ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Dec. 2, 2014 - PRLog -- CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm announces the release of the CIMdata 2014 PLM Industry report, the fifth of five modules of the CIMdata PLM Market Analysis Report Series. The MAR Series provides detailed information and in-depth analysis on the worldwide PLM market during 2013. It contains analyses of major trends and issues; revenues of leading PLM providers; and revenue analyses for geographical regions, industry sectors, and historical and projected data on market growth.

The CIMdata PLM Market Analysis Report Series is packaged as five modules:

1.       The CIMdata 2014 Executive PLM Market Report provides an overview of CIMdata’s complete global analysis. It includes key charts on PLM market investment statistics through 2013, forecasts of investments for 2014 through 2018, and a summary of PLM solution providers’ performance in 2013.

2.       The CIMdata 2014 PLM Industry Review and Trends Report is mainly qualitative in nature, and focuses on key issues facing the global PLM ecosystem of solution providers and end user organizations. It highlights changes that occurred in 2013, what effects those changes may have in the short and medium term, and what is on the horizon in the years to come.

3.       The CIMdata 2014 PLM Market and Solution Provider Analysis Report details measures of and forecasts for the overall PLM market and its key segments, including Tools, cPDm, and Digital Manufacturing. The Tools section has additional details on sub-segments, including MCAD, NC, S&A, EDA, and AEC. It also includes CIMdata’s estimates of PLM solution provider revenues in these segments and sub-segments for 2014 through 2018.

4.       The CIMdata 2014 PLM Market Geographic Analysis Report provides an additional view of the 2013 market results, by major geography. CIMdata’s 2013 estimates and market forecasts for 2014 through 2018 for PLM and the major PLM market segments are provided for the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific. In addition, the report includes estimates and forecasts for the cPDm segment within specific European and Asia-Pacific countries and regions.

5.       The CIMdata 2014 PLM Market Industry Analysis Report provides an industry segmentation view of the 2013 market results. CIMdata’s 2013 estimates and market forecasts for 2014 through 2018 for PLM and cPDm are provided for eight different industry sectors: aerospace and defense; automotive and other transportation; electronics/telecommunications; fabrication and assembly; process-packaged goods; process—petrochemical; utilities; and construction, infrastructure and shipbuilding.

During 2013, all industries continued their recovery from the global recession.  CIMdata forecasts a continued rebound to growth in all industries during the five-year forecast period. PLM spending is greatest in automotive, fabrication and assembly, electronics and telecommunications, and aerospace and defense. It is lower in the process industries and utilities. There are some good process PLM solutions available, but most are not integrated with mechanical PLM, resulting in a challenge for companies in the consumer packaged goods industry, for instance, whose products have both formulation and discrete components (e.g., packaging). CIMdata believes there are good opportunities in all segments as corporate management continues to become more cognizant of the value of PLM and its positive impact on both the top and bottom lines of a business. During 2013, comprehensive providers continued to expand their efforts to deliver more industry-focused and functional packaged solutions that are easier and less expensive to acquire and deploy

“Companies in all industries continue to face global competition and must address increased product and supply chain management complexities, cost pressures, and time-to-market demands that can make or break a company’s profitability,” states Stan Przybylinski, CIMdata VP of Research. “Using PLM to create highly collaborative, distributed, flexible design and manufacturing environments to better manage the entire product or plant lifecycle is critical to all industries.”

The CIMdata PLM Market Analysis Report Series is available as a five-module set or each module can be purchased separately. It is also available as part of the CIMdata PLM Community Gold Membership. Further details and pricing information about the report and Community Memberships are available at www.cimdata.com.
