Envision PLM

Linx/AS makes understanding PLM easy.

We hear this in conversation often, talking to clients, potential customers, and SAP users we meet while presenting at major events. We make PLM easy, because we get the business side and the technology side.

Our people bring real business experience to the job—R&D, manufacturing, engineering, and production for example. Add to this, years of hands-on experience, working through release after release of SAP, and you can see why PLM comes naturally to us.

In sharing our approach with clients, Linx/AS has packaged its best practices in a structured process called Linx/AS PLM Vision™ Methodology.

Linx/AS PLM Vision™ Methodology—an accelerated 3-phase planning process to help companies develop a practical PLM strategy.


Kickoff sessions lay the groundwork for the engagement. Together, we establish the core team of resources required, set executive goals and expectations, audit the current SAP/IT landscape, and document known pain points.


In Focus, the team looks at a specific business process or group of processes to determine efficiencies, inefficiencies, and how SAP or complementary solutions can optimize the business.


Vision synthesizes the findings into a PLM road map: prioritized, incremental projects supported by business case and resource requirements. Each project has stage-gate ROI goals, so a measure of success, consistency, and progress can be documented as the larger strategic vision rolls out.
