SPARK Matrix™: Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Q3, 2023

The Quadrant Knowledge Solutions SPARK Matrix™ provides competitive analysis & ranking of the leading Product Lifecycle Management Vendors.

24 August 2023: Quadrant Knowledge Solutions announced today that it has published a SPARK Matrix^TM analysis of the global Product Lifecycle Management Market.

The Quadrant Knowledge Solutions SPARK Matrix™: Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) includes a detailed analysis of global market dynamics, major trends, vendor landscape, and competitive positioning. The study provides competitive analysis and ranking of the leading product lifecycle management in the form of its SPARK MatrixTM. The study provides strategic information for users to evaluate different vendor capabilities, competitive differentiators, and market positions.

According to Narayan Gokhale, the Associate Director of Research, at Quadrant Knowledge Solutions, “For discrete manufacturers, the digital thread starts in the engineering department. This is where data about mechanical/electronic components, software, and other valuable information is connected to requirements and plans. This data needs to be easily accessible and shared between different teams, such as service, manufacturing, IT, and quality. By implementing a PLM system with capabilities such as change management, requirements management, configuration management, multi-CAD solutions, product data management, and BOM tools, everyone in the organization will have access to this real-time data whenever needed. It will help the organization to make better decisions and work more efficiently.”

Sriraj Amrithraj, Analyst at Quadrant Knowledge Solutions, also adds. “As technology advances, companies that provide product lifecycle management (PLM) software include new features to keep up with the changes. Some of these features include sustainable product development, advanced reporting & analytics, Software as a Service (SaaS) capability, and closed-loop integration with enterprise systems. Furthermore, PLM vendors are focusing on making their software better by using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies. This means that the software can learn and improve on its own over time, making it even more effective and efficient at managing products.”

The research includes detailed competition analysis and vendor evaluation with the proprietary SPARK MatrixTM analysis. The Product Lifecycle Management SPARK MatrixTM includes an analysis of vendors, including Aras, Autodesk, Dassault Systemés, Duro, Oracle, PTC, Propel, SAP, and Siemens.
