AUSTIN, Texas – June 3, 2021– BigLever Software, the long-standing leader in Product Line Engineering (PLE), announced today that Dr. Paul Clements, VP of Customer Success of BigLever, will present “Key Issues of Organizational Structure and Processes with Feature-based Product Line Engineering and ISO/IEC 26580” at Method Park Process Insights, taking place virtually from June 8-10, 2021. During the session, he will discuss the significance of the recent ISO 26580 standard for PLE, and how organizations can structure their roles, methodology and processes to optimize the value that PLE provides.

“The ISO 26580 standard ushers in a new era for widespread Feature-based PLE adoption by providing engineering organizations the confidence to embrace this new paradigm that now has the international credibility, validation and backing of organizations like INCOSE and ISO,“ said Dr. Charles Krueger, CEO of BigLever. “Feature-based PLE is a means to dramatically eliminate low-value engineering effort across a system family, so engineers can focus their time and effort on high-value innovative work that advances product and business objectives, often leading to significant competitive advantage.”

Engineering organizations switching from traditional systems engineering methods to Feature-based PLE can greatly reduce their overhead, lower defect density, increase productivity and provide greater scalability. ISO 26580 provides clear industry-validated guidance that lowers the risk of adoption, enabling more engineering organizations to confidently make Feature-based PLE a critical part of their success.

During the event, BigLever also will be virtually showcasing its Feature-based PLE solution. The virtual showcase will be open from:

  • 2:00 – 2:30 p.m., 4:45 – 5:00 p.m. EDT, June 8
  • 10:00 – 10:30 a.m., 12:45 – 1:00 p.m. EDT, June 9
  • 1:45 – 3:00 a.m., 5:30 – 6:00 a.m. EDT, June 10 (to accommodate Asian countries)
