If you want your company to be a market leader, you need to innovate relentlessly. Today's most forward-thinking companies are building Global Innovation Networks that let them continuously improve their products and processes, and organize their value chain so that innovation can flourish.

Global Innovation Networks unite global partners, suppliers and customers through a shared base of product/process knowledge. By allowing distributed value chains to innovate as a single enterprise, these networks drive today's business imperatives:

  • Increasing the yield of innovation By enabling your value chain to view new product ideas and validate them against customer, engineering, and manufacturability requirements, Global Innovation Networks accelerate the entire process of innovation and expand your innovation capacity.
  • Compressing time to market Global Innovation Networks provide project and portfolio management tools you can use to manage program performance against measurable goals and determine whether your processes, designs and/or suppliers are working effectively.
  • Optimizing resources By maximizing your ability to re-use the ideas, processes, resources, skills, designs, parts, documents and sourcing relationships that differentiate your company, Global Innovation Networks enable you to respond cost-effectively to rising customer demands.
  • Meeting business and regulatory requirements By incorporating compliance as an integral process in your product lifecycle, Global Innovation Networks provide a cost-effective solution you can use to mitigate the risk associated with non-compliant products.
  • Maximizing globalization advantages By uniting the participants in your distributed value chain at every level, Global Innovation Networks allow you to "design anywhere, build anywhere, and support anywhere."

We have identified eight PLM business initiatives that represent some of the best paths to quickly and efficiently accelerate business growth and evolve your innovation abilities.

Global Innovation Networks are all about shared knowledge, so no one is left out of the innovation process. In order to compete in an outsourced world, no company can afford to take the chance that the best idea isn't heard and shared. Ensuring this level of collaboration is at the core of a true Global Innovation Network. Enabling them is the core of the Siemens PLM Software vision, and no one can do it better than we can.
