Arena Solutions, the pioneer of cloud-based product lifecycle management (PLM) applications, today announced that it has partnered with Triniti, the leading global Oracle E-Business Suite consulting and solutions firm pioneering in Application Data Management, to release an integration between Arena PLM and Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS). With this adapter, new and changed product data are automatically transferred from Arena PLM to Oracle EBS, enabling customers to plan more accurately and greatly reduce time to market.
This Arena-Oracle Adapter automates the process of transferring changed product data from Arena to Oracle ERP, avoiding manual entry errors and ensuring that Oracle ERP is up-to-date. When a product is released from Arena, the Adapter is configured to capture the data automatically without the need for user intervention, eliminating any lag in data synchronization between Arena and Oracle. Based on business requirements, the adapter can be configured to create and change the product data at right places in EBS with right attributes.
“With this adapter, product companies can reduce manual data transfer from the BOM to Oracle, improving accuracy and speeding time to market,” said Steve Chalgren, Executive Vice President of Product Management and Chief Strategy Officer at Arena. “As a result, engineers can spend more time developing new products and far less inputting data into the ERP.”
Customers can also enable Oracle’s workflow technology to send notifications to different teams, such as product planners and cost managers, to capture planning, costing and other ERP specific data for the items released from Arena.
“At Triniti, we specialize in integrating strategic business applications with Oracle, providing business value with end-to-end solutions tailored to meet your business goals and flexible to adapt to its changing aspects,” said Srinath Alamela, CEO at Triniti. “The Arena-Oracle Adapter addresses a growing need that we identified in the market as large enterprise customers already using Oracle ERP increasingly turn to Arena PLM’s cloud-based offering to manage their BOM.”
