The new turnkey program, called the Always-On Enterprise Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platform, is expected to reduce the cost and time for bringing new products to market by enabling manufacturing companies to manage and collaborate on complex products across internal and external organizations.

Additionally, NEC Solutions America will provide customer service and support for deployments in the hope of enabling single-vendor simplicity for customers.

The new technology is designed for the needs of mid- to Fortune 500-sized discrete and process manufacturers, including medical device manufacturers, high tech companies, and automotive OEM and parts suppliers.
