Infor PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) > Product Data Management (PDM)

Eliminate product data silos and speed product development.

You’re under pressure to quickly develop new products and meet stringent cost, compliance, and serviceability requirements. But if your product data exists in silos, you have to focus on gathering and validating data instead of developing your next new product.

Infor’s product data management (PDM) solution helps you speed product development by ensuring accurate product data and knowledge transfer—seamlessly captured and shared in a collaborative, distributed environment with version control and secure access through powerful search engines. You’re able to not only capture data but also context, status, relationships, and information. As a result, you’ll gain a single source of the truth about your product data, expedite approvals, and accelerate new product introductions.

Infor’s PDM capabilities help companies like yours:

Capture more knowledge
Reduce the time to knowledge from days or weeks to minutes
Eliminate redundant databases
Reduce the risk of knowledge flight
Ensure data consistency and accuracy
Improve quality and ensure compliance

Infor’s PDM solution for manufacturing and retail enterprises is tightly integrated with CAD/CAM, enterprise resource planning (ERP), supply chain management (SCM), and demand planning systems to help you improve quality, ensure compliance, reduce time to market, and improve productivity. It includes functionality that allows you to manage source data, version control, and status and turn data into knowledge that you can leverage seamlessly and securely across all aspects of your enterprise, supply chain, and partners to speed development of the right products.
