The Internet of Things (IoT)is transforming products, services, business models, and the basis of competition. Learn how companies are adapting, creating new strategies, and transforming their businesses to take advantage of new technologies, and creating new offerings that fundamentally change their relationship with their customers.   Presented by: Bill  McBeath, Chainlink Research   See all PTC Live Global 2015 - PTC ThingWorx and IoT Presentations

As an executive you will need more than luck on your side to navigate through this perfect storm that promises to deliver a tsunami of change.  Green culture, servitization of product, digital ubiquity, cloud computing and mass social acceptance of connectivity will fundamentally shift the focus from competing on selling the best technology product, to delivering a product that will open the door to value added services. For the incumbent technology producer, technology alone might get you to the customers doorstep, but value based services will get you an invitation to be a strategic partner.  Sitting on the technology stoop of yesterday will reduce your once coveted technology offering into a simple commodity, and nimble start ups fueled by hyper innovation cycles will leverage your technology as the welcome mat to your former customer. Are you ready?   Presented by: David Sherburne, Carestream Health   See all PTC Live Global 2015 - PTC ThingWorx and IoT Presenta

Today’s manufacturers have transitioned their focus from individual products to platforms and variants that give them speed and agility in the marketplace.  In this presentation, presenter explore new approaches to design reuse that help you make more informed product line and variant design decisions. Product line engineering can be as straightforward as building an overloaded 150% model, selecting the individual items you want to see in any variant, then generating that variant into a product model for budget analysis and detailed design. Explore a structured approach to assessing product line alternatives and making more informed design decisions.   Presented by: Hedley Apperly, PTC   See all PTC Live Global 2015 - PTC Integrity and ALM Presentations

Are the systems engineering efforts of your organization challenged to coordinate requirements management; test planning, execution, and coverage; and process compliance across multiple projects in multiple locations around the world? The modern era of “lean processes”, “agile development”, “globally distributed development teams”, and “connecting the Internet to everything” certainly brings new challenges to systems engineering, program management, and project management disciplines. The presenter will walk attendees through Trane’s implementation of PTC Integrity to support their systems engineering discipline; demonstrate how to support a stage-gate process across an entire enterprise using PTC Integrity; and explain how Trane utilized capabilities in PTC Integrity to meet these challenges.   Presented by: Sean McCoy, Trane/Ingersoll-Rand   See all PTC Live Global 2015 - PTC Integrity and ALM Presentations

A global leader in navigation and mapping products, TomTom also creates GPS sports watches, fleet management solutions and other location-based products. Data management is central to the company’s mission and product lines. The Maps department relies on PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager as its ALM backbone to choreograph the complex series of applications required to acquire, normalize and package data for its subscription customers. The information stored in PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager is utilized by multiple departments at TomTom Maps, including product management, development, customer- service and support teams. To better support these departmental needs, the team have created custom user interfaces (including a mobile user interface), advanced reporting and various integrations. In this presentation, the presenter will explore their approach to designing, developing and deploying these custom user interfaces and reports, and provide practical advice for customizing your own PTC

Manufacturers of safety-critical software face all the complexities of software-intensive product development PLUS stringent regulatory oversight. Products must conform to multiple, overlapping standards created by different regulatory bodies.  With safety-critical software development, process is often viewed as a leading indicator of quality and is therefore auditable by regulatory authorities. This presentation will explore process norms and approaches of real world safety-critical product development environments using PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager.   Presented by: Ryan Lloyd, PTC   See all PTC Live Global 2015 - PTC Integrity and ALM Presentations

Integrating an ever increasing amount of software into their products has become a priority for many product development companies. PTC's strategy for addressing this critical need is centered around their PTC Integrity ALM product suite. The executive leadership at BAE Systems US Controls saw the general business case for an integrated ALM/PLM solution, but they asked how Integrity stacks up against open source alternatives. This presentation will explore the answer to that question.   Presented by: Ron Welch, BAE Systems   See all PTC Live Global 2015 - PTC Integrity and ALM Presentations

Investing in an integrated ALM/PLM solution is a large undertaking, but maintaining manual and silo-based sets of data can be even more costly.

It is possible for companies outside the aerospace and defense industries to successfully tailor and adopt Systems Engineering methods and techniques. In fact some companies that produce medical devices, digital storage devices, laboratory diagnostic equipment and organizations that seek to increase reliability of the power grid are already adopting and implementing systems engineering. This presentation explores how and why companies outside of the Aerospace and Defense industries can successfully implement systems engineering. It looks at the myths or “Barriers to Yes” that keep some companies from even considering systems engineering and examines the real facts and benefits. The presentation will describe three views of systems engineering with a focus on the key view, the systems thinking perspective.  The presenter will also explain how systems engineering can be tailored and applied to virtually any industry to provide leadership, manage risk, and deal with complexity.
