The Enterprise Product Record

Companies have deployed enterprise “systems of record” to manage select operations across their business:

• Customer relationship management ( CRM ) systems manage the customer record
• Enterprise resource planning ( ERP ) systems manage the financial record
• Supply chain management ( SCM ) systems manage the supplier record
• Human capital management ( HCM ) systems manage the employee record.
  

Unlike other enterprise assets — customers, suppliers, employees and equipment — a company’s products define its competitive advantage. Agile PLM manages the enterprise product record, the single system of record for product information required to maximize profitability throughout the lifecycle.

Containing the rich information that uniquely defines all aspects of a product at each stage in its lifecycle, the product record includes all of the information required by the extended enterprise to conceptualize, design, source, build, sell, service and dispose of products.

Through a broad suite of best practice, business-ready solutions, Agile PLM provides secure, timely, visibility and control of product information for PLM processes and for stakeholders. Agile helps companies accelerate revenue, drive innovation, reduce costs, improve quality, and ensure regulatory compliance throughout the product lifecycle.
