Nora IPLM – Your Product Lifecycle Management & Innovation Platform

What is Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)?
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is the strategic approach and supporting software that manages a product’s journey from the earliest concept to end-of-life. It centralizes data, processes, and collaboration across teams to streamline development, improve quality, and reduce time-to-market.
PLM platforms help businesses align engineering, operations, manufacturing, and quality teams across the entire lifecycle of a product: from initial idea and design to launch, support, and eventual retirement.
