Enterprise 2.0 Adoption Study Good Sign for Social Computing in PLM - PLM and Profitability | Blog on Manufacturing Business Technology

o what does this mean for manufacturers? As much as I would love to jump to the conclusion that social computing is booming, I interpret this differently. I see this as:

Manufacturers are very interested in social computing
The early adopters are hard at work figuring it out
Progress has been cautious (for the most part)

My beliefs on how manufacturers will adopt social computing in product development has not changed:

Most manufacturers will start with the low-hanging fruit of improving collaboration, and most will start internally
Manufacturers will be more likely to adopt social computing techniques when they are incorporated into applications they trust such as PLM, which will protect their intellectual property (IP)
There will be significant value gained by those manufacturers that adopt social computing to improve product innovation, product development, and engineering performance

Internal social networking platforms potentially more valuable to organizations

According to Celent, DAK’s online community was able to:
• Promote a modern information infrastructure through the use of blogging facilities, rich media support, wikis and different widgets. “These modern tools allow for enhanced search, custom dashboard creation, and activity streaming… that promote information transparency through a modern and open environment.”
• Improve knowledge management by capturing and maintaining the data and knowledge generated by employees, even after they leave or retire.
• Adapt to changes and promote employees’ openness to changes and working together.

“Celent recommends that insurers carefully analyse the pros and cons of such a strategy [internal social networking and community] and consider a wide range of methodologies to capture the strategic impact of such initiatives.”
