Motorola iDEN Mobile Devices chose the PTC PDS because it provides their worldwide R and D sites and suppliers with access to real-time product information.

The iDEN Mobile Devices Division of Motorola has expanded the implementation of the PTC Product Development System (PDS) to support its global product development initiatives The PTC PDS helps increase the productivity of Motorola employees through more efficient project management, collaboration and control of design data across its worldwide sites

Motorola has implemented PTC Pro/Engineer for CAD/CAM/CAE design and in 2005 implemented PTC Windchill for collaborative global product development in the iDEN Mobile Devices Business unit.

Motorola iDEN Mobile Devices chose the PTC PDS because it provides their worldwide R and D sites and suppliers with access to real-time product information in order to easily re-use existing product data in new development projects.

Additionally, the PDS allows for design changes to be communicated immediately across designers, suppliers and OEMs and reduces mistakes caused by users working from old data.

The PDS has enabled Motorola to improve its product development efficiencies, accelerate new product introductions and reduce costly tooling redesign cycles times from two weeks to two days.

"Continual product innovation is critical in this dynamic market", said Julio Castaneda, Director of Engineering, Motorola iDEN Mobile Devices.

"The integral architecture of the PTC Product Development System enables Motorola to focus on technology and product innovation, which gives us the flexibility to quickly respond to market demands".

"We look forward to continuing our work with PTC".
