The Importance of Preconfigured PDM

Start quickly and achieve benefits rapidly

“Implementing [PDM] software

without significant modifications

helps companies achieve

benefits more rapidly … get up

to speed quickly and then grow

from there to gain further

benefits.” Tech-Clarity Insight: The Business Value of Product Data Management,

Achieving Rapid and Extendable Benefits

Preconfigured PDM Delivers Rapid Results

Weir Valves & Controls

“We keep our PDM as ‘vanilla’ as

possible to keep it simple, very

little has been changed from the

standard … [realising] reduction

in engineering errors, efficiency,

[and] time savings through not

having to search for data.” Jonathan Mills, Engineering Manager

Weir Valves & Controls
