Resource Group Joins Siemens Solution Partner Program as a Value-added Reseller

Resource Group has joined the Siemens Solution Partner Program as a value-added reseller for Siemens PLM Software. As a result of this agreement, Resource Group will establish itself as a leading UK business in the supply and installation of Siemens PLM Software’s suite of product lifecycle management (PLM) software. In addition to the software, Resource Group will offer additional support services including implementation, integration with customer’s enterprise applications, product maintenance and frontline customer support.

As a focused provider of engineering support to the Aerospace and Aviation markets Resource Group is superbly positioned to partner with Siemens PLM Software on specific industry-related products such as Teamcenter® software for maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) by utilising existing core skills and facilities for MRO training. Resource Group will work in partnership with Siemens PLM Software to deliver Teamcenter for MRO to the European Airline MRO market.

“2011 is going to be an exciting year for Resource Group,” said John Larkin, Managing Director of Resource Group comments. “There is increased recognition in the value of PLM in improving companies and the UK Aerospace supply chain is an excellent focus for Resource Group’s PLM services. The nature of the industry requires large amounts of data managed globally across multiple suppliers within different tiers of the supply chain. This includes design data, manufacturing data, bill of materials, quality documentation, supplier information, the list is endless. Teamcenter provides a single source of data and knowledge that connects all teams and individuals in the work place at all times and we can see this being invaluable to the global aerospace supply base. We are confident that this partnership will benefit our existing customers and provide synergies with our engineering divisions.”

“This agreement with Resource Group adds further value to our portfolio of products and services, and ensures that customers will receive efficient delivery they have come to expect from Siemens PLM Software,” said Martin Hasenstrauch, channel marketing manager Northern Europe, Siemens PLM Software. “Resource Group’s experience in a niche sector will prove very valuable to us in improving our skill set and overall capabilities. The Resource Group’s long heritage in the aviation industry ensures we can increase our market knowledge, in turn aiding our expansion in this market sector.”

Resource Group will offer the full range of software including Siemens PLM Software’s Teamcenter software, NX™ software, a comprehensive digital product development solution; and Solid Edge® software for computer-aided design (CAD), part of the Velocity Series™ portfolio for the mainstream PLM market.

Resource Group will be launching PLM services in early 2011 and will be looking to add to the existing PLM team based at Worcester to support this activity.
