Explaining the decisive differences between the traditional implementation methods "RVP" and "VRD".

What is the method suitable for your PLM implementation: "RVP," which meets all customer requests, or "VRD," which enables short-term implementation?

PTC Japan offers two types of Windchill implementation support services: the "RVP (Realized Value Platform)" approach and the "VRD (Value Ready Deployment)" approach, which differ significantly in their methodologies. The RVP approach is a traditional method that conducts a Fit & Gap analysis based on the customer's business requirements, filling gaps that cannot be met by standard functions with add-ons (customizations). This method has the advantage of being able to implement without changing existing business processes; however, it takes time for requirement definition and add-on development, resulting in a longer implementation period. On the other hand, the VRD approach is based on aligning business processes with PTC's best practices and utilizes predefined storyboards and configurations, allowing for a quicker implementation. *For detailed comparisons of the differences between RVP and VRD, such as implementation period and customization flexibility, please refer to the downloadable materials.*
