets, email.
-
Change is harder to control
Missed updates. Rework.
-
The business needs more from engineering
Quality and manufacturing are waiting on your data.
-
Today’s systems weren’t built for tomorrow’s scale
A second site or product line will break them.
Start with the foundation
The decisions you make now shape what’s possible later.
Move too narrowly and you build limitations. Solve everything at once and you build complexity. We help you find the foundation in between.
- PDM or CAD vault
- Shared drives and file naming
- Spreadsheet BOMs
- Informal, email-driven change
- A governed product structure
- Controlled, traceable change
- One reliable source of product data
- An integration-ready Windchill architecture
- Quality and manufacturing processes
- Service and field data
- ERP integration
- Additional sites and broader PLM
Our approach
Implementation gets you live. Adoption gets you value.
PLM Strategy & Roadmap
A phased roadmap your executive team can approve.
Process & Solution Design
Product structure, change process and ownership, defined first.
Windchill Implementation
Configured, migrated, first release through the new process.
Optimization & Growth
Quality, manufacturing and ERP, when the business is ready.
Enterprise PLM expertise behind every engagement.
Your consultants come from ArcherGrey and have implemented Windchill at enterprise scale. They know which early decisions get expensive later, and which don’t matter yet.
