Perhaps it’s a challenge related to the implementation of Teamcenter. Perhaps it’s a fundamental question regarding your company’s PLM strategy. Or maybe it’s a practical problem that keeps cropping up in day-to-day work with Siemens Designcenter NX but is never properly addressed. It’s precisely for topics like these that we’re once again dedicating time at the DRWE Customer Day 2026: the panel discussion – help shape it actively.
About the panel discussion at the Customer Day accounts for
For years, Dr. Wallner Engineering GmbH’s Customer Day has been a must-attend event for anyone involved with Siemens Designcenter NX, Teamcenter, and PLM in small and medium-sized businesses – whether as a design manager, PLM manager, IT manager, or design engineer. In addition to presentations and hands-on sessions, the panel discussion is one of the formats that focuses on direct exchange between users and experts.
The difference from traditional Q&A sessions: You don’t have to raise your hand spontaneously from the audience. You submit your question in advance; it’s specifically incorporated into the discussion, and you receive a well-reasoned answer that’s also relevant to other participants.
What issues need to be addressed
The scope has been deliberately kept broad. Typical topics from past customer days and current customer discussions include, for example:
- Industry Trends in PLM and CAD/CAM – such as the impact of AI features like Teamcenter Copilot on day-to-day engineering work
- Best Practices – How Other Companies in the Mechanical Engineering, Plant Engineering, and Automotive Industries Organize Their Teamcenter and NX Environments
- Specific Challenges – ranging from process integration (e.g., SAP or Polarion integration) to data migration and issues related to user acceptance
- Strategic Decisions – such as whether to go with the cloud or an on-premises solution, the role of PLM as the organizational backbone, or the implementation of an annual theme in your own roadmap
Whether it's a technical detail or a broader strategic issue, both have a place on the panel.
Why it's worth participating
For companies that already use Siemens DesignCenter NX and Teamcenter but are not yet realizing the full potential of these systems, the panel discussion offers tangible added value:
- Direct access to expert knowledge – without having to schedule a separate consultation
- Insights from the Field – since questions from other participants often reflect similar challenges within one’s own company
- Ideas for Your Own PLM Strategy – that can be implemented immediately after the Customer Day
Precisely because PLM topics can rarely be considered in isolation – but are always linked to design, IT, quality, and manufacturing – participants benefit from the wide range of questions that arise during the discussion – even if their own question wasn’t among them.
