Chris Yeats-Edwards, Customer Analytics Manager
My background in management accounting has given me the opportunity to find customer efficiencies in operations through analysis, insights, modeling and reports. As a key member of the Personalized Customer Solutions Team (PCS), I interact with both the sales team and the customer through conference calls and site visits to integrate PLM's solutions into their processes and save them time and money. We can run their fleet against benchmark data to identify competencies and improve inefficiencies as in the case study below.
