The true benefits are still in the future, but there are issues with the PLM solution on the designer level. To prevent such a situation in the future, the authors suggest that benefits shall be defined for all phases in the PLM implementation, not just as high business goals for the final stage. That way, you keep momentum in the change effort and keep all parties motivated. %G English %Z TC 5 %Z WG 5.1 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01526145/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01526145/file/978-3-642-35758-9_44_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01526145 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01526145 %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC5 %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-PLM %~ IFIP-WG5-1 %~ IFIP-AICT-388
