Sierra Wireless

Sierra Wireless had a product data management dilemma: the company had acquired another company 1300 miles away that used different processes and systems to manage product development, part numbering and engineering changes. In the wireless market, Sierra Wireless is faced with pressure from customers and competitors to reduce product development cycle time and time to market.

The company needed a solution that would reconcile the two systems, managing product data and changes while speeding up change processes to enhance efficiency. The solution had to produce seamless collaboration between the two sites. Additionally, Sierra Wireless needed to integrate PLM data with their JD Edwards system.
