PLM Global Consulting Inc



We are a service provider specialized in PLMCAD consulting  Data Cleaning for companies that want to get their inventory under control.  This is done with a complete view of the company data and processes, and with the scope of eliminating duplicates and establishing processes to prevent future occurences.  Usually, the outcome is a duplicate elimination from all systems and Library implementation in the PLM and CAD systems.

Engineering:                                                  Purchasing:                                                                Warehousing (Shop floor, Spare Parts):

This pertains items that have movement (purchases), but even dormant items can become active, if they are permitted for use.  That is why a complete cleanup is essential and unnecessary items are deactivated from all systems, so their usage is prohibited.
Of course, the whole process has lots of challenges:
