Implementation Investments
AESSEAL Bestow Majenta PLM with Multi-site Teamcenter Contract
Majenta PLM has been awarded a contract by world leading mechanical seals specialist AESSEAL to provide and implement multi-site licences of Siemens Teamcenter product lifecycle management (PLM) software solution.
The initial implementation includes a number of Teamcenter Author licences, Teamcenter Visualisation and integration with Siemens’ Solid Edge and NX CAD/CAM software solutions. Teamcenter will be used to manage AESSEAL’s new product introduction process in the UK, while a second phase will see this capability extended to other AESSEAL sites, initially in the UK and India. Ultimately Teamcenter will be used to manage all product-related information across all AESSEAL sites around the world, including the USA, South Africa, Germany and Brazil.
“While the company already has a system to manage product information, we realised that, as a global business, what we need is a comprehensive product lifecycle management system that will support global product development business processes”, said Stuart Welsh, head of IT, AESSEAL. “Teamcenter will provide that capability, enabling us to consolidate and to integrate product knowledge and business processes within a unified IT environment that is accessible to all, no matter where they are physically located within the AESSEAL community.”
Among the benefits that AESSEAL expects to gain from the implementation of Teamcenter, are reduced product development timescales and improved cost control through better and easier access to up-to-date product information and through streamlined product development business processes.
