Leifheit cleans up documentation with Siemens PLM
German household appliances manufacturer Leifheit says it is standardising on Siemens PLM Software’s Teamcenter solution to improve product documentation .
Michael Zwipp, Leifheit’s CIO, says that the company intends to manage all product engineering data centrally and improve maintenance of its product documentation throughout its cleaning appliances, laundry care, kitchen appliances and scales products.
“PLM offers us tremendous advantages through its comprehensive document structures and by speeding up workflows,” says Zwipp. “We are convinced that the implementation of Teamcenter will boost our product development rate substantially.”
Teamcenter will enable Leifheit to systematically file product documents – in some cases up to 50 different documents per product, including drawings, manuals and test documents – so that they are available to every team throughout the organisation.
