ENOVIA

ENOVIA Portfolio
ENOVIA Product Lifecycle Applications provide support for the product development process from initial concept to end of life.
These applications are built around recognised development best practices to promote concurrent engineering, multi-disciplinary design teams, change tracability knowledge capture, extended enterprise collaboration and the generalized use of digital data.
The solutions promote "right first time" design, improving quality and reducing development times. Managing and relating all product, process and resource (PPR) data, ENOVIA Product Lifecycle Applications encourage innovation and ensure collaboration between multiple engineering groups. Pervasive use of graphical PPR representations throughout the development process ensures that product development participation can extend beyond the engineering teams to sales, service, procurement and other enterprise functions.
