Partners for the Advancement of Collaborative Engineering Education (PACE)
Partners for the Advancement of Collaborative Engineering Education (PACE) links GM, Autodesk, HP, Oracle, Siemens PLM Software, and their global operations, to support strategically selected academic institutions worldwide to develop the automotive product lifecycle management (PLM) team of the future. PLM, as it relates to PACE, is an integrated, parametrics-based approach to all aspects of a product's life-from its design inception, through manufacturing, marketing, distribution and maintenance, and finally into recycling and disposal.
