Today, the purpose of many PLM implementation projects is the realization of PLM-Architectures which aim on product data integration over the dimensions domain, business unit and product line along the Product Development Process. Currently, these projects are mostly addressed like IT-Projects for implementation of domain specific products (e.g. CAx, PDM- or ERP-Systems). Hence the implementation focuses on functional aspects. This focus usually lacks consideration of semantic and progression conception which are key aspects for PLM implementation. To improve this situation the Do(PLM)Con methodology was developed. It provides methods for abstract design of integrated PLM-Architectures including semantics and progression. The following paper will explain the terms semantics and progression in PLM and describe the Do(PLM)Con method as an instrument for systematic design of integrated PLM-Architectures.
