International TechneGroup, Inc. (ITI) is pleased to announce the acquisition of Glacier Technologies, LLC. With a vendor neutral approach to helping customers achieve value from their engineering, manufacturing, and quality systems, Glacier aligns well with ITI’s business strategy. “Glacier’s consulting approach is ideal for enabling ITI to better understand how and where we can offer more value through our PLM integrations. This acquisition rounds out ITI’s PLM integration business, which encompasses; vendor/OEM integration development, end-user integration implementation, legacy PDM/PLM data migration consulting, and now business integration consulting,” commented Tom Makoski, Executive Vice President. As products become more complex, supply chains become more integrated and distribution becomes more global. Companies are integrating more and more systems into their overall business process. “Our business focus is to help customers maximize their technology investment, via effective system integration strategies. Joining the leader in engineering interoperability solutions at this time makes sense for Glacier.

Razorleaf Corporation today announces Clover, its open integration platform, is releasing ERP connectors for SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional to SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle, MAPICS/Infor and other ERP systems.  Clover will enable the passing of business and product data such as customer and supplier information, items and bills of materials, and change documents to improve productivity and enable agility through sharing accurate information.  Clover goes beyond typical middleware and ensures that contextual business processes are aligned for passing data to improve process efficiency and data integrity. "Our customers find their biggest productivity gains come from connecting business processes between ERP and Product Data Management or PLM.  Core processes like Order Management need to flow across an organization, intersecting business systems with varying data structures.  Sales, marketing, engineering, and manufacturing all need to have the most current information, and without process-led integration strategies, many organizations are using inaccurate data up and down the organization,"

COMSOL has announced support for app development in the latest version of LiveLink™ for SOLIDWORKS®. Part of COMSOL Multiphysics® software, the only fully integrated environment for creating custom simulation applications, LiveLink™ for SOLIDWORKS® connects COMSOL® software simulations and 3D design and its latest version allows users to build apps with the Application Builder. This provides design engineers with a better understanding of how SOLIDWORKS® software designs perform in the intended operating environment by delivering an accurate evaluation of the impact of any physical effects and their interactions. With LiveLink™ for SOLIDWORKS® and the Application Builder, engineers can build apps based on COMSOL® models created from a SOLIDWORKS® software geometry. LiveLink™ for SOLIDWORKS® allows them to import and perform operations on their CAD geometries from within an app and then synchronize the final geometry with SOLIDWORKS® software. LiveLink™ for SOLIDWORKS® includes a bidirectional interface between the COMSOL Desktop® environment and SOLIDWORKS® software.

Lectra has announced that France-based fashion firm, The Kooples, has chosen the expert version of Modaris, Lectra's patternmaking, grading and prototyping solution, to support them in their expansion.

Gerber Technology announces that Chasing Fireflies®, a leading children's and family lifestyle brand, has deployed the cloud-based version of YuniquePLM™. Chasing Fireflies offers clothing, costumes, toys, artwork and other items through its direct-to-consumer catalog and online business. Chasing Fireflies has been using YuniquePLM to manage product development and information for the creation of its proprietary children's costumes and apparel. Previously, Excel was used to manage styles, and spreadsheets were conveyed to manufacturing partners for sample and final production. With YuniquePLM, techpacks are sent to the manufacturer with everything they need to know, through the simple press of a button. YuniquePLM was selected for its ability to maintain consistent data integrity throughout the product management lifecycle; individuals are notified when changes are made, and the entire wealth of specification files can be found in one location. Designers at Chasing Fireflies manage sketches with the YuniquePLM Design Suite, allowing users to create, access and
