Concept Design

Generate, capture, analyze, and approve, product concepts that address product strategy goals. Transfer approved concepts directly to PLM solutions for prototype planning, detailed design and product introduction.

Key features:

  • Concepts can align toward strategy goals like optimal material and development costs, features, roadmap, partnership objectives, and future technology migration.

  • Product managers can compare and optimize competing concepts to support product strategy goals, and securely share the results with existing and potential supply chain partners or external design teams.

  • Trace concepts in detail from ideas and requirements to finished products, for engineering clarifications, process analysis and improvement activities.

Use the Concept Design work area to create concepts and manage existing concepts. With the Edit Concept task you can develop, maintain, and analyze concept structures.

Web services are also available to help you create, get, edit, and delete a concept or its concept components, as well as manage concept versions.
