Bad control of integrations (Spaghetti architechture)
Integration of PLM related systems are done towards a Backbone solution. It helps us to standardize Information Exchange, Reuse Integrations and Consolidate Product Data

Results
The “Product Language” have established a common base to communicate
about the product in a more innovative environment.
The concept model, and its mapping to the PLCS information model, have made
the information more visible.
The Backbone Architecture have made design information more available to
future production and in service support.
The PLM work has been possible to continue in many years with few
disruptions by the focus on information as the most stable layers of the
Information Pyramid.
The Information Pyramide increased the understanding of what is needed for
a successful IT usage.
Saab Kockums product information will be safeguarded by the standardized
information formats.
The organizations IT-usage is better documented and sustained by a
architecture model that covers all the Information pyramid layers.
The Architecture model is a important decision tool supporting IT-governance.
