Four Ways to Launch Engineering Excellence in Aerospace and Defense

Equip your engineers with more value from your PLM solution to uplift value throughout your organization.

Elevate Engineering’s Potential with PLM

Aerospace and defense organizations rely on engineering innovation and quality to drive competitive advantage and brand reputation throughout the lifecycle. Product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions offer a set of key capabilities to help engineers activate their full potential.

Control Product Complexity

Build in Governance & Traceability 

Optimize Efficiency and Costs 

Remove Operational Silos

Discover how PLM unlocks engineering best practices to enable enterprise-wide collaboration:

Control Product Complexity with Configuration Management

For Aerospace and Defense organizations, configuration management can play a pivotal role in embracing product complexity with a BOM-centric model. Vital product and process information can be shared out from engineering to elevate manufacturing, sales, and service teams.

 

PLM configuration management capabilities eliminate data gaps, inefficiencies on the line, and quality issues—thanks to a continuous digital thread that extends through the entire product lifecycle.

 

 

 

 

 

Configuration management provides teams with actionable data. Discover how best-in-class A&D leaders trust Windchill PLM to streamline processes, validate design choices, and standardize information flow.

Build in Governance and Traceability with 
Change Management

Change management is a mission-critical capability for managing complexity and ensuring products are reliable, safe, and effective. It systematically captures any product and component modifications and propagates all updates across relevant departments.

 

PLM change management breaks down data silos and extends up-to-date information—including traceable approval processes. The result is fewer instances of factory rework and delays.

Boost Efficiency and Trim Costs with 
Part Management 

Parts management shouldn’t be a headwind to product growth that saps resources and efficiency. Properly executed, it maximizes part reuse and categorization, shedding inventory costs and streamlining your supply chain process.

 

Parts management with PLM classifies and tracks parts with detailed attributes so stakeholders can easily find and reuse existing parts, limiting the need for new components until they are genuinely needed.

 

PTC customers use Windchill PLM to optimize parts management. Discover how you can streamline operations, reduce costs, and accelerate time to market.
