Solair - new proposition for PLM

CASALECCHIO di RENO, ITALY: Italian based Solair Srl is taking a refreshing look at why it is important for all manufacturing suppliers and demonstrating new approaches to unleash its potential.

What's all the fuss about?

Considering its proven benefits, PLM's full potential remains largely untapped by a surprising number of small and medium-sized businesses. Many of these businesses are involved in the supply chains of multi-billion dollar industries.

In machinery, high-tech, aerospace and automotive industries the PLM technology stack has become the fulcrum of the product development process. Organisations are using it to enhance processes across the entire sphere of product development activities, boosting innovation, speeding time to market and improving collaboration with both suppliers and customers.

Where are my benefits?

Companies have often been deterred from PLM by the effort required to configure and customize solutions to adapt to them to their own unique business needs and existing IT infrastructure. In some cases, the complexity of new user interfaces often requires a steep learning curve and can actually hinder employee productivity in the short-medium term.

"The PLM market is witnessing a sea change in the way it can be delivered and operated. The new breed of SaaS and cloud based PLM solutions, such as Solair PLM, is likely to enable smaller companies to better manage their PLM priorities and focus on incremental benefits as part of an overall business transformation," observes Simon Hailstone of UK industry analysts Cambashi.

How is this different?

Solair's cloud-based PLM solution offers a simple, flexible and collaborative working environment. Its scalability and pay-per-use model allow companies to begin using it gradually, without compromising the existing infrastructure and without burdening IT budgets. The simplified user experience minimizes learning time and makes it possible to achieve a high level of user adoption.

All of this is available under a comprehensive PLM framework. Whether you need to improve part reuse through flexible searches, reduce development time through process improvement, increase productivity with flexible CAD management or enhance customer satisfaction with open collaboration, Solair PLM gets you there quicker with lower risk.
