In this episode of PLM411, Tech-Clarity’s Jim Brown interviews Mike Pierce to understand how PLM helps Swivl save tens of thousands of dollars by eliminating mistakes. Mike shares his experience that most companies have to “experience something awful” before they realize they need PLM, and then find out how fast PLM makes life easier for them. Mike tells us that even startups have no reason not to use PLM – and in fact can’t afford not to use it – because the cloud has dropped adoption cost and time, providing a tremendous resource for even the smallest companies.
