Jun 2019 - Present
Having worked for the 2 largest PLM vendors and one of the worlds most diverse adopters of PLM, I realised that a lot of companies can benefit from the principles of PLM - changing people and processes without huge technology investment or service delivery spend from a vendor. This is why I set up Delta PLM, to provide a people, process and change consultancy service independent of technology or vendor to enable customers to achieve a level of digitalisation maturity that is appropriate for them.
