A propulsion system from Mercury Marine, the topic of an upcoming webinar on PLM implementation.

If you've been on a luxury sailboat, you may have already seen and felt the power of a Mercury Marine propulsion system. With 4,100 employees dispersed worldwide, Mercury Marine pulls a global manufacturing chain that stretches from Asia and Europe to Mexico, then back to the American heartlands. It maintains facilities in Suzhou, China; Komagane, Japan; Stillwater, Oklahoma; and Charleston, North Carolina, to name but a few locations.

Synchronizing the information streaming through this complex pipeline is one of the biggest challenges when Mercury Marine decided to create a product information backbone--one that would give its engineers, suppliers, and partners "a single source of truth," in Mercury Marine's words. The company's choice was Siemens PLM Software's Teamcenter.

In the upcoming webinar I'm cohosting, we'll speak to Mercury Marine to understand:

  • its approach to PLM (product lifecycle management) deployment;
  • its implementation experience;
  • the benefits and values realized from Teamcenter;
  • best practices it came across; and
  • the consulting services it now offers.
