Comments on: PLM and Collaboration Platforms: Partnership or Buzzworks? http://plmtwine.com/2009/11/03/plm-and-collaboration-platforms-partnership-or-buzzworks/ Product Lifecycle Management by Oleg Shilovitsky Wed, 30 May 2012 21:05:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: olegshilovitsky http://plmtwine.com/2009/11/03/plm-and-collaboration-platforms-partnership-or-buzzworks/#comment-2856 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:12:57 +0000 http://plmtwine.com/?p=3527#comment-2856 Christophe, Thanks for comments! and you are very welcome to stimulate brain :) … I’m loving doing the same btw. In my view growing overlap (and you emphasized it by saying- all these functions already exists in PLM systems) is not what PLM systems need. If you remember, 10-15 years ago, we have been focused on how to create “tree-like UI”, since OS was not able to support it out of the box. Not it does. But replicate it to the next capabilities developed by general purpose collaborative platforms, please. I hope, you will see a need to move forward and not replicate what infrastructure is doing. Just my thoughts… Oleg

Personaly I wonder how
to sell simple and affordable plm solution to smb market knowing that it’s possible to start by using informal collaboration around documents and then to grow with formal collaboration around product dev ?
For sure migration tolls would be needed !
Best Regards and thank for stimulating our brains

I think, you pointed it very well- most of PLM tools are running independently from collaborative platform and frameworks. This is creates disconnect in collaboration between PLM tools and rest of the world, in my view. Best, Oleg

Without any standard, we will see new business giving way to new PLM tools, all one better than the other, thus making customers confuse on which way they need to go. without these common framework, any other newcomer will be an another tool.

Advantages of a common framework will put future PLM tools to have small business create collaboration tools that work with any PLM tool, thus extending the capabilities beyond just design/engineering/PDM.
