Kalypso Debuts Product Lifecycle Intelligence App

In the US, global consulting firm Kalypso has rolled out an app called Product Lifecyle Intelligence (PLI), offering clients help in improving product development through data-driven insights.

PLI mines operational insights from data accumulated within product lifecycle and product data management environments (PLM and PDM respectively), as well as in business systems. The resulting performance metrics cover areas such as demand, cycle time, cost, quality, regulatory compliance, manufacturability and supply chain efficiency, and allow users to explain performance trends, diagnose root causes and predict and improve future performance.

Senior Manager Jordan Reynolds (pictured) explains: 'Companies today are swimming in data. PLI provides a structured approach to extracting insights from PLM and other datasets to make better product development decisions. While PLI allows leaders to describe and diagnose a problem, the real power and benefit lies in the ability to predict the impact of product development decisions on key business performance metrics, then prescribe solutions.'
