New Releases B
ig Lever Software (Austin, TX) has launched an updated version of its product line engineering (PLE) solution with its new onePLE, which is said to be a holistic solution enabling organizations to achieve competitive advantages by freeing up more time for product innovation and rapidly shar- ing innovations across a product line portfolio. Big Lever’s onePLE helps remove engineering complex-
ity and streamlines the creation, delivery and evolution of a product line. The solution combines Big Lever’s PLE technol- ogy and methods with the business strategy and organiza- tional change needed to accelerate PLE adoption.
“Organizations are being pushed to the edge of their capability by the exponentially growing complexity of today’s products and how they are engineered,” said Charles Krueger, BigLever Software CEO. “As engineering teams are increasingly consumed by the mundane tasks of managing this complexity, the opportunity for creating and fully leverag- ing new product innovations is often lost.” The underpinning of BigLever’s PLE approach is the
creation of a “PLE Factory,” which is much like a typical manufacturing factory except that it operates on digital as- sets rather than physical parts. PLE allows an organization to create a “superset” supply chain of digital assets that can be shared across the entire product line. These digital assets are equipped with all the feature options offered in the product line. The PLE Factory is an automated production system that assembles and configures these shared digital assets based on the features that are selected for each product variation.
