CIMdata Publishes PLM Trends Report, 1 in a Series

By DE Editors

CIMdata has released the CIMdata 2012 PLM Industry Review and Trends Report, the first of five modules of the CIMdata PLM Market Analysis Report Series. The MAR Series provides detailed information and in-depth analysis on the worldwide PLM market during 2011.

The CIMdata 2012 PLM Industry Review and Trends Report is a qualitative report that focuses on key issues facing the global PLM ecosystem of solution providers and end user organizations, according to the company. It highlights changes that occurred in 2011, what effects those changes may have in the short and medium term, and what is on the horizon in the next several years.

Other modules include the Executive PLM Market Report, 2012 PLM Market and Solutoin Supplier Provider Analysis Report, the PLM Market Geographic Analysis Report, and the PLM Market Industry Analysis Report.

“While the global economy sputtered, the PLM economy grew faster than in 2010, which was a very good year,” according to Stan Przybylinski,  CIMdata’s Director of Research. “Most segments of the market that CIMdata tracks saw high double digit growth, with very strong license sales. Given that new license sales are often precursors to more software and services investment, this is a strong indicator that 2012 could be another solid year for PLM solution and services providers.”
