Abstract
The Product Life Cycle Support (PLCS) [1] initiative is beginning to move from the conceptual phase to implementation. PLCS is part of the ISO 10303, which is the Standard for Exchange of Product Data. It has recently become an International Standard. The Standard covers a wide range of product design through to in-support activities. An effort to drive the standard forward through a practical implementation is reported here.
