“As Mevi, we want a process in which programming, simulation and work preparation are done in advance and only then sent into production.

1 Your challenge

4 The solution

Mapping your challenge

There are numerous challenges in the manufacturing industry. For example, products are more complicated and production is outsourced to other countries. This makes it more difficult to keep communicating about the details. Some organizations have a rich history of generation-old procedures that require innovation due to technical developments. In addition, customers are demanding increasingly faster delivery times and large orders do not always yield enough returns.

Every organization has its own reason for orienting towards PLM software or services. As a first step, we therefore go back to why a PLM-related solution ended up on the map. Which barriers can we remove in the process? And against what budget, what timing and other expectations?

Your challenge

Outlining our strategy

Now that the reason for innovation is clear, we delve deeper into the challenge and assemble a team of specialists. Even before we present a tailor-made demo, we are happy to give substance to our partnership by drawing up the optimal PLM strategy for your organization. Here we weigh up the pros and cons of different PLM software and services. The result of this step? The optimal tailor-made solution to streamline your processes.

Among other things, we map out the size of the total project. We zoom in on specific barriers and also look at the breadth of the issue. We also define which departments will be affected by the project and what the impact will be on the different employees of those divisions. Then we validate our findings: does our proposed route match your expectations?

Our strategy

From strategy to details

Even before we finally start working together, our pre-sales team will work out a plan for you. In this we weigh up how the PLM project fits within your organization. Which implementation best suits your processes? What are the investments? And what are the expected returns?

As partners, we coordinate the most suitable cooperation model. You may have already worked out the ideal product development processes or we may need to give you a helping hand. We challenge you on business issues and give direction to the various PLM solutions, but we will mainly propose good practices where appropriate. Transparency in the budget, investment and realization time are the basis of our cooperation.

The collaboration

Matching with the right solution

Now that we know exactly what you need and what the scope of the project is, we match it with the products on the market. Our product specialists then select the PLM software that best suits your issue and create a tailor-made demo.

Short iterations, a self-organizing team, flexibility as soon as you as a customer have different priorities. We are very well organized and work towards fast delivery of functional PLM building blocks. Early coordination with the business and presentation to your key-user team provide extra support. In addition to a good PLM solution, we also take care of the management of your PLM configuration.
