Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Dec 20, 2002

The bom.com partner programme is designed to help customers maximise the value they receive from their PLM investments through strategic alliances between bom.com and industry-leading organisations.

The bom.com partner programme is designed to help customers maximise the value they receive from their PLM investments through strategic alliances between bom.com and industry-leading organisations.

bom.com has launched the programme along with new partnerships with ASP.com, Cadence Design Systems, Digi-Key, eFunda, Engineering.com, Thomas Register and Truste.

These new alliances, in addition to existing strategic relationships with IDEO, QAD and SolidWorks, help bom.com unify the design and manufacturing supply chain for its customers.

Partner companies participate in the programme in a range of capacities - from linking their solutions with the bom.com application to providing strategic input into the bom.com PLM platform.

When customers use the standards-based, web-native bom.com application to manage the complex relationships that define their products, they gain access to a PLM system that can integrate seamlessly with mechanical computer-aided design (MCAD), electronic design automation (EDA) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) tools.

Other types of partnerships ensure that customers benefit from a secure, reliable foundation for the application; easy, timely access to part and supplier information from within the bom.com application; and use of a PLM solution designed with strategic input from design and manufacturing leaders.

bom.com partners in the programme benefit from activities like joint sales and marketing programmes, early access to new versions of the bom.com application, increased awareness among the bom.com customer base, dedicated technical support and strategic consulting on combining their solutions with the bom.com PLM product.

Those wishing to learn more about the bom.com partner programme or obtain information on how to become a bom.com partner should visit the bom.com website.

"As the primary system of record for product data, a PLM application is uniquely positioned not only to manage information that previously had to be handled manually, but also to comprehend related data from disparate systems like MCAD, EDA and ERP tools", said Michael Topolovac, CEO of bom.com.

"bom.com goes one step further with its web-native architecture, which facilitates standards-based information exchange across these systems.

bom.com customers gain not only a centralised view of their product information, but also access to an online PLM system that will continue to scale to meet their needs.

Partnerships are a critical piece of this ongoing evolution, and we're pleased to have so many well-respected organisations helping us offer a more complete PLM solution.

We welcome them all as bom.com partners".
