PTC Launches AI-Powered FlexPLM Capabilities

PTC shares new artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities for its FlexPLM retail product lifecycle management (PLM) solution that automate tech pack creation. 

With the FlexPLM AI-driven tech pack generation capabilities, teams can automatically extract data from design drawings and instantly populate bills of materials (BOMs), measurements, construction details, attributes, and colorways. 

“Bringing AI to FlexPLM is about more than automation; it’s a fundamental shift in how product development teams work,” says Kyle Marden, general manager of PTC’s Retail Business Unit. “By enabling reduced manual effort and an accelerated path from concept to sample, intelligent Retail PLM can help brands move faster and respond with greater confidence.”

These capabilities build on PTC’s Intelligent Product Lifecycle vision, which combines structured product data with AI to improve decision-making, streamline workflows, and boost productivity across the product lifecycle. 

PTC will demonstrate how FlexPLM supports end-to-end retail transformation, from AI-powered product development and supply chain visibility to sustainability initiatives and evolving sustainability and regulatory requirements.
