Change is definitely persistent in my world.
Activity for DS in the Construction (AEC) is taking off, you may have seen and heard about some of the initial elements – if not, see here (Live Buildings). Though my role with our AEC team was just begining, I’ve been asked and accepted to perform a similar role helping DS develop online business & communities with a focus in the High-Tech (HT) industry.
One of the things I really like about my new role is getting back in front of our customers. Following some recent High-Tech customer meetings, I have heard some recurring business objectives mentioned:
- Increase efficiency with Real-time, Online collaboration,
- Increase quality via a common online platform integrating multiple partners and suppliers, and in such a highly competitive market,
- Security and traceability on all product development activity.
- Need to better connect with the targeted consumer early and throughout the process to try to ensure product success when released (consider that today about 52% of all products released to market fail – based on an AMR Research market study).
It is amazing to me to see how customers in HT are working with us to develop new tools and methods to push innovation and productivity further.

In my High-Tech community role, I’m seeking to learn more about you, more about innovative ways online that we at DS may help you to achieve your goals.
I’d love to hear from you either online or offine, with ideas or things you dream about to do business more efficiently, or differently. Don’t be shy, please share any comments or ideas below!
