In regulated industries, engineering and quality teams must move fast enough to support innovation, but carefully enough to meet strict compliance requirements. This can be a difficult balancing act, and when critical product data lives in disconnected systems, that...
Modern product development depends on speed, traceability, and collaboration, yet many enterprises still operate with disconnected systems. This fragmentation makes it difficult to deliver high-quality, compliant products on time. A connected digital thread changes...
For companies in the highly regulated medical device industry, speed to market is directly tied to patient impact and competitive advantage. However, many MedTech organizations continue to struggle with long, unpredictable New Product Introduction (NPI) cycles. ...
Upgrading Solidworks PDM is a critical step in keeping your engineering environment secure and aligned with the latest features and performance improvements. However, without proper planning, a routine upgrade can lead to unexpected downtime, workflow disruptions,...
Medical device companies are facing unprecedented pressure. Regulatory expectations continue to rise, product and software complexity are accelerating, and embedded software is now central to nearly every device. At the same time, patients and providers demand faster...
Automotive product development is undergoing one of the most significant transformations in its history. Software-defined vehicles, advanced driver assistance systems, electrification, and increasing regulatory pressure are all factors that are stretching traditional...
In the tech space and beyond, modern buzz has all pointed to AI. While I love exploring new ideas, I am also quite a pragmatist. This past year, I’ve navigated through endless white papers, blogs, books, videos, social posts, and articles about AI. These detail how it...
