QKS also highlights that ServiceMax’s role in the PTC digital thread and integration within the portfolio is a major advantage for organizations looking to strengthen their service and aftermarket operations. These technology integrations enabled across the PTC portfolio ensure end users can leverage product data across the enterprise – allowing various personas, business domains, and leaders to access, interact with, and leverage that data for service-oriented use cases. According to QKS Group, “ServiceMax integrates tightly with PTC’s broader portfolio, including Windchill and ThingWorx, which extend its digital thread capabilities. This integration bridges service operations with product lifecycle management, enabling users to gain real-time access to product content, enhanced change management, and IoT-driven predictive maintenance. As a result, organizations benefit from a unified service lifecycle management experience that boosts overall asset performance and customer satisfaction.”
