Strategy & solution design

Shape Consult

Before a line is configured, the foundation has to be right. Shape Consult aligns your processes, systems, and organisational goals into a clear PLM direction, and a roadmap that survives contact with reality.

Capabilities

PLM strategy and roadmap

A clear, phased path from where you are to where you need to be, sequenced around business value, not vendor features.

Process analysis & design

We map your current state, find the friction, and design optimised future-state workflows for change, release, and quality.

Technology selection

Vendor-agnostic evaluation so you choose the platform that fits your organisation, not the one with the loudest sales team.

Solution architecture

Data models, integration strategy, and configuration blueprints defined up front, so implementation has a plan to build to.

Change management

Stakeholder alignment, communications, and adoption planning, because a system no one uses delivers no value.

Governance & operating model

The roles, standards, and governance that keep PLM well-run and improving long after go-live.

You leave with artefacts, not opinions

Every engagement produces documented, actionable outputs your team can pick up and run with immediately.

  • A PLM vision with executive alignment
  • Documented future-state processes and workflows
  • A validated technology choice and business case
  • A phased implementation roadmap with milestones
  • A change and adoption plan
