Press Release Summary: Hertzler Systems Profiled in The Machinist Regarding Importance of PLM
Press Release Body: According to Evan J. Miller, President and CEO of Hertzler Systems, "PLM benefits include a reduced time-to-market, establishing benchmarks for improved product quality, reduced prototyping costs and savings through the re-use of original data. As with Lean Six Sigma principles, PLM provides a framework for product optimization as well as reduced waste and savings through the complete integration of engineering workflows."
Manufacturing journalist Thomas R. Cutler, profiled the importance of Product Lifecycle Management in the current issue of The Machinist. Cutler suggested, "Product lifecycle management (PLM) is described as the process of managing the complete lifecycle of a product. It starts with its conception, covers designing and manufacturing, and includes service and ends at disposal. It serves as one of the four cornerstones of the IT structure of any corporation. Apart from managing communications and information with their customers (CRM-Customer Relationship Management), suppliers (SCM-Supply Chain Management) and the resources within the enterprise (ERP-Enterprise Resource Planning), all manufacturing engineering companies need to develop, describe, manage and communicate information about their products."
