ERP White Papers and Demos

When it comes to software implementations, organizations of all sizes share common goals: rapid deployment and a fast return on investment. However, small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) in manufacturing face unique business requirements that might not be met by large vendors who typically serve the Fortune 1000 community.

While ERP does a fine job of tracking manufacturing, distribution and accounting processes, traditional ERP systems do not encompass interactions with outside parties such as customers, suppliers and business partners.

More and more manufacturers are implementing lean principles to minimize waste and increase efficiency, stripping out processes that do not create customer value. However, it’s becoming clear that the shop floor is not the only part of the operation responsible for extended lead times.

The manufacturing industry is undergoing one if its most significant transformations in decades. The years of industrialized nations gaining significant economic advantages from shifting production to low cost, developing nations are coming to an end. Today’s economic landscape and rising wages in formerly low-cost countries make offshoring less attractive.

The purpose of this document is to explain the security measures implemented in PLM 360 and provide answers to common security questions.

Autodesk PLM 360 provides a powerful, affordable, easy-to-implement PLM solution that is available anytime, anywhere, through virtually any web-enabled device.

This paper will explore the benefits of cloud computing and explain how they are achieved in order to develop meaningful criteria to evaluate cloud PLM offerings.
