Siemens Introduces 'Industry Catalyst Series' for PLM

Siemens introduced a new series of industry-specific offerings. The Industry Catalyst Series offerings consist of a pre-packaged combination of industry best practice guides, templates and software aimed at accelerating PLM deployment and tailoring the system to the needs of specific industries. The series is designed to increase a company’s overall return on its PLM investment, as well as the speed at which ROI is realized. The new offerings will also make it faster and easier to adopt, and gain value from, the latest PLM technology. The Industry Catalyst Series will work with one or more Siemens PLM Software offerings and – in accordance with the company’s open business model – in combination with third party PLM solutions. Individual Industry Catalyst Series offerings will be announced over the next several months.

Siemens PLM Software's 'Industry Catalyst Series' accelerates the time and value of each industry implementation while providing an environment for swift adoption of new technology. Each catalyst delivers:

• Industry Best Practices – a set of digital guides and templates which function as a reference for the best processes and practices across the product life cycle in a particular industry 
• Deployment Accelerators – a set of industry-specific recommendations for product selections, systems design decisions, configuration procedures and best practices for deployment 
• Open and Configurable Industry Solution Components – software components that enable the implementation team to easily control the appearance and behavior of a Siemens PLM implementation, without the need for custom programming The Industry Catalyst Series is designed to minimize disruption by delivering industry-tailored, rapid deployments that enable companies to experience the full value of PLM more quickly.
