ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm, announces an upcoming free educational webinar, "Aerospace OEM to Supplier Collaboration: A Look Inside their Future Vision." The webinar will occur on Thursday, 14 October 2021, at 11:00 a.m. (EDT) and will last for one hour.

The Aerospace & Defense PLM Action Group (AD PAG), administered by CIMdata, has been exploring the topic of Global Collaboration since 2017. Initial research focused on identifying those areas of collaboration during product development that would provide the best ROI if improved. The AD PAG's Global Collaboration workgroup is currently developing a future vision of how the data exchange mechanism between the OEM and their suppliers should work.

This webinar will explore some of the problems they want to overcome and their evolving ideas for the future. Industries beyond aerospace, such as automotive and heavy machinery that must deal with their own extensive supply chains, will benefit from the lessons learned and the future vision of the large aerospace players.
