Leader in Collaborative Product Lifecycle Management (CPLM) solutions for the consumer products industry Zweave, Inc, has completed the development of its CPLM Solution under its Phase II SBIR contract from NAVSUP (Navy Supply Systems Command) for the U.S Navy Clothing and Textile Research Facility (NCTRF).

Under the SBIR program guidelines Zweave retains rights to all solutions built for the Depar ent of Defense and is tasked to commercialize its solutions within both Federal and Commercial markets.
'CPLM supports collaboration and data management throughout the development lifecycle of products built to be worn or used by people', announced Laura McCann, Director of PLM Consulting Services and Product Development.
