PLANO, Texas, March 31, 2008 – Siemens PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation Division and a leading global provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software and services, today announced delivery of the next generation of its Teamcenter® software-based Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) solution. The MRO solution’s Service Data Management module offers significant enhancements including a new Services Dashboard feature to help original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and service providers intelligently manage the distributed service value chain, compliance, and successful execution of Performance Based Logistics (PBL) or Service Level Agreement (SLA) contracts.
“Many of our customers who manage the support and service of significant assets are increasingly required to perform to commitments associated with PBL and SLA contracts,” said Steve Bashada, vice president of Teamcenter Applications, Siemens PLM Software. “Utilizing the new Service Dashboard to quickly mine, analyze and report the pertinent service data captured through Teamcenter’s single source of product and process knowledge, will enable the intelligent management of contract obligations, which should result in increased income and market share for our customers.”
The Teamcenter for MRO solution’s Service Data Management package is tailored to the needs of organizations that support and service complex products requiring a major capital investment, such as aircraft, weapon systems, ships and power plants. Today’s announcement further expands the Service Data Management capabilities in Teamcenter, the industry’s most widely used PLM portfolio. In addition to the new Services Dashboard, there are also several significant enhancements in the areas of asset management and service event management. Together these enhancements support the global service value chain through a single source of service knowledge that is scalable and secure, resulting in a wide variety of customer benefits.
