The Global Leader in Product Development Technology

Manufacturing companies today face ever-growing challenges in bringing products to market. Technology, outsourcing, globalization, and consolidation have converged to create new opportunities and new complexities in the process of designing and developing products. As more and more people become involved in product development, the need for practical solutions to create innovative designs, share information, and manage change intensies. This is the essence of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). PTC has worked at the forefront of product development technologies for over 20 years. Today, with more than 50,000 customers using our product development, content management and dynamic publishing solutions, PTC is recognized as the global leader in helping discrete manufacturers optimize product development performance.
Here are just a few reasons why the worlds most innovative companies rely on PTC solutions:

PTC innovation leads the way in product development technology Our integral Product Development System helps manufacturers identify and realize more value PTC has a proven record of performance for real companies in the real world

PTC A History of Innovation in Product Development

PTC is, in some ways, the dening vendor in the PLM market. It is fair to say that PTC had the earliest and most compelling vision for PLM.
Kevin OMarah, AMR Research

As a world-leading provider of integral product development, content management and dynamic publishing solutions for discrete manufacturers, PTC has led nearly every major breakthrough in the industry. PTCs rst MCAD product Pro/ENGINEER was a revolutionary success that brought parametric, feature-based, fully associative solid modeling to the manufacturing industry. What began as hardware independence for Pro/ENGINEER led to an ongoing commitment to interoperability and open standards for all PTC products. Then, with the introduction of Windchill , PTC became the rst to release a pure Internet architecture solution for product data management and collaboration. Today, PTCs Product Development System combines the core of Pro/ENGINEER and Windchill with the dynamic publishing capabilities of Arbortext and engineering calculation management features of Mathcad into the only integral product development solution available in the world. In the future, PTC will continue to aggressively expand the Product Development System footprint while staying true to the founding, integral vision.

An Integral Product Development System

PTC has tightly integrated our core products into a flexible, integral system that discrete manufacturers need. With a new, aggressive testing standard, PTC is ensuring that these products work in a seamless fashion across standard business processes. PTCs Product Development System is designed to automate product development business processes while managing interdependencies across different forms of product information, so that all players in the Digital Product Value Chain understand how their inputs affect an overall product. This system is a conguration of specic PTC technologies designed and tested together that deliver complete system support for a wide range of product development processes. The result is a highly differentiated solution with a broad capability footprint and a clean, integral architecture. This pre-integrated solution can be more easily implemented than competitive offerings, thereby lowering risk and total cost of ownership, and speeding time-to-value.
Three Approaches to Product Lifecycle Management Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is a solution that provides the necessary requirements and capabilities companies need to successfully manage information and facilitate communication and collaboration across the entire product lifecycle from idea through retirement. PLM has emerged as the primary means to improve product development processes across the value chain to deliver the most business value. Reacting to customer needs, the marketplace has responded with three primary PLM approaches: systems that are combinations of point applications; systems created by extending the functionality of ERP applications; and integral systems like the PTC Product Development System built around a single repository for all product content.

PTCs Product Development System has an open framework for connectivity and product information sharing with other enterprise applications, such as ERP, CRM, and SCM, as well as prebuilt interfaces and menus within other MCAD and ECAD applications.

Getting the Most Value from Product Development

Many manufacturers struggle to link strategy with operations and, as a result, great plans often fail to become great products. As a practical matter, making that connection requires identifying specic value opportunities and then discovering the most direct path for realizing that value. Thats why PTC created the PTC Value Roadmap a powerful application and database of intellectual property that helps customers systematically link business value to optimization of specic product development processes. Successful companies around the world use our Roadmap to operationalize their corporate strategies by linking them to improvements in product development processes with a simplicity and clarity that did not previously exist in the industry. PTC has the industry expertise to enable discrete manufacturers to then execute those product development process improvements. PTC Global Services and PTC partners offer a wide range of solutions for installation, conguration, migration, and optimization, including pre-packaged Quick Starts. These offerings include proven methods for successful adoption of new processes to accelerate productivity gains.
