The impact of globalization on the aerospace industry is immense. New aerospace projects incorporate numerous technological innovations and represent a major advance in aircraft design. Complex design methodologies, combined with a requirement to collaborate with suppliers across the globe, require robust PLM implementations to manage the entire product lifecycle. Working with partners and suppliers around the world to develop increasingly complex products requires clear communication and coordination.
Aerospace companies are commonly faced with information that is disconnected and spread across many organizations, making configuration management of their products an extremely laborious, error-prone and time-intensive process. PLM enables aerospace manufacturers to share and control data during product planning, design and production.
