e-PLM product development management software

A fresh approach to product
development management

e-PLM is part of a Product Lifecycle Management system that increases speed to market and facilitates collaborative global communication. e-PLM enables companies to organize and share common business processes and product information with design, product development, planning, engineering, manufacturing and sourcing suppliers around the world.

To succeed in todays global economy: companies must deliver the right products to market, at the right time and at the right price. These challenges are intensified for fast-paced sewn products companies, where short product lifecycles and thin profit margins are commonplace.

To survive in these highly competitive markets, savvy retailers, brand managers and manufacturers have extended their supply chains to leverage the best available mix of raw materials, labor, and product expertise from around the globe. In this era of product innovation and sourcing, sewn-products companies face a new and greater set of challenges as they must:

	Enhance creativity and collaboration on new ideas
Efficiently define concepts and costs, determine viability
Develop and deliver new products to market faster
Manage frequent changes across global supply chain
Track & manage critical timelines and supplier relationships

e-PLM Solves Todays Challenges

New Generation Computing, Inc. (NGC), a recognized leader in industry-specific sourcing, production, and business management solutions, developed e-PLM in direct response to the changing product development and management needs of todays sewn products companies.

In contrast to traditional CAD-based PLM systems, e-PLM is the first product data management solution to incorporate the industry expertise, technology architecture, and implementation approach necessary to support the full range of product management decisions that are critical in todays supply chain-driven business environment.
