Zero Wait-State to Showcase Enterprise PDM Solutions at SolidWorks World 2012
Zero Wait-State announced that they will debut RAPIDaccess and RAPIDconnect, plug-in applications for SolidWorks Enterprise PDM, at SolidWorks World 2012 on February 12-15, 2012 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California. Located in booth #137, Zero Wait-State will also be drawing winners from their Linkedin group, Engineering Collaboration for PLM, on February 15th to determine the winner of an Apple iPad 2 or Esmes Big Daddy rocket kit.
RAPIDaccess offers members of the purchasing department and others outside the engineering department ATM-like access to released drawings from a secure engineering vault. Project and program managers can also RAPIDaccess to create project reports based on the status of the engineering drawings.
RAPIDconnect allows the Agile enterprise PLM system to receive mechanical items from the SolidWorks CAD authoring tool directly through the SolidWorks Enterprise PDM interface. Featuring secure and simple access, RAPIDconnect enables Agile users to receive immediate time savings and increased data quality though its streamlined approach to design assets within the Agile environment.
“With RAPIDaccess, no one has to bother the engineers to receive drawing status information or PDFs of the released drawings. With RAPIDconnect, Agile users receive data from the source in Enterprise PDM, but in Agile item format. In both cases, everyone wins.” – Steve Ammann, Director of New Business Development at ZWS.
“I am pleased our services partner Zero Wait-State has made an additional offering to Enterprise PDM customers. EPDM is rapidly gaining market share and products like RAPIDconnect and RAPIDaccess will only enhance and accelerate the growth of EPDM” – Richard Allen, Senior Manager of PDM Product Management at Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corporation.
RAPIDconnect and RAPIDaccess are both available through selective SolidWorks resellers or at the Zero Wait-State zStore for download. 30-day trial versions will soon be made available as well.
