AUTOMOBILE / TRANSPORTATION
The automotive industry is continuing to change and must face many challenges that greatly impact its product information system.
The high cost of product development and market globalization are inducing most industries in the sector to look for strong partnerships, alliances or mergers/acquisitions that impose significant sharing, exchanging and mutualization of their product information. Exchanges no longer occur simply at the item level, but also at the digital mock-up, data validation and complete system functional specification levels. This move from a parts supplier relationship to a complete system partnership relationship is causing companies in the sector to significantly upgrade their information systems (marketplace, product structure import/export, systems interfacing, …)
Likewise, the generalization of multimodel platform development has led to reorganizing project teams on virtual multisite and multitrade platforms (Marketing/Study/Production/Purchasing,…) with the goal always being to reduce design cycles and costs. Those goals cannot be achieved without an effective product information system that covers all design and modification processes from requirements management to product/process validation.
Moreover, legislative changes in the area of ecology (antipollution standards, traceability of hazardous materials, product recyclability) is leading companies to manage new kinds of product data.
