PLM in Aerospace

I will like to tell you by giving example of How IBM is helping Aerospace :-

The product lifecycle management solution allows aerospace and defense organizations to share and control data during product planning, design, production and maintenance cycles. Using industry-established best practices, our solution can help you market better products and manage them from conception to end-of-life. An on demand approach to PLM solutions and infrastructure through PLM Managed Services can help reduce the costs and risks associated with new aerospace and defense projects

PLM for aerospace and defense from IBM can help you because: We can provide you with an end-to-end product lifecycle management solution. Our experience is built upon 20,000 successful product lifecycle management implementations.

The strategic relationship of IBM and key IBM Business Partners, like Dassault Systemes, provides the industry-leading engineering software and know-how required for effective lifecycle management.
Our proven solutions are used by leading aerospace companies, including:
 
Airbus
Boeing
Lockheed Martin
Northrop Grumman
Raytheon Aircraft Company
United Technologies Corp

A flying success 
Advance Configuration Management System, a project to develop the Eurofighter, is one successful implementation of the product lifecycle management solution from IBM. Participating companies are able to use best practices to collaboratively overcome the shortcomings of current working methods and existing systems.

A generic e-business process model was defined and a proof of-concept system, based on ENOVIAvpm from IBM and Dassault Systemes, was used. Design and development engineering teams are able to manage customer requirements—gather, document, analyze, verify and update requirement information at every phase of the project. When completed, aircraft manufacturers will be able to assemble different versions of the combat aircraft, based on the unique specifications of their national air force.
