Product lifecycle management: what sectors and what technologies used? A systematic literature review

Abstract

Product lifecycle management (PLM) constitutes a strategic approach in business that encompasses a variety of practices aimed at facilitating the collaborative creation, organization, dissemination, and utilization of information pertinent to the definition of a product throughout its entire life cycle. This strategy seeks to integrate individuals, processes, information, and organizational systems effectively. The present article delineates the applications of PLM within the defense, automotive, and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) sectors, while also presenting findings from a systematic literature review (SLR). The analysis identifies the current state of PLM applications within the specified sectors and evaluates their effectiveness. Furthermore, the integration of PLM with artificial intelligence and digital twins is explored, highlighting significant avenues for future research in this domain.
