Story
Materials work at Southern Copper 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.
Siemens Digital Industries Software (NX) is what they standardized on. Siemens Digital Industries Software offers PLM, CAD, simulation, and low-code tools that connect product design to the factory. Southern Copper 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 The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
