UGS has released a new version of Teamcenter for MRO, the set of maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities within the UGS Teamcenter solution, the world's most widely used PLM software portfolio.

Teamcenter for MRO provides a rich set of core functionality enabling management of product and process data applicable to commercial or military MRO operations and provides a proven framework for logistics data management.

Teamcenter for MRO is designed to significantly reduce maintenance cycle time and costs associated with servicing complex products that require a significant capital investment, such as aircraft, weapon systems, ships and power plants.

By instantly providing up-to-date configuration and life status information for maintenance planning and at the point-of-service, along with detailed and accurate maintenance knowledge, Teamcenter for MRO can lower costs and improve maintenance productivity in industries supporting operational life of capital assets.

Teamcenter for MRO provides all the necessary foundation capabilities required to establish a truly integrated environment for service operations.

Capabilities include workflow, collaboration, complex document management, change control, records retention management, role based security and full International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR) support for multinational operations.

This integrated foundation simplifies implementation and deployment.

"Teamcenter for MRO delivers leading capabilities for support of products after they have entered the operational phase of their lifecycle".

"The solutions allow for reduced costs and cycle times on service and repair operations", said Chuck Grindstaff, Executive Vice President of PLM Products, UGS.

"UGS is now providing logistics and maintenance organisations with the proven capabilities of the world's leading PLM technology platform".

With the Teamcenter 2005 release, Teamcenter for MRO significantly extends its ability to enable customers to manage their products' configurations or bills of material (BOMs), providing functionality and processes to manage a variety of BOMs.

Additionally, Teamcenter for MRO provides for the definition and management of life characteristics for assets and components permitting accurate knowledge of remaining life to support maintenance planning requirements including running counters, calculated values and flow down values.

This integrated level of accuracy and the associated processes greatly increases productivity while simplifying the MRO process.
