What is the Affordable PLM Act?
You’ve all heard of the Affordable Care Act – at least those of you following modern politics in the USA. With our newly elected president there’s a lot of hoopin’ and hollerin’ going on about this legislation across the country. Perhaps it will be repealed, and/or replaced, but it will take a real act of congress to move on this initiative.
Strange how this closely aligns with starting a new company-wide initiative for PLM (Product Lifecycle Management). To get a new system into the company, or to ‘repeal’ the current system, you’ll need to move a mountain of politics and get all parties to ‘buy in’ to the change. Do not despair – there is now HOPE with 4G:PLM! The three keys to making this work:
- Education – get everyone trained on what’s really going on today, how it can be better and how you can eventually get 100% coverage on your systems and processes.
