October 19 2005 - 7:30AM
Business Wire
MatrixOne, Inc. (NASDAQ: MONEE), a leading provider of
collaborative product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions for the
value chain(TM) and The vdR Group, Inc., announce that they have
received certification by Autodesk(R) for an integration between
Autodesk Inventor(R) and the MatrixOne(R) PLM platform as part of a
newly released MatrixOne application called MatrixOne Designer
Central(TM). The integration was developed for MatrixOne by the vdR
Group, a long time MatrixOne certified development partner.
Autodesk Inventor is the world's best selling 3D mechanical design
software. Autodesk Inventor certified products ensure that the
highest level of interoperability exists--and that the integration
is based on the Autodesk Inventor API (application programming
interface) standards. Certified applications have met the
guidelines and testing criteria established by Autodesk and further
demonstrate high-quality and up-to-date compatibility. MatrixOne
Designer Central is a comprehensive design data management
application that allows a company's product designers to
collaborate with each other and with their suppliers in a single
system--regardless of the design tools being used by each partner.
Designer Central allows users to create workspaces for simple ad
hoc collaboration between project team members. Through its unique
and open architecture, the new MatrixOne Designer Central
application can be deployed and supported from a central location,
while the design files can be securely distributed and synchronized
around the world for optimal performance. "Getting our partners,
such as the vdR Group, to have their integrations certified with
Autodesk Inventor is ultimately great news for our customers," said
Richard Runnells, senior manager, Partner Programs at Autodesk.
"Users can be assured that the same standards of product quality we
want for Autodesk Inventor are being extended to the integration
with the MatrixOne PLM suite of solutions." "Achieving Autodesk
certification is always rewarding for our team," said Martin van
der Roest, president of the vdR Group. "As long time partners of
both Autodesk and MatrixOne, we strive for the highest quality
possible in the products we build for MatrixOne, so that our mutual
customers can focus on their work and not be concerned about things
falling through the cracks between these various applications."
With MatrixOne Designer Central and the Autodesk Inventor
integration, users can: -- Visually collaborate around the design
information or other information related to the design; -- Schedule
meetings for review at any step in the development process; --
Securely provide design information to suppliers and customers; --
Create private and public workspaces for organizing and sharing
designs; -- Manage local workspaces in the context of the PLM
system; -- Upload complex, multi-tiered, design hierarchies into
MatrixOne; -- Recursively check out complex, multi-tiered designs
into Autodesk Inventor or onto disk; -- Apply full revision and
version control to all Autodesk Inventor models; and -- Alert users
with design change notifications to their current work. "With the
MatrixOne - Autodesk Inventor integration to Designer Central, our
customers can get the design right the first time--by allowing
early visibility and feedback to everyone involved in the design
and overall product development processes," said Mark Bierschied,
director of Integrated eBusiness Solutions for MatrixOne. "By
providing real-time access to product designs, we expect that
companies will be able to enhance collaboration across the value
chain, speeding time to market and cutting development costs." The
MatrixOne Autodesk Inventor integration is immediately available
