PDM systems are document management systems on steroids -- they have additional functionality specific to managing product engineering information -- including mechanical and electronic hardware designs, embedded software, and complex documents -- throughout the entire product lifecycle -- from bid to design, from planning to manufacture, from manufacture to delivery, and through support and upgrade.

Check out sherpa.com for an example.

Are they competitive with DM systems? To some degree. But more like general purpose DM systems are invading PDM turf rather than the other way around.
