Why IpX?
Trusted Experts
Many companies do not have dedicated digital transformation expertise. Those that do may find them short-staffed with budget constraints and looming deadlines. Having insufficient CM and/or digital transformation expertise causes organizations to operate in corrective action mode with an inability to comply with regulatory standards and increased intervention resource expenditures in quality and schedule.
IpX resources are adept at seamlessly joining client-partner teams and collaborating effectively and efficiently. Our resources are experienced in working directly with clients to investigate, define, and document their business requirements. Resources provide high performance as either an individual contributor or team/technical leader for your project. Resources are disciplined self-starters with demonstrated ability to work efficiently from a remote location.

PLM System Support Services
Business and design specifications built to reduce PLM user adoption concerns, cycle times, configuration and fit-for-purpose costs, design defects, and overall project schedules
IpX understands the criticality, urgent timing, risks, and path to successful PLM selection, deployment, implementation, and configuration.
Setting the Standard for PLM Tool Development
IpX is not a technology provider. Rather, the IpX service model built on our proprietary CM2 methodology offers a proven pragmatic approach to guide decision making, manage the disruptive aspects of change, and reduce risk.
IpX works with tool providers to ensure that their commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products meet the requirements in our proprietary CM2-600 standard. Because of this, IpX is uniquely positioned to guide your PLM deployment to success. We have extensive knowledge of and relationships with Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) providers, which will be leveraged to ensure your organization aligns with the best tool. IpX partners with the PLM community through the IpX Digital Tool Certification process, certifying PLM products based on its ability to enable IpX’s proprietary CM2 processes and workflows.
Start Smart with Structured Assessments
The first step in any successful PLM deployment is an assessment to identify current practices, gaps, strengths, and opportunities that exist both within the written procedures as well as knowledge capture from individuals – “how things really get done.” We will analyze the current state of operations, systems utilization, and provide conclusions and summaries that culminates with a detailed assessment report and an IpX executive led presentation summarizing the recommended process improvements and actions for successful PLM deployment.
HOW WE ENGAGE
Technological Evolution
IpX PLM Services are a part of our modern and modular approach that extracts the needed performance objective from new technologies, with measurable growth, productivity, and efficiency across the enterprise. The IpX True North service model offers a proven pragmatic methodology to guide decision making, manage the disruptive aspects of change, and reduce risk. This is accomplished, in part, by holistically and incrementally addressing people, processes, and the supporting technologies that create and manage the organization’s critical intellectual assets.
Process Definition and Functional Requirements Generation
IpX will work with your organization to develop PLM functional requirements and business use cases. This includes heavy consideration of the required tool functionality and needed integrations based on a closed-loop process tailored for your environment.
Vendor Comparison and Recommendation
Implementation and Migration Strategy
IpX utilizes an Agile methodology for software development and implementation. Agile is an iterative approach to project management and software development that helps teams deliver value to their customers faster. Instead of performing a “big bang” launch, an agile team delivers work in small and easily consumable increments. Requirements, plans, and results are evaluated continuously so teams have a natural mechanism for responding to change quickly using multiple short development sprints.

CM2-13 Optimizing the Software Lifecycle With CM2
- Virtual Duration: 3 days
- CEUs granted through Purdue University
- Standard Individual Student Price: $164
- The certificate is awarded upon completion
- Digital course manual provided with the option to purchase a printed cop
- Prior CM2 Graduates receive refresher credit for retention of their CM2 certification
Course Detail
Place holder
This course describes how the CM2 model for configuration management (CM) can be applied to software. The challenge boils down to what an organization believes. Organizations either expect software code to come out right the first time, or they do not. Its process will be designed accordingly.
Place holder
CM2 for software is a scaled agile iterative methodology that ensures that software design definition is clear, concise, valid. Source code is not written until the design to be achieved has been documented, validated and released by its co-owners.
Place holder
With CM2, the development effort is led by a cross-functional team whose members have the full range of needed expertise. The same members serve as the Change Review Board (CRB). Change decisions are made quickly and, if approved, implemented promptly.
Place holder
The CM2 model is designed to ensure that code comes out right the first time. This does not mean software development is not an iterative process. It is where the iterations take place that is most important. With CM2, the customer and the developer gain a good grasp of what the overall product is going to be at an early point in its lifecycle.
