Cummins turns to Windchill for global product development

Engines giant Cummins has selected Windchill, PTC's PLM (product lifecycle management) software, as its global product development system.

"Cummins has made the concept of 'design anywhere, build anywhere' a cornerstone of its business initiatives and commitment to customers," explains Chris MacAslan, director, global PLM, Cummins. "In switching to Windchill, we are looking to optimise accessibility throughout all functional areas of our PLM environment. In particular, the Windchill solution will allow us to best achieve our compliance and productivity goals and successfully extend our competitive advantage." He expects the new system to allow Cummins to "streamline and accelerate" its key development and product introduction processes, as well as to advance its productivity around the world. And MacAslan also points to the company's compliance and performance objectives.
