Overview: Real process improvement is difficult given the pace and complexity of both product development and strategic sourcing. Process integration and "perfect information" that only technology can provide is required. That is why Product Lifecycle Sourcing (PLS) integrates strategic sourcing and product lifecycle management, enabling common processes and information for engineering, procurement, and suppliers. A key component is a collaborative environment that enables global product teams, suppliers and allied partners to quickly join together and interactively capture, share, exchange, and organize innovative ideas as well as structured documents and information.
