High_tech_plm
The V6 PLM platform makes it possible to create, implement and manage a global method of introducing new, innovative products into the marketplace.

It is an important mechanism for increasing the effectiveness of the NPI (New Product Introduction) and NPD (New Product Development) processes.


It makes it possible not only to reduce development costs and times and the risks inherent in accelerating the TTM (Time to Market), but also to control the risks associated with product-related services and warranties in particular.

  • OUR PRODUCTS

The High-Tech industry is undergoing constant transformation, which impacts on this sector’s entire ecosystem. Transformation takes several forms:

  • Convergence of IT, telecommunication and media businesses in which the Internet is now playing an increasingly important part
  • Global economy, where sustainable development and regulations are calling for the emergence of new generations of intelligent "green" products
  • Development of economic models accelerated by the erosion of margins on conventional services, increased competition, the expectations for innovative solutions constantly integrating technological developments from different horizons and the arrival of new players (e.g. Apple, Free, Google, etc.)
  • Complementarity of "general public" and "professional" markets in terms of income and margins, as well as products and technologies (M2M, NFC), in particular to meet the tertiary industries' high demands for communication.

These significant changes require the transformation of companies’ operational processes and their models globally across all the in-house activities of the company and beyond to all the communities associated with product development.

V6 solutions provide the High-Tech industry with:

  • A single global collaboration platform to address the challenges and support the entire product design cycle, from the initial stage through to engineering, manufacturing, sub-contracting and service
  • The means to support and standardise key operational business processes.
Single global collaboration platform
  • To involve all the stakeholders as early as possible, in order to devise and validate new service or product concepts, deploy new technologies and reduce the TTM
  • To compile, validate and share information in a structured engineering document repository and thereby increase its reuse
  • To encourage an industry approach to standardising the processes to be equipped with tools and the infrastructures to be deployed
  • To encourage an industry approach to standardising the assemblies to be produced.
Operational business processes 

Management of the product portfolio
and technological platforms
to better react to the demands of the market and control the variability of the product portfolio:

  • Management of needs, specifications and functions
  • Management of the portfolio and different types of products
  • Management of product conformity to current rules and standards.

Engineering and collaborative validation

  • Systems engineering and mechatronics to control the development of pluridisciplinary systems (electronics, software, mechanics)
  • Definition of the Master Product to control and manage changes carried out throughout the life cycle.
  • Product simulation to perform reliability and performance target specifications.

Management of sub-contractors:

  • Linking the design and sourcing process is becoming more and more critical with the increase in the proportion of subcontracting involved in the final product
  • RFx process
  • Qualification of subcontractors and components
  • Virtual plateau and engineering package exchange to integrate the partners into the co-design process.

Design-to-manufacturing
engineering practices used to optimise concurrently the design and manufacture of the assemblies that make up the final product

  • From style to design and manufacture of boxes produced end-to-end
  • Manufacturing and maintenance schedule
  • Digital planning of assembly operations.

Our PLM solutions enable high-tech sector companies to:

  • Better manage customer demands in response to market needs
  • Focus on innovation and constantly and quickly put new innovative services on the market, whilst keeping control of content and intellectual property
  • Control the complexity of products and systems
  • Increase collaboration and reuse of "business assets" to reduce costs, from product launch to operation, and the associated risks
  • Allow flexibility, modularity and portability of engineering, production and services on company and subcontractor sites, whilst complying with the increasingly strict international and local regulations
  • Improve the quality of product portfolio definition
  • Ensure that their products conform to functional, technical and regulatory requirements.

Our package consists of PLM solutions and a range of services, from consultancy to operational support:
