Editor's Notes
- Speaker notes: There is a trend today you may have heard about called the “Internet of Things”… This describes a world were devices not only interact with people, but with each other, communicating information between devices to direct actions that can be programmed to run automatically, without human intervention. New categories of devices are being created to support this trend to communicate with devices you have today such as cell phones, and appliances, plus new categories of wearable devices for fitness monitoring and home automation as well as thousands of industrial automation applications.
- Speaker notes: The expansion of devices to fill the Internet of Things brings challenges to electronics companies to be innovative, while managing the increased complexity of electronic and software content embedded within devices that are always getting smaller and smaller. And, the quality and performance of these devices needs to remain high and costs low to be competitive. In order to meet the needs of the market, electronics companies have greatly expanded their product mix. This product proliferation is creating huge challenges for companies to remain agile and respond to a rapidly changing market for new and innovative products. Time to market is critical, but getting the right product to market, with high quality at low cost is also important As the electronics companies expand their market reach, they tend to partner with electronics manufacturing service (EMS) providers to produce parts globally in local markets. This adds significant complexity to program execution as they must now manage a larger base of operations with secure collaboration to deliver to the market expectations in each of these regions. Electronics companies will face larger risks in terms of missing cost, time, and quality targets. Visibility to program execution will be critical.
- Speaker notes: To address these trends and new innovation focus areas that require greater speed to market and increased complexity, it is important to ensure the extended team can collaborate across the organization to leverage a product development environment that can bring together the different design domains in a unified development environment. Making this full context or complete product definition available to all the members of the distributed team allows them to design their products effectively while ensuring they meet cost and quality goals. By eliminating silo’s of information, you can capture, manage and share the mechanical, electronic, and software designs and share knowledge required for each person and domain involved in the development of the product.
- The key to improving transparency, accuracy and responsiveness in program execution across the value chain is engineering collaboration using PDM. Let’s talk about what we mean by PDM.
- Managing today’s products is not as simple as keeping track of your design data. <BUILD>Other information, such as documentation, supplier data, manufacturing information, customer requirement and more all have an impact on what an engineer needs to do. <BUILD>In many cases, engineers find themselves searching through irrelevant information to find the design data they need to work on. <BUILD>And once they find something, often times is out of date or obsolete <BUILD> <BUILD> They often struggle to figure out how it got to this point (why was this piece added?) And where exactly it needs to go from here.
- PDM can help. With PDM, engineers can quickly and easily find exactly what they are looking for.
- Once you find what you need, you can understand the context of what you’re working on – without wading through irrelevant information.
- And PDM provides process management capabilities that help you understand the history of what you’re working on, and what to do with it to move forward.
- You can work smarter, not harder, to deliver performing products to market at the right time. With PDM: Design data is easy to find, share and re-use – saving you time and money. Release processes are standardized and optimized – eliminating confusion and getting products to market on time. Documents are managed WITH the product – making sure everything you need to define your product is in synch and easy to find. Changes are implemented quickly and accurately – helping you respond faster to customer needs and issues. Today we will focus on a couple areas that help deliver these benefits.
- When it comes to collaborating – with your team, with the rest of the organization, or with outside partners, it is critical to be able to track all the documentation that helps to define your product.
- There is a lot more that defines your part other than just the CAD design. There’s customer specifications or requirements, control plans, FEMAs, test results, supplier contracts, etc. With PDM in Teamcenter, you can manage all the documentation that helps define a part (or assembly or an entire products) aligned with the product itself. By managing all this information in Teamcenter, you can easily search and edit, control versions and revisions, use in workflows, define templates, etc. One of the key things to take away is that those documents are tied to the product itself. That means if you are working on a product, you have clear visibility to the documentation driving it’s development. Often times, one of the road blocks to getting users to manage documents in a PDM system is usability. People who aren’t engineers are reluctant to sign up for putting documents in a system they don’t otherwise use or understand. We enable users to work directly from familiar desktop tools – such as word or outlook. They can view a document, make changes or comments, and save it right back to Teamcenter without ever leaving their desktop tool. We call this transparent PDM.
- With PDM in Teamcenter, you can manage documents and product together. All documentation that defines a product is securely managed in one place. There is no searching for missing documents or working with documents that are out-of-date or obsolete. You have one place to find all the product information. Documents evolve with the product across the lifecycle, keeping them in sync and up-to-date. Documents are easily captured, updated and re-used with familiar desktop tools. This makes it easier to extend PDM to the rest of your enterprise to accurately manage all needed documentation.
- When we talk about PDM, another critical area of concern is responding to customer needs.
- The key to responding to customer issues and needs is effective change management. When you need to make a change to the product, PDM helps you implement change quickly, accurately and comprehensively. With impact analysis capabilities, you have complete understanding of the scope of change. What data is impacted? What people are affected by this change? What processes are in progress that may be impacted? With an accurate understanding of impact, you can more clearly assess the cost and timing of change. Flexible processes help you manage the “right size” change. This means you can expedite simple change or formally control complex change. You have the flexibility to implement and execute change in a way that is right for your organization and for a given change. Workflows and schedules help you automate you change processes to execute most effectively. History and signoff reports help to automatically track changes. This provides full change traceability.
- Change management in Teamcenter is very flexible. From issue and resolution tracking, to simple change management, to managing complex changes across complex organizations – you determine the right level of data and process management. In this example, we use easy search and reporting capabilities to find an issue we’d like to know more about. We can see that the issue is being addressed by a change, and can continue to interrogate for additional information. A change often addresses more than one problem or issue. This information is tracked, and is a part of the complete change history. A critical advantage to change management in Teamcenter, is that you can understand the impact of change. In this example, we can see the change item, and everything related to that change – from parts and assemblies, to documentation, to project plans and other changes that might be impacted. We can drill through the relationships to get more information. Understanding the impact of change is vital to accurately predict the cost and timing associated with that change. As the change evolves and is better understood, impacted items, reference information, and all other details pertinent to that change are easily tracked and recorded as part of the history of the change. You have the flexibility to execute change in a way that is right for your organization. You can use project schedules and workflows to automate your change processes. Here you can see the workflow this change is going through – and can drill down into any step to get additional information. The signoff history is one more tool to help provide full change traceability. This history, as well as all the associated information we’ve seen, are tracked together as part of the change – in a single environment for full change traceability.
- With PDM in Teamcenter, you can implement change quickly, accurately, and comprehensively. When it comes to managing change, Teamcenter provides an optimal balance of flexibility and control to ensure the right process is used for every change The impact of change is clearly understood, providing a clear picture of cost and time required for a change. Everyone affected by a change is aware of it, so nothing falls through the cracks - there are no errors or last minute scrambles at the end of the process Throughout the change process, all decisions and changes are fully documented for complete traceability
