Codex of PLM Openness is Gaining Industrial Relevance
Nearly one month after its publication the amount of companies supporting ProSTEP iViP’s Codex of PLM Openness (CPO) raised to 15. Until today the following companies signed the CPO: Aras, Atos, BMW, Daimler, Dassault Systèmes, EDAG, Inforbix, Oracle, PROSTEP, PTC, Robert Bosch, Siemens PLM Software, SpaceClaim, T-Systems and Volkswagen.
The CPO provides a common basic understanding on the subject of openness of IT-systems in the context of PLM. It provides measurable criteria, allowing every IT customer and IT provider in the market a clear positioning with regards to “PLM Openness“. The CPO is a voluntary self-commitment for industrial and IT companies, aiming at implementing or offering highly integrative solutions for seamless data processes in PLM.
The international participation and the growing interest within branches like automotive and aerospace underline that the initiative is a clear signal and invitation to all players in the market to participate.
Thus, with great interest the first ProSTEP iViP CPO Community Conference is anticipated. This conference will take place on June 20th, 2012 in Darmstadt, Germany. All interested people are invited to participate.
More information on the CPO, becoming partner as well as the up-to-date list of partners can be found at http://www.prostep.org/en/cpo.html
