With the complexity of products continually increasing, and organizations reliant on their distributed supply chains, managing the change process and communicating change status across many groups continues to be increasingly challenging. With such distributed environments, it becomes imperative that all stakeholders understand product configurations and proposed product changes. Change processes that are ineffective or poorly managed can leave organizations struggling to improve quality, with increased time-to-market and poor cost management. 

The change processes in the Aras PLM Platform manage all change requests, assessments, plans, and orders to a product or system. These processes ensure that users internally and throughout the supply chain have visibility into the engineering change status for the product(s) that they are involved with throughout the full product lifecycle. Product change histories are automatically captured and recorded as part of the product development, further building out the product’s digital thread.
