Ingersoll Rand drives continuous innovation for global markets
Learn how Ingersoll Rand orchestrated a network of more than 3,000 suppliers by using Windchill for project and design collaboration.
Watch the VideosGlobalization, outsourcing, and remote work has significantly increased the complexity of project and design collaboration. Internal teams—management, engineering, manufacturing, sales, marketing, purchasing, and customer service—can be widely distributed across different offices and time zones. Suppliers and customers are even further removed. PLM project management tools enable project and design collaboration for extended product teams regardless of location.
The highly interactive nature of cross-functional, geographically-distributed project teams often causes breakdowns when it comes to sharing data and project plans outside the firewall. PTC’s project management software keeps globally-dispersed teams working 24x7 as if they were physically present in the same room. With a focus on design and manufacturing outsourcing, change and configuration management, and project management, it’s never been easier to engage the whole value chain for faster, smarter product development.
Instead of working in a silo of engineering, start collaborating in a way that secures data and provides a single source of truth. Track all your deliverables throughout the project lifecycle with detailed status and change management for shared objects such as CAD designs and documents. Project teams can even submit a problem report or variance at the project level, speeding up the initiation process, all while using the preferred workflow and business processes defined by the company. Specific capabilities for project managers include visual timelines and Gantt charts for the project plan and a tight integration with Microsoft Project.
