Arena’s On-Demand PLM solution is ideal for the complex customer and supply chain challenges that contract manufacturers face every day.
From NPI processes with frequent BOM and engineering change orders, to transitioning to high-volume production at low-cost manufacturing centers, Arena PLM handles the entire process and communications with “iron-clad” product documentation and revision control.
Arena’s contract manufacturer customers not only enjoy all the benefits of using Arena PLM—they can also become an Arena Partner.

Contract manufacturers with a network of small-to-mid sized OEM customers can earn revenue or receive substantially discounted Arena pricing for connecting Arena with OEM customers that could benefit from Arena’s PLM solution.
Arena is dedicated to enriching the interaction between OEMs and their contract manufacturing supply chain partners. We empower our customers and contract manufacturer partners to work together to bring better products to market faster than ever before.
