ENOVIA MatrixOne

Product Lifecycle Management is a must for anyone in the manufacturing industry. For every part you design there are over 100 pieces of information generated from it. From assemblies, drawings, datasheets through to the manufacturing, scheduling and accounting information.

The Matrix software, developed by MatrixOne, Inc. is a leading Internet business (eBusiness) collaboration solution for information and knowledge management. With Matrix software, an enterprise can streamline the communications among its geographically dispersed customers, business partners, and internal divisions. Operating as an Internet platform, the Matrix10 solution integrates disparate business processes and facilitates the exchange of all types of information and ideas (e.g. Product Lifecycle Management, conceptual planning, new product design, manufacturability, plant resource utilisation, product introductions, Supply Chain Management).

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is an integrated, information driven approach to all aspects of a product's life from design inception, through it's manufacture, deployment and maintenance - PLM is evolving, to become more collaborative, adaptive, flexible and responsive. In partnership with world-renowned technology providers, system integrators, and business process consultants, MatrixOne supports an impressive list of global clients in a variety of markets, including the automotive, manufacturing, high technology, communications, and aerospace/defence industries.

The Matrix10 Environment includes several very distinct, yet powerful components that work together to enable organisations to leverage the power of their value chains:

Matrix10: The Flexible PLM Environment

Matrix10 is powered by a state-of-the-art PLM platform designed for small and large-scale, local and global deployments. It includes a full suite of proven PLM business process applications that cover a wide range of processes including product planning, product development, product sourcing and program management. Enabling customers to easily configure solutions to meet specific business needs, Matrix10's dynamic and flexible schema and built-in modeling tools enable organisations to quickly configure applications without expensive, time consuming coding.

Accelerator for FDA Compliance

As regulated companies, medical device manufacturers must specifically ensure compliance with evolving FDA Regulations. As technology advances at a rapid pace, managing product development becomes an even greater challenge. The MatrixOne Accelerator for FDA Compliance is a single comprehensive solution that enables medical device manufacturers to achieve FDA compliance throughout their product Lifecycle processes, drastically reduce product development costs and deliver product to market faster than the competition.

To help companies ensure compliance to FDA regulations throughout the entire design and manufacturing process, MatrixOne has introduced the Accelerator for FDA Compliance.

Collaboration Applications

Matrix10's Collaborative Applications represent a collaborative foundation for the enterprise and its network of global value chain partners, regardless of their role in the organisation. These applications allow geographically dispersed project teams to stay connected through access to real-time data and business processes, ensuring the highest levels of quality and innovation are met.

The Matrix10 collaborative applications consist of MatrixOne Team Central™, MatrixOne Document Central™ and MatrixOne Program Central™.

Team Central delivers the right information to the right people at the right time, and reduces the time and cost spent searching for information that is normally resident on user's desktops by enabling teams to work in shared workspaces over the Internet.
Document Central facilitates the management and sharing of documents across global teams in support of collaborative product lifecycle management.
Program Central enables companies to create, share and manage project information globally, ensuring consistent approaches and informed collaborative decisions. MatrixOne Program Central reduces product development time-to-market and costs by synchronizing project team tasks and schedules throughout the value chain.

Lifecycle Applications

Matrix10's Lifecycle Applications represent a broad set of fully interoperable PLM applications for the specialized roles involved in product planning, product development, product sourcing and manufacturing enablement that can be quickly and easily deployed into a wide range of industries.

The MatrixOne lifecycle applications comprise of Sourcing Central™, Product Central™, Specification Central™, Supplier Central™ and Engineering Central™.

Sourcing Central gives users the ability to streamline sourcing activities - improving supplier relationships, reduce cost of goods sold (COGS) and tap into supplier innovation throughout the product lifecycle.
Product Central is a new solution that allows users to easily and precisely define products, features and configuration options based on specific customer and market requirements.
Specification Central, developed as a result of the best practices and industry expertise provided by Procter & Gamble, enables companies to standardize the specification creation processes associated with products, packaging, raw materials and components.
Supplier Central collaborates with suppliers through an information-rich, cost-effective, and partner-centric web-based interface. Bring value chain members into the development and purchasing processes early, for the greatest benefit.
Engineering Central enhances your business initiatives by providing ready-to-use product information management capabilities, combined with a rich set of engineering best practices.

Integration Products

Exploiting the full power of the Matrix 10 applications requires integrating it with existing software systems - these can be desktop personal productivity tools like mechanical CAD or enterprise systems like ERP.
