Abstract

Starting from the observation of an implementation project of a Product data management tool (PLM) in a context of large scientific collaborations, this paper focuses on the organisational process leading to the design process modelling and the capture of users’ needs. Using a qualitative case study method, this descriptive study shoes the complexity in action, and claims that this complexity is an additional key success factor, as long as the technical manager, a central character of the projects, is taking into account the recursive loops of relationships between the various stakeholders.

Keywords: design process modelling, project management, complexity, product lifecycle management
