Summary
To compete on innovation and deliver high-end functionality, manufacturers are embedding more and more software into their products — and finding that software bugs and compatibility failures can cripple new product introduction (NPI) profits. To address these risks and tame the complexity of embedding software in engineered systems, development teams and service providers must pursue processes that connect the software and physical development domains, foster increased collaboration across these historically separate yet highly interdependent disciplines, and help close the quality gap. With application support offered by vendors of both application life-cycle management (ALM) and product life-cycle management (PLM), business process and application professionals will need a smart combination of capabilities from both areas to enable the change.
