In Stay Sharp Episode 151, The Untold Origins of PLM with Doug Macdonald, co-hosts Juliann Grant and Jonathan Scott are joined by Doug Macdonald, a self-described innovation enthusiast and recovering PLM advocate. What’s particularly relevant for this episode is that, as Juliann notes, he’s “been here since the beginning,” graduating as a mechanical engineer just as CAD/CAM were entering the mainstream. He gives listeners an insider’s perspective on how PLM came to be and what it looks like today.
