Join us for a series of webinars on how to securely share product information across your extended value chain using Teamcenter’s community collaboration solution

Bringing a new product to market—from concept to launch— and keeping an existing product on time and on budget requires a coordinated effort among numerous company departments, from design to manufacturing to distribution. This effort can be especially daunting when various departments are geographically dispersed, as is often the case in today’s global economy. Short timelines, complex products, and intense competition can make product lifecycle management (PLM) challenging.

And yet innovation (of products and processes) is what sets companies apart, especially in challenging market and economic conditions. To be effective in today’s marketplace, companies need to facilitate collaboration among stakeholders worldwide, foster the exchange of ideas, and encourage the reuse of proven parts, equipment, and processes for cost-efficiency. Capturing knowledge and expertise for continuous improvement helps innovators succeed, along with a foundation for tracking regulatory compliance and a conduit for integrating design information with manufacturing best practices.

Teamcenter’s community collaboration solution is built on Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) and provides a unique and highly productive collaborative environment that supports company specific business processes such as Supplier Integration, New Product Development & Introduction, Global Product Development and other business initiatives.

And the effects can be immeasurable if the defect enters the marketplace. This 1st webinar in the series highlights some of the issues facing manufacturers and presents solutions that can be employed to proactively tackle them using visual collaboration for Issues Management.
