Product Lifecycle Management: Driving the Next Generation of Lean Thinking | Book Series

Overview:

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is the newest wave in productivity. This revolutionary approach is an outcome of lean thinking; however, PLM eliminates waste and efficiency across all aspects of a products life–from design to deployment–not just in its manufacture. By using people, product information, processes, and technology to reduce wasted time, energy, and material across an organisation and into the supply chain, PLM drives the next generation of lean thinking. Now PLM pioneer Michael Grieves offers everyone from Six Sigma and lean practitioners to supply chain managers, product developers, and consultants a proven framework for adopting this information-driven approach. Product Lifecycle Management shows you how to greatly enhance your firms productivity by integrating the efforts of your entire organisation. Most companies are seeing the returns of their efforts in lean methods diminishing, as the most fruitful applications have already been addressed.
