Product lifecycle management

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) can be associated with documents, drawings, or changes in workflow steps to ensure appropriate actions are identified and approved during the lifetime of an object.  Documents and drawings associated with products and processes can be managed throughout their lifecycle based on their state, from original design, to revision, QA, release, obsolescence, and archival or deletion.

What is product lifecycle management software?

Product Lifecycle Management software enables organizations to manage multidisciplinary teams and collaborate with third parties, by providing a single source of truth for your product data and company documents.  A PLM solution provides product lifecycle continuity and lets your organizations store contextualized product data that is accessible to permissioned users.

Product Lifecycle Management systems have been developed to enable entire organizations to gather product data and production support requirements in a central place, while providing the byproduct of easier and faster collaboration. The size of many enterprise PLM systems, however, may not be appropriate for small and medium-size businesses using PLM software for the first time.

  • CAD Drawing Management
  • Image Visualization

The eQuorum Customer Promise

 

In 2005, eQuorum developed the first all browser-based EDMS. The system, although for on-premise use, was still created to remove client software and JAVA from user computers and allow users to have a single viewer based on the simple navigation functionality of browsers. Today, eQuorum provides that same application in a private Cloud or a SaaS Cloud option.  We can do this because we are, and have always been, browser-based, understanding the enhanced speed, security, and usability of this technology.

With the abundance of document management systems on the market today, there’s no doubt that choosing the right Cloud document management software can be a difficult decision. eQuorum is here to provide a comprehensive, powerful, and most importantly – affordable Cloud document management solution. We believe in providing real value to our customers by eliminating unnecessary costs, providing industry-leading functionality, and equipping your team with the right tools using cutting edge technology to bring your products to market faster.
