Product Lifecycle Management Consulting
One of the success factors of a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) initiative is how well it has been planned. Infosys' consulting team helps you develop a robust PLM vision, strategy and long-term roadmap.
We help analyze your current business scenario, competitive positioning and future needs to develop the PLM roadmap. As the PLM initiative covers all aspects of business - from research and development, manufacturing, planning and marketing to finance - it becomes imperative to develop a vision and roadmap, which corresponds with the product information needs of these entities. Our comprehensive approach encompasses your current operational realities and emerging business needs. Infosys' offerings include:
- IT Architecture
Proper modeling of business processes helps in translating them to technical services in a structured fashion, which in turn helps enterprises to respond faster to dynamic market requirements.
- Developing a Program Governance Model
Infosys believes that a good governance model creates a better partnership. We select appropriate metrics and continually measure and monitor them to ensure that the PLM program progresses according to plan and delivers the desired benefits. Our approach covers planning, delivery and support phases for PLM deployment:
- Planning: Upfront goal setting and defining objectives for partnership
- Delivery: Delivery of targeted goals within the agreed timeline
- Support: Sustain and enhance the value of implementation
- Developing a PLM 'Internal Marketing' Strategy and Communication Plan
Infosys' consultancy strategy encompasses internal communication. We support management to get a buy-in among users for PLM. In addition, we recommend to management what needs to be communicated at different stages of project implementation so that users are in sync with organizational strategic initiatives. Communication strategy guides customers how to handle issues related to cultural and organizational change.
