A top-tier PLM connects the product record end to end—or fragmentation persists into production.

What the slide argues

The priority stack spans 18 capabilities, from style and tech pack through AI, suppliers, costing, quality, APIs, and commerce handoff. When those steps run on separate tools and inboxes, each handoff injects wait time the factory cannot recover.

Slide analysis

Implication

Evaluate PLM as one connected product backbone — the priority capabilities must share records, workflow, and handoffs. Leave the hand-offs fragmented and the calendar will keep paying the same tax. The decision is commercial, not cosmetic: either the style has one home, or every function keeps its own copy.
