Collaborative product commerce-a class of software and services that uses Internet technologies to permit individuals to collaboratively develop, build, and manage products throughout their life cycles. CPC can, for example, collapse the time it takes to turn intellectual property into deliverable products by giving senior executives the tools they need to be involved in product development and lifecycle management. The same tools allow manufacturers to work more closely with suppliers and others. Of course, in-house design for manufacturability, as well as field service issues, may also be addressed.
