Speed EV Product Development with Arena PLM

The green revolution is here and is helping to create environmentally friendly products that are improving how we live, work, and play. For electric transportation companies, this means meeting increased consumer demand and net-zero targets for carbon-neutral transportation if they want to win the race.

Arena PLM helps you deliver innovative solutions fast while meeting environmental regulations.

ACCELERATE GLOBAL COLLABORATION

Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers and their supply chain partners are more dispersed than ever before. Everyone involved in new product development and introduction needs easy access to the latest product and quality information to ensure products can be brought to market ahead of the competition.

Whether you have a few partners, or hundreds, you need a platform designed for secure, rapid collaboration and traceability from early design through volume production.

Read our brief to learn how collaborative supply chains are driving in a new era of innovation.

MANAGE INCREASING PRODUCT COMPLEXITY

Whether it be an extended driving range, a reduced charging time, or a new driver assist capability—electric transportation manufacturers must address the ever-increasing demands of today’s consumer.

To create a more connected customer experience and stand out from the competition, manufacturers are leveraging complex technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), and augmented reality (AR) for the development of smarter, more sophisticated products.

By combining mechanical, electrical, software, and firmware designs into a single, unified system, Arena ensures their interoperability and enables manufacturers to manage increasing product complexity, while driving continuous innovation.

OVERCOME EV SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS

Supply chain disruptions can prevent manufacturers from sourcing critical parts and materials from across the globe, resulting in product delays and decreased revenue. 

To cross the finish line first, global manufacturers need to continually prepare for supply chain disruptions. This process is now largely driven by digital transformation technologies which provide companies with new powerful solutions for enabling deep collaborative relationships between internal teams and supply chain partners.

IDENTIFYING THE VALUE OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

To overcome complex manufacturing, compliance and collaboration challenges, it’s crucial to align digital transformation efforts with business value.

Identifying the most pressing problems impacting financial and operational goals – and measuring the value attainable from resolving them – provides a solid foundation for digital transformation.

Read this report to understand how global manufacturers are progressing with digital transformation (DX) and how these digital projects are transforming physical processes across the value chain for significant financial gains.

IT’S EASY TO MIGRATE TO THE CLOUD

Many EV manufacturers are adopting cloud-based product lifecycle management (PLM) software solutions to gain a single source of product truth, speed global collaboration between internal teams and external partners, and meet environmental compliance regulations. 

Don’t put the brakes on implementing a Cloud PLM solution. Check out this blog post to see how easy it is to migrate to the Cloud.

OVERCOMING PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES IN EV MANUFACTURING

The increasing demand for alternative and more sustainable transportation modes are sparking new innovations in the electric mobility (e-mobility) industry. As new players look to compete and acquire market share, established original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are racing to launch new products and gain first-mover advantage.

Although tremendous growth opportunity lies ahead for EV manufacturers, it doesn’t come without challenges. In this post, we review some of the hurdles that electric transportation companies encounter as they strive to innovate in a fiercely competitive and volatile market. We also reveal how a cloud-based product lifecycle management (PLM) solution can help them overcome these challenges and achieve new product development and introduction (NPDI) success.

FREEWIRE TECHNOLOGIES IS WINNING THE NPI AND COMPLIANCE RACE WITH ARENA

“When it comes to PLM solutions, Arena is better than any system I have used in the past. The value Arena provides compared to other commercial systems is remarkable. And because it is cloud-based, we have a system that can scale as our needs change and our business grows. We know that Arena PLM can take us through the next two generations of our evolution.”
