Core to a company’s success is the ability to continuously improve the management of their planning, design, development, manufacturing and support of their product offerings. Companies that adopt a Bill of Information (BOI) approach with their Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) implementations will achieve the biggest gains. The BOI is a comprehensive data model that enables the real-time management and reporting from the entire collection of information at any point along a product’s lifecycle – from concept through retirement.

During this presentation, Essig PLM will highlight how companies are able to easily create and manage the Bill of Information with ProductCenter Nexa PLM. Among the many benefits of a BOI strategy would be:

• Drastically reduced search times for item re-use or reference
• Efficient and accurate audits (ISO, FDA, ITAR, etc.)
• 24 X 7 accurate and timely data access (for global requirements)
• Proof of compliance
• Intellectual property (IP) accountability and traceability
