Why Quantum Lifecycle Management?

Beyond Product Lifecycle Management
Historically, the PLM acronym is usually associated with the Beginning-of-Life (design & manufacturing) phase and is mainly focused on information about each series of products rather than every individual product instance
QLM is the next major leap beyond PLM, addressing instance-level, closed-loop lifecycle information management from Beginning, through Middle to End-of-Life
QLM standards and infrastructure will be applicable to other kinds of lifecycles such as supply chain, food and beverage, human, services etc.
QLM will increase competitiveness and enable new business opportunities

Why Quantum Lifecycle Management?
Copyright (C) The Open Group 2011
Scope of QLM
QLM addresses whole-of-life, closed-loop lifecycle information management enables more efficient exploitation of new
technologies and embedded systems QLM provides a safe, secure, unified way to connect the
trillions of autonomous objects in the “Internet of Things” with people, existing systems and standards
QLM delivers an open architecture and interface standard to: Reduce organizations’ costs through managing
whole-of-life lifecycle information Enable lifecycle management of diverse services
rather than pure products
