Why product lifecycle
transformation matters

Changing how fast and efficient your product lifecycle goes provides your organization a range of benefits.

  • Improved productivity
  • Operational cost reduction
  • Faster innovation
  • Improved time-to-market

Industrial Manufacturers report that low code helps them address these use cases across the product development lifecycle:

  • 52%

    Digital transformation

  • 47%

    Novel technology (e.g. AI)

  • 41%

    Application portfolio management

  • 35%

    Workflow automation

  • 27%

    Legacy modernization

Accelerate product innovation

Adapt your product lifecycle management (PLM) tools to create tailored experiences for your product teams’ needs.

With low code, leverage your product, part, and project data to enable collaboration across the product lifecycle development lifecycle and accelerate engineering change.

  • Leverage your experts

    Use model-based collaboration to bring domain expertise into the product lifecycle.

  • Speed up with AI

    Implement GenAI and agentic AI to digitize and automate workflows to speed up release cycles.

  • Connect to the digital thread

    Integrate with ease to get engineering data downstream.

"Our engineers can rely on the data from our product portal because it's the latest and greatest, being fed into this layer from the data lake. They're visualizing it in a Mendix interface, and it's surfacing things from their application of choice."
Anu MishraVP of Application Engineering, Mercury Systems

The Mendix platform lets your rapidly deliver tailored software solutions that seamlessly integrate with product lifecycle, computer-aided engineering, enterprise resource planning (ERP), and other engineering systems. You get faster collaboration, efficient design, and end-to-end visibility.

Intelligent automation
Orchestrate engineering workflows & create agents that act on insights.
On-time delivery
Build composable building blocks to help quickly build fit-for-purpose software.
Integration
Connect all your engineering systems with pre-built connectors to PLM systems, like Teamcenter.
Collaboration
Collaborate across the product development lifecycle with model-based development.
"Combining Teamcenter with Mendix is really how we achieved what we wanted from both an engineering perspective and show floor perspective."
Steven AbbeyPLM Business Analyst, Team Penske

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does a modern tech stack impact the product lifecycle?

    A modern tech stack means fewer tools and easier access to other systems of record. By limiting the number of tools in the product development lifecycle and making it easier to integrate with other systems, engineering teams can accelerate innovation and release cycles. A unified development platform like Mendix lets you start building with your engineering systems rather than work around them.

  • What are the benefits of using low code for engineering teams?

    Low code lets you develop tailored product development and engineering solutions more easily, at speed, and with compliance. An enterprise-grade, low-code platform like Mendix serves as a one-stop shop for solution delivery by offering AI, intelligent process automation, and integration.

  • Can Mendix integrate with our existing PLM/ERP systems?

    Yes, Mendix has a library of pre-built connectors and modules that help you easily integrate with your PLM, ERP, and other engineering systems of record. Mendix has a Teamcenter connector built to help you adapt and extend your Teamcenter PLM data.

  • What challenges do manufacturers face with legacy product lifecycle management tools?

    Legacy product development lifecycle tools can create bottlenecks in getting engineering data into downstream systems. With older systems, it can be difficult for engineering teams to incorporate AI and automation into design and engineering workflows.
