ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- CIMdata, Inc., the leading global research, consulting, and education firm specializing in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and the Digital Transformation it enables, announces that Accenture, Autodesk, Capgemini, SAP, and Siemens Digital Industries Software have joined as sponsors for its landmark research program, "AI in Product Development."

The participation of these five industry leaders, along with many industrial companies, shows how important AI has become for digital transformation. As sponsors, these organizations will provide the support and industry perspective needed to examine how AI is used, how mature it is, and what ROI it delivers in manufacturing today.

"Industrial organizations currently lack the fact-based data needed to navigate the rapidly evolving AI ecosystem, and we are honored to have the support of such a distinguished group of sponsors for this groundbreaking research initiative," said Peter Bilello, President & CEO of CIMdata. "By sponsoring this initiative, these leading solution providers are helping to establish the industry's first authoritative baseline. This research will capture a 360-degree view of the market—from the software platforms driving innovation to the global service providers navigating complex enterprise deployments."

The initial phase of the research program involves participating in a multi-track survey tailored to three distinct groups: Industrial Companies, Software Providers, and Service Providers. This ensures that every participant contributes to and receives insights relevant to their specific role in the PLM ecosystem.

The survey takes approximately 25 minutes to complete. Participants select the survey that best fits their experience. All responses are strictly confidential and reported in aggregate only. Participants who complete the survey may opt in to receive a summary of the key findings, which will help inform their own AI strategy and planning decisions.
