2. Synonyms
We always hear about different jargons:
PDM Product Data Management
ePDM Electronic PDM
CPC Collaborative Product Commerce
cPDm Collaborative Product Definition Management
PLM Product Lifecycle Management
These terms don't mean the same thing and aren't interchangeable. These
concepts have evolved with changing business drivers, and each has
represented a new generation of the software application market, which
has also evolved rapidly. Clear definitions of these terms will help users
understand how each contributes to their missions during all phases of a
product life cycle
3. PDM
PDM is a set of applications and capabilities for
capturing and maintaining the definition of a product
and related data through all phases of a product's
life.
The four most commonly used PDM applications are
• Library functions (search and file check-in/check-out),
• Management of bills of materials (BOMs),
• Product configuration management (PCM) and
• Engineering change management (ECM).
PDM is a core enabler of CPC and PLM.

5. CPC
CPC is a mode of product and business development in which
product value chain partners, motivated by common
commercial interests, generate value by sharing product
assets, capital and intellectual property.
CPC applications emerged in the late 1990s, leveraging
Internet technology, to enable collaboration in product design
and new business development.
The Internet-based software technology that differentiated CPC
applications in the late 1990s has now become fundamental
to broad classes of applications. Given the ubiquity of CPC
architecture across a broad class of applications, CPC's
greatest value is as a business strategy.
6. PLM
PLM is a process for guiding products from idea
through retirement to deliver the greatest business
value to an enterprise and its trading partners.
PLM employs product information and business
analysis to support strategy, planning, management
and execution through each phase of a product's life
cycle.
PLM supports an enterprise's ability to monitor
activities, analyze challenges and bottlenecks, make
decisions and execute decisions.

• Knowledge management is a discipline that promotes a collaborative and
integrated approach to the creation, capture, organization, access and use
of an enterprise’s information assets. This includes databases, documents
and, most importantly, the uncaptured, tacit expertise and experience of
individual workers.
• Knowledge Management Activities
• Create – Business Objects
• Capture – Contents & Metadata
• Organize – Projects, Life Cycles, Cabinets
• Access – Control Access Rules & Authentication
• Use – Search, Access, Modify, Reports, Re-use …

Managing Relationships
33. Product Definition
• PLM Manages the Product knowledge by maintaining the relationships
with different objects.
• Enables users to navigate to the structure & get the required & valid
information instantaneously.
• Organizes data in different ways…
• By Projects
• In Life cycles
• Cabinets / Vaults
• PLM also uses search engine, which enables searching for information &
filtering it.
35. Release to Production
• Iterative changes in Product till the Production stage would
be managed in PLM.
• Manufacturing View of BOM would then be transferred to
ERP for transaction & cost management.
• All Process Documents like tooling drawings etc. would be
released in PLM
• Routings would be transferred to ERP.

60. What is Collaboration?
• A secure communications environment
• Geographically dispersed project teams
• within and across the extended enterprise
• A dynamic and unified view of product data
• 2D, 3D, tasks, schedules, notebooks, etc…
•Collaboration facilitates
• Allows for rapid iteration
• Extended data sharing with team members and with other
teams
• Is essential within the company and across companies
62. Collaboration
• Address full supply chain
• Vendors
• End-user customer
• Remote sites
• Different tools across sites, customers and vendors
• Two aspects:
• Make data available throughout the enterprise
• Visualization
• The ability to view the output of any application throughout an
enterprise
63. Collaboration

• Vendors
• End-user customer
• Remote sites
• Different tools across sites, customers and vendors
• Two aspects:
• Make data available throughout the enterprise
• Visualization
• The ability to view the output of any application throughout an
enterprise
This is the major
stumbling block to
enterprise
collaboration!
64. Product Visualization
• View product regardless of
location of data or
authoring application(s)
• Address heterogeneous
CAD systems into single,
viewable representation
66. PLM Architecture
• Most Enterprise Solutions use 3 tier Architecture:
•Relational Tables
“Persistent” Data Storage in the Database Tier
•Business Transactions
A company’s “Business Logic” captured in the Server Tier
“Presentation” of the User Interface in the Client Tier
•Web Browsers
•Java Applets
•HTML
•JavaScript
•CORBA
•COM
•Access Control
•Stored Procedures
What users see -->
<--
Data storage -->

67. Benefits of Web Architecture
Because PLM is designed for the
web, individually-designed and
geographically remote PLM systems
can be connected together into a
single, virtual system.
The result is a “federated”
enterprise system - a larger
system that comes together
through the interaction of
smaller, more manageable,
autonomous systems.

All kinds of data support both individual departments, as well as the overall effort of getting products out the door.
This data must be available to anyone with a legitimate need for it, in order to effectively do their job and make decisions which ensure &quot;right the first time&quot; results. It must also be able to encompass all the data required to support the product lifecycle.
The requirement, then, is for a single source of information across the enterprise

That’s simple. It means the technologies have to enable the manufacturers to get it RIGHT, the first time, every time. SDRC’s e-business enabled solutions do that .
In the CPC area, our e-business framework is the central point that will enable connections among people, among systems, and among applications that was never possible before. That translates to real gains in producitivity.
But it’s important to note, and a key differentiator for SDRC’s solution. While some suggest that CPC encompasses every aspect of the e-business equation, CPC needs to be much more than just a system for pointing to data. To meet industry’s needs, it must provide information and knowledge. That requires PKM. In fact, PKM is a necessary prerequisite to achieve the promises of CPC. Where the two categories intersect is the key to the entire puzzle: and that’s PDM.
Because when PKM is powered by a mature, fully functional PDM system, PKM helps companies understand the relationships between different pieces of information.
PDM allows data to be reused, and it becomes information. When information is reused, and the relationships among pieces of information are understood, it becomes knowledge. And, when knowledge is properly applied to the product lifecycle, the result is innovation. This is what a robust PDM system can deliver.
The results can not just bring incremental product improvements, but real quantum leaps forward. And that means products are not only faster to market, but they’re right to market.
