HOW CLOUD TECHNOLOGIES HELP MANUFACTURERS DRIVE SUSTAINABLE PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

GREEN TECH INNOVATION

The green or clean technology movement is driving the development of green products to reduce the negative impact of human activity on the environment. Green tech companies that are developing complex products comprised of electrical, mechanical, software, and IoT (Internet of Things) components also need to meet environmental regulations. Taking a smarter approach to product development ensures efficiencies in designing and developing high-quality products. PLM helps clean tech and alternative energy companies manage complex product development processes stemming from emerging technologies.

PLM helps clean tech companies address key challenges such as:

• Accessing siloed mechanical, electrical, and software design records
• Collaborating with distributed teams and supply chains
• Enforcing efficient and controlled product realization processes
• Managing information to meet evolving global industry and compliance regulations

Key challenges Arena addresses for green tech companies:

• Eliminating silos and confusion around the latest design revision
• Establishing cross-functional design collaboration during new product development
• Designing and testing complex embedded electronics with a high rate of change
