Benefit From an Integrated, Transparent, and Compliant
Approach to Electronics Development
Streamlining Compliance Processes
With complete visibility, traceability, and transparency throughout electronics hardware development, design organizations can track engineering activities, manage processes, and document design decisions. Lifecycle ensures a comprehensive record of all development activities, streamlines compliance processes, and reduces the risk of non-compliance issues and delays.
Connecting People, Tools, and Processes
Our compliance-centric and digitally integrated approach to electronics hardware development connects ECAD with key business systems, eliminates development silos, and extends electronics hardware design into the broader enterprise ecosystem and regulated product development. Lifecycle streamlines collaboration throughout the development process, enhances operational efficiency, and reduces compliance risks accelerating product development and time to market.
Achieving Electronics Design Transparency
Understanding ECAD design data, processes, and compliance information natively transforms the electronics "black box" into transparent, understandable content that enhances integrations with product management and key business systems. Lifecycle complements and works with PLM systems to ensure everything from specifications to design revisions and approvals is accessible, synchronized, and integrated, improving change management, accountability, and visibility.
Legrand Accelerates Time to Market with Altium
“Our team of 50 people are all pointed in the same direction, provided with the same data to work from, and given the same process. The result? We have seen a significant - almost 50% - drop in our failures. And we see products that are much higher quality, and integrity. And our customers are much happier.”
John Watson Senior PCB Engineer, Legrand
Lightmatter Found Their Competitive Edge Using Altium Enterprise Solutions
“Altium streamlines our board design process because it’s cloud-based and under version control. I can share designs with internal and external teams, they can pull it down to their workstation, work on it, and save it to the server. I don’t have to type up a million notes every night about how you need to match this length or move this component. Altium allows for a much more efficient back and forth.”
Jim Carr, Director of System Design, Lightmatter
iRobot Overcomes PLM Integration Challenges with Altium
“This is what we've always been waiting for. The library parts are right here. I don't have to go anywhere. I don't have to sync. I can create my own projects. I can set up permissions for projects. We can work in smaller teams. We can do design reviews ourselves. All built into the tool.”
Scott Morris, Platform Manager, iRobot
