BigLever Software, the long-standing leader in Product Line Engineering (PLE), announced today that its CEO, Dr. Charles Krueger, and Dr. Paul Clements, its VP Customer Success, will be presenting papers as well as hosting a workshop at the semi-annual INCOSE North Central & Great Lakes Regional Conference (NC-GLRC), taking place virtually from April 9-17, 2021. Krueger and Clements will share their insights on PLE’s growing role in systems engineering and digital engineering.

“Increasing product diversity and sophistication creates challenges for companies dealing with product family variations across engineering and operational lifecycles. Feature-based PLE addresses these challenges by providing a single authoritative source of truth for managing these variations,” said Krueger. “Feature-based PLE optimizes the productivity, precision, effectiveness and efficiency of a company’s resources, enabling it to reduce the risks associated with older, conventional engineering approaches.”

BigLever will be virtually showcasing its Feature-based PLE solution across the full lifecycle. The virtual showcase will be open for chat on Friday, April 9; Monday, April 12; Friday, April 16; and Saturday, April 17, from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. EDT.
