Who Can Benefit

In your product development work, do these challenges keep recurring?

If any sound familiar, assess your workflows and data structure before choosing a system.

ISSUE 01

Disconnected Development Data

CAD, BOMs, documents, and quality information are scattered across systems and personal files.

ISSUE 02

Spreadsheet-Based Project Management

Schedules, progress, deliverables, and issues depend on spreadsheets and meetings, making current information hard to share.

ISSUE 03

Hard-to-Trace Changes and Quality Issues

Separate change and quality records make it difficult to identify impacts and root causes.

ISSUE 04

Repetitive Search and Reporting

Finding, comparing, organizing, and reporting information repeatedly consumes time and effort.

ISSUE 05

An Unclear Starting Point for AI

You want to adopt AI but need to know where to start and what to prepare.

ISSUE 06

Assessment Before PLM or PMS

Identify operational and data issues and agree on priorities before investing in a system.

Assessment Scope

Your entire development lifecycle,viewed as one
connected operation.

We look beyond feature lists to analyze real workflows, data connections,
system adoption, and opportunities for AI.

01 / PROCESS

Processes

  • Workflows from product planning through production handover
  • Cross-functional collaboration, approvals, and decisions
  • Repetitive tasks and manual work
  • Project delays and operational bottlenecks
02 / DATA

Data

  • CAD & Drawing Management
  • BOM structure and accuracy
  • Documents, deliverables, and revision history
  • Connections between project and quality data
03 / SYSTEM

Systems

  • Current PLM, PMS, ERP, MES, and QMS use
  • Duplicate entry across systems
  • Interfaces and disconnected data
  • Reliance on spreadsheets and personal files
04 / AI OPPORTUNITY

Identifying AI Use Cases

  • AI search and Q&A using development documents and data
  • Summarization and comparison of documents, drawings, and changes
  • Support for change impact and quality issue analysis
  • Automatic aggregation of schedules and issues and report generation
