ENOVIA PLM: Key Success Factors for an ENOVIA PLM Upgrade with Embedded Exalead Full-Text Search
B&W PGG will explain the three key factors associated with a successful ENOVIA PLM upgrade that includes an embedded Exalead full-text search: (1) Preparing with organization and planning between upgrades; (2) Strategic partnerships with Dassault Systemes and the B&W business; and (3) A honed upgrade process of tracking, testing, and training. These key success factors led to an upgrade implementation of B&W PGG’s mission critical PLM system with no significant issues affecting business execution while delivering an enhanced experience that realized the end-users’ expectations for improved performance, improved navigation, and the ability to find crucial documentation using the embedded Exalead full text search.
