Abstract :
This paper focuses on product data management (PDM) software and its benefits in shop floor documentation. PDM software allows engineers to track and update product information much more easily by providing an integrated environment. It also greatly facilitates the creation and distribution of work instructions. Personnel on the shop floor benefit by having immediate access to the most recent information and more useful and informative instructions
