Transforming manufacturing processes through dynamic documentsReduce cost, risk and time by bringing critical documents to life
This webcast is available on demand. Register today and watch at your convenience through March 4, 2009.
Documents are a key part of manufacturing processes, from requirements and specifications, to bills, parts lists, marketing materials and technical maintenance manuals. Documents are portable, persistent and provide the context that people need to understand information. But documents are typically a snapshot in time, providing a static view of a dynamic business. This static nature can result in design, development and maintenance delays, mistakes, rework costs and compliance issues that can rapidly erode profit margins, customer loyalty and time-to-market advantages.
Register for this timely and important broadcast to learn how dynamic documents can dramatically improve information transfer and collaboration in product lifecycle management (PLM) and maintenance repair and operations (MRO).
Specifically, you’ll learn:
- How to transform documents from static artifacts to dynamic applications
- How to ensure accurate, real-time information transfer in collaborative and concurrent design and development processes—internally and externally
- How to reduce the publishing costs and improve the accuracy and relevance of field maintenance manuals, policies, procedures and marketing materials
- How XML is evolving in its role as the foundation for information management in manufacturing today
- How dynamic documents can help you meet product launch schedules
- How to target documentation to product variance and markets
Using a series of real-world case study examples, Kevin Parker, editor in chief of Manufacturing Business Technology, will lead a discussion that will shed light on the actions you can take to optimize your documentation processes for faster, lower cost and lower risk product design, development and maintenance.
Kevin will be joined by Tom Maurer, senior director of high tech industry marketing for Siemens PLM Software, and Jeff Deskins, principal consultant for JustSystems. Together, they will provide a context for understanding the role of documents in your manufacturing practices and a framework for taking action to improve your document-based processes today.
Tune in to learn more.
