The Importance of Preconfigured PDM
Start quickly and achieve benefits rapidly
“Implementing [PDM] software
without significant modifications
helps companies achieve
benefits more rapidly … get up
to speed quickly and then grow
from there to gain further
benefits.”

Preconfigured PDM Delivers Rapid Results
Weir Valves & Controls
“We keep our PDM as ‘vanilla’ as
possible to keep it simple, very
little has been changed from the
standard … [realizing] reduction
in engineering errors, efficiency,
[and] time savings through not
having to search for data.”
