Story
Utilities work at American Electric Power spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Product lifecycle data was splitting across regional habits. Engineering and quality asked for a shared way to run change control without freezing local judgment.
Synopsys (Ansys integration) is what they standardized on. Synopsys provides electronic design automation and software integrity tools used by semiconductor and software engineering teams. American Electric Power uses it as the system of record for product lifecycle data, with engineering and quality as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
