Oracle Fusion Cloud PLM is a cloud application for managing enterprise product data and lifecycle processes from idea and design through launch and post-launch work. Its core areas are Product Management, Innovation Management, Quality Management, and Configuration Modeling. It manages product records including items, bills of material, documents, requirements, changes, quality workflows, manufacturers, variants, formulas, catalogs, and configuration models. Built-in AI and agentic applications assist with product data, compliance questions, manufacturer onboarding, workflow guidance, component replacement, product comparisons, and design-to-source tasks. Its Design-to-Source workspace can use uploaded CAD designs to create sourcing items and RFQs and assess suppliers; the specific tools and connectors depend on the environment. Oracle says PLM connects lifecycle activity with its SCM, CX, and ERP services, though integration details vary. Access to lifecycle data can be controlled using user, team, permission, object, manufacturer, and other criteria. AI assists with recommendations and generated content; configured workflows, approvals, and change controls still govern decisions. Pricing is on request.
