In order to deeply interpret the development status of the PLM industry and judge the future trend, Zhiyan Consulting has carefully compiled and launched the "2024-2030 China PLM Industry Competition Pattern Analysis and Investment Development Research Report" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report"). This report is not only a comprehensive and detailed review of China's PLM market, but also the crystallization of Zhiyan Consulting's continuous tracking, on-site visits, in-depth research and accurate analysis over the years. It aims to help industry elites and investors grasp the pulse of the market more accurately, gain insight into industry trends, and provide strong support for future decision-making.
The report mainly studies the development of China's PLM industry, involving PLM market size, segmented product scale, market revenue structure and other segmented data.
The report analyzes the development status of the PLM industry in an all-round way from the aspects of domestic and foreign economic environment, domestic policies, and development trends, and provides corresponding suggestions and decision-making support for industry manufacturers to grasp industry dynamics and future innovation trends.
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is a systematic approach to managing the entire life cycle of a product, from conceptual design, development, production, use, and decommissioning. PLM integrates people, data, processes, and business systems and provides a centralized, shared knowledge base for all product information to support all phases of product development and management.
PLM is an important part of enterprise informatization, and products can be mainly divided into three categories: CAx, cPDm and digital manufacturing: PLM integrates computer-aided design (CAD), auxiliary analysis (CAE), assisted manufacturing (CAE) and product data management (PDM) systems, so that enterprises can efficiently and economically apply, integrate and manage the design and information of the whole life cycle of products and services from design, research and development, production and final scrapping.
From the perspective of the development process of PLM software, from the early CAD products to PDM, and then from PDM to PLM software, it has experienced three important eras: the 70s of the 20th century (CAD era), the 90s of the 20th century (PDM era), and the beginning of the 21st century (PLM era).
PLM is a holistic management approach that helps companies improve efficiency, reduce costs, improve product quality, and enhance market competitiveness by integrating and optimizing all phases of the product lifecycle. In the modern enterprise, PLM has become a key tool to drive product innovation and continuous improvement. With the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry and the advancement of intelligent manufacturing, more and more enterprises have begun to pay attention to the application of PLM systems to improve product development efficiency, shorten time to market, reduce costs and improve product quality. In recent years, China's PLM market has continued to grow. In 2023, the PLM market size in China will increase from 11.87 billion yuan in 2016 to 30.22 billion yuan, of which simulation analysis will increase from 2.9 billion yuan in 2016 to 8.018 billion yuan, CPDM scale will increase from 2.862 billion yuan in 2016 to 6.425 billion yuan, and multidisciplinary CAD scale will increase from 2.689 billion yuan in 2016 to 5.833 billion yuan. With the gradual expansion of PLM application fields in the mainland, the scale of the PLM market in the mainland will maintain a continuous growth trend, and the future prospects of the industry are bright.
The industrial ecology of China's PLM industry has been continuously improved, forming an ecosystem of software providers, system integrators, consulting service providers and other parties. In addition, more and more enterprises are adopting an open cooperation model to promote the development of PLM technology and applications with partners inside and outside the industry.
The main components of the upstream of the industry chain mainly include PLM software development, new technology research and application, hardware equipment, etc., these new technologies may include artificial intelligence, big data analysis, cloud computing, Internet of Things, etc., and the application of PLM system in the product design and development stage is one of the most important parts.
The midstream of the industry is product life cycle management (PLM), mainly including system integrators, consulting service providers, service outsourcers, training and certification bodies, solution providers, etc., this link is the key link to introduce PLM system into enterprises and carry out implementation, customization, integration, training and other work, they provide important support and guarantee for the effective application of PLM system in enterprises and realize the value of play.
The downstream of the industry is widely used in various industries and fields, mainly including manufacturing, automotive industry, aerospace, medical equipment, consumer electronics, energy and environmental protection, and industrial manufacturing.
Product lifecycle management is an important means for enterprises to enhance competitiveness, reduce costs, and optimize resource utilization, and now more and more enterprises are beginning to adopt an open cooperation model to promote the development of PLM technology and applications with partners inside and outside the industry. Foreign PLM software manufacturers include Dassault, Siemens, and PTC, which monopolize the high-end market, expand product lines, explore new areas through mergers and acquisitions, and occupy a dominant position in the market in the fields of CAD/CAE/CAM/CAPP/PLM/MOM/SLM. The main domestic PLM enterprises are mainly concentrated in Beijing, Guangdong, Shandong and other places, mainly including Suowei System, Sipu, Yonyou, Huatian, Kingdee and Bronze, etc., Sipu, Tianyu, Kaimu, CAXA and Yonyou are mainly concentrated in the field of cPDM, focusing on engineering data management and product design, process planning, but the business coverage of the whole life cycle of products is not comprehensive. Due to the relatively low overall technical barriers of the product life cycle management industry, the overall localization rate is high.
The research team of Zhiyan Consulting conducts in-depth analysis on the scale, industrial structure, key enterprises, and industrial development trends of China's PLM industry, and puts forward suggestions for the problems existing in the development of the PLM industry, providing reference for local governments, industrial chain related enterprises, and investment institutions.
