Description

Sustainability-Driven Product Design

This IDC Perspective highlights many of the issues related to achieving sustainability-driven product design. Developing environmentally sustainable products is important for both industrial and consumer markets, applying equally to discrete and process manufacturers. A growing number of environmental regulations are driving manufacturers to incorporate LCA capabilities into their PLM processes. According to IDC's worldwide survey of more than 800 product life-cycle management (PLM) and service life-cycle management (SLM) decision makers (May 2021), manufacturers are prioritizing PLM to achieve their most pressing product sustainability goals."Sustainability-driven product design relies on a digital thread across the entire product life cycle to deliver relevant, accurate data about the environmental impact of each decision within the design and development process," said John Snow, research director, Product Innovation Strategies at IDC.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
