TraceParts Releases New Version of its Supplier Parts Management system

TraceParts has now released Service Pack 2 of its Supplier Parts Management Software TraceParts Enterprise. Major improvements in usability and performance for design departments have been added to this release.

Six months after the official launch of TraceParts Enterprise, the software is now available in version 2014 SP2. The feedback, given by hundreds of Try & Buy users who have tested TraceParts Enterprise for 30 days, had a huge influence on the definition of this release.

“In the past six months our Try & Buy program has evolved extremely good. While we initially focused on German and French speaking countries, we’re now receiving trial requests from all over the world. This proves that preventing part duplicates is a global issue which affects everybody in the design world”, explains Alfred Schallert, Global Product Manager TraceParts Enterprise.

The main purpose of TraceParts Enterprise is to prevent duplicate purchased parts. This is done with advanced content management functions, which allows an administrator to control the standard and supplier parts which are supposed to be used by the designers. For additionally needed parts, the designers can use the seamlessly integrated Request Management module.

“All the positive feedback we received from our Try & Buy users shows that an efficient management of standard and supplier parts before the CAD download itself, has a stronger effect on cost savings than many other solutions on the market” adds Alfred Schallert.

For the 2015 release, which is planned for December, TraceParts has many exciting new features on its roadmap, focusing on Status Management for part numbers and Subscription Management for external sub-contractors.
