Upgrade takes product lifecycle management further
Dassault Systemes and IBM are releasing Version 5 Release 13 (V5R13) of their product lifecycle management (PLM) portfolio, comprising Catia, Enovia and Smarteam.
By leveraging the OPSEC Framework, SmarTeam has access to OPSEC APIs which enable seamless integration of SmarTeam solutions with Check Point's market-leading VPN-1/FireWall-1 Internet security solutions - an integral part of its Secure Virtual Network (SVN) architecture.
Check Point's SVN architecture provides the infrastructure that enables secure and reliable Internet communications between networks, systems, applications, and users across the Internet, Intranets and Extranets.
Avichay Nissenbaum, SmarTeam's executive vice president of product marketing said: "With product information exchange rapidly moving to the Internet, we need to provide SmarTeam customers with the ability to collaborate quickly and transparently, regardless of physical location.
Our alliance with Check Point demonstrates our commitment to provide organisations with the ability to securely access remote applications and sensitive product data using robust, easily managed solutions." SmarTeam's Workgroup, Enterprise and e-Supply Chain solutions empower product teams to collaborate throughout the product lifecycle, across the extended enterprise and supply chain.
Web-based collaboration between OEMs and suppliers, outsourcing partners and customers is a necessity in today's competitive climate.
In a typical product lifecycle for example, most companies outsource their manufacturing parts to external suppliers to achieve optimised products.
SmarTeam solutions allow businesses to shorten time-to-market by enhancing their working relations with their partners in a secured manner, while maintaining on-line communication with them.
Businesses can now collaborate on product related data, availability of parts, changes in catalog, quotes, etc., and incorporate external parties into the company's change management (workflow) processes, while controlling and tracking their changes and updates.
