Oracle and Satyam Computers to Co-Develop Business Process Integration for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)
Oracle and Satyam Computer Services, Ltd announced a co-development agreement to build Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA) Process Integration Packs for Enterprise Product Lifecycle Management (PLM).
Satyam will collaborate with Oracle's application development teams to create an enterprise PLM integration solution between Oracle’s Agile PLM and Oracle E-Business Suite solutions.
The PLM Process Integration Pack will enable rapid implementation of Oracle’s next generation integrated enterprise PLM processes and will help customers in reduce the cost and risk associated with typical third-party and custom integrations.
Since the launch of the Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA), Oracle continues to see strong AIA momentum across its partner ecosystem, with major Systems Integrator (SI) partners, such as Satyam, making significant investments in strategic co-development efforts.
With Oracle AIA, SIs are able to build their own integration solutions using the AIA Foundation to promote a consistent and Service-Oriented Architecture based approach to business process integration across Oracle and third-party applications. This enables them to generate additional business and technical consulting revenue through integration; obtain technical strength and insight for Oracle AIA through training, development participation and validation programs; and increase revenue opportunities with differentiated, low cost, fast pace and sustainable service offerings.
Industry's First Open Standards-Based Process Integration Pack for Enterprise PLM
The Oracle and Satyam pre-built Process Integration Pack will include core capabilities that support the new product introduction processes within Oracle Agile PLM and Oracle E-Business Suite.
Core functionality of the Process Integration Pack will include:
* Manufacturing Release of new product definition and product launch
* Change Management of previously launched products
* Bi-directional synchronization of Engineering Change status and material attribute information, from Manufacturing to PLM
* Tracking and monitoring of the change processing queue
* A robust error-handling and notification framework
