PLM-Automation Market Evolution: The PLM Footprint Steps Onto the Factory Floor
Overview The recent announcement of the intended acquisition of UGS by Siemens AG has generated an explosion of discussion about the impact that this move could have on both companies involved and on the PLM industry in general. This paper is not intended to assess the acquisition itself because much has already been written about the anticipated impact on the involved companies. Rather, this paper will review the potential impact of this acquisition on the overall PLM market; its ramifications on the market's evolution, competitive landscape, and overall value to industrial companies. After this acquisition, UGS will become a unit within Siemens' Automation and Drives (A&D) Group; one of the largest suppliers of Factory Automation solutions to industrial organizations.
