PLM System UX Development

Product data outlasts the people who entered it, and the screen shows all of it at once.

A PLM system holds the development record for a product, which makes any single view crowded by nature.

On a dense screen the design decision is placement and route — where the things people look for every day sit, and how search and browsing divide the work between them.

Research ran alongside the interface and graphics improvements. It was carried out in parallel with the department's other systems so that the rules came out the same across them.
