In contrast to [[Product Lifecycle Management|PLM]] systems, PDES typically address the collaboration and innovation challenges with a bottom-up approach. They start-out with the details of manufacturing technologies (like [[Product_lifecycle_management#Product_and_process_lifecycle_management_.28PPLM.29|PPLM]]), a single manufacturing step with all its physical aware parameterization and integrating steps into sequences, into devices, into systems, etc.

Other rather similar software categories are [[LIMSLaboratory information management system|laboratory information management systems]] (LIMS) and [[laboratory information system]] (LIS). PDESs offer a wider set of functionalities e.g. virtual manufacturing techniques, while they are typically not integrated with the equipment in the laboratory.

PDESs have many parts and can be deployed on various scales – from simple [[Work in Progress]] tracking, to a complex solution integrated throughout an enterprise development infrastructure. The latter connects with other enterprise systems like [[Enterprise resource planning|enterprise resource and planning system]]s (ERPs), manufacturing execution systems (MESs), [[product lifecycle management]] (PLM), [[SCADA|supervisory, control and data acquisition]] (SCADA) solutions and [[Automated planning and scheduling|scheduling and planning system]]s (both long-term and short-term tactical).
