Managing product changes within a centralized cloud system accelerates product design improvements and speeds reviews by your internal teams and supply chain partners. Streamlined engineering change reviews result in faster approval cycles and NPD efficiencies.
“Vizimax reduced NPI cycle time by 80% with Arena PLM.”
– Jean Villers, VP of Manufacturing
✓ Reduced engineering change
approval cycle time by up to 90%
✓ Reduced NPD cycle time by 45%
✓ Reduced NPI cycle time by up to 60%
✓ Accelerated time to market by 30%
Cloud PLM and QMS solutions help optimize the way you document product records (e.g., items, BOMs, documents), review manufacturing processes, and communicate engineering changes to your supply chain.
Productivity gains as a result of improved processes can be realized with better resource allocation, reductions in errors that cause scrap and rework, and time savings associated with central access to information.
✓ Increased part reuse across products by 59%
✓ Reduced time spent searching for information by 65% (real–time access by internal and external teams)
✓ Eliminated data entry errors with revision–controlled changes by average of 20%
✓ Cut design review cycle time by over 50%
✓ Increased quality process efficiency by 40%
✓ Accelerated FDA document approval cycles by 90%
✓ Responded to audits 50% faster
✓ Reduced return merchandise authorizations (RMA) by 50%
Quality issues can arise throughout the product lifecycle. Accelerating product development, quality, and CAPA processes, and the resolution of quality or design issues with product-centric cloud QMS, ensures fast delivery of safe and compliant products.
For medical device companies, FDA or quality system noncompliance issues can determine the success or failure of a product launch and, sometimes, the company itself. Centralizing the creation, review, and approval of product and quality information reduces audit risks, ensures regulatory compliance, and drives continuous improvement.

Cloud PLM and QMS solutions do more than enable internal teams to work more efficiently. They significantly accelerate change, NPD, and NPI cycles. Connecting internal teams and external partners in a single system of truth eliminates silos and confusion around the latest information. Many companies today rely on multitiered supply chains across dispersed geographic areas.
A cloud PLM solution removes barriers to entry and usability for supply chain partners because it’s easy and secure to access via a web browser—anytime and anywhere around the world.
✓ Reduced shipping delays by 50%
✓ Cut manufacturing errors by 75%
✓ Increased product release process efficiency by 30%
✓ Increased global manufacturing capacity by 200%
