Acting as a “best-practice engine,” each Segment Hub drives innovation and continuous improvement by developing and scaling cutting-edge best practices and partnering closely with PTC’s product segments to align go-to-market strategies with real-world customer needs. These Hubs have a cross-functional makeup (combining Solutions Consulting, Professional Services, and Customer Success Management roles) and split their focus between strategic initiatives and hands-on field work – driving development of playbooks, methodologies, and training on one side, while on the other engaging directly with field teams as subject-matter experts to support key sales opportunities, implementations, and adoption programs. They also serve as the voice of the field, feeding insights from customer engagements back into PTC’s product and service roadmaps to drive continuous improvement. Within this framework, the PLM Segment Hub – focused on PTC’s Product Lifecycle Management domain – leads the charge in championing PLM best practices globally. It equips our field teams and partners with the tools, knowledge, and mentorship needed to deliver world-class PLM outcomes, and it engages directly on high-impact customer projects to ensure value realization and success in every PLM deployment.
