What is the purpose of the OASIS PLCS Technical Committee?
The OASIS PLCS TC works to establish structured data exchange and sharing capabilities for use by industry to support complex assets throughout their complete life cycle, i.e., from concept to disposal. These data exchange and sharing capabilities are based on the new extension to ISO 10303, STandard for the Exchange of Product model data (STEP), developed under the framework of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The new standard is known as ISO 10303, Application Protocol (AP) 239 Product Lifecycle Support (PLCS). The OASIS Technical Committee will continue the work of PLCS Inc., a consortium of government and industry organizations established in 1999 to specify and develop an international standard for information exchange and sharing related to the life cycle support of complex products and systems.
