CM & PLM & Training


Truth, Trust and Traceability
This is CM
My success is when you have saved costs, your processes and workflows are optimized and when you are adequately protected in the event of damage. I am an expert in configuration management (CM).
Attention, my enthusiasm for CM is contagious. Inspiring others is my passion. I share my broad knowledge with interested audiences at trade fairs and conferences as a speaker or moderator and I enjoy the respectful discourse and openness in the exchange of experiences - in German, English and Bavarian.
(Larry Gurule)
Since 1989, I have never been bored while working for various companies on a wide variety of projects at the software, device, system and product level. CM is always an exciting and promising topic, whether in the automotive industry, in simulation projects, in the defense sector or in aerospace programs such as Typhoon, Tornado or drones (UAVs, Unmanned Air Vehicles).
It has always been and will always be important to me to create acceptance and understanding of the value of configuration management among people in the company with my range of services in the areas of assessment, consulting and training.

Definition of configuration management
Configuration management (CM) provides the transparency required for effectiveness and efficiency in product development. To this end, data such as specifications, circuit diagrams, parts lists, material requirements, etc., as well as the description of methods and processes, are documented in a professionally and technically consistent manner.
CM also describes all change processes across the entire Product Lifecycle Management (PLM): whenever new configurations are developed, reviewed for impact, tested, released and finally implemented.
CM therefore not only knows the current construction status of a product, but also ensures traceability in product engineering at all times as well as traceability in the sense of consumer protection.
I support you with assessment, consulting and training in configuration management.
