REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., April 6 -- News Facts
-- Oracle today announced the availability of Oracle's Agile Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) Design-to-Release Process Integration Pack (PIP), connecting the Enterprise PLM Product Record in Oracle's Agile PLM with SAP ERP.
-- Leveraging Oracle(R) Application Integration Architecture (AIA), this pre-built process integration pack (PIP) enables enterprises to accelerate time-to-market for new products while reducing cost, improving quality and minimizing supply chain disruptions.
-- Oracle's Agile PLM Design-to-Release PIP is based on an open, standards-based service oriented architecture (SOA) designed to deliver seamless synchronization of product content among distributed engineering and manufacturing organizations and the extended product network.
-- For years, Agile PLM customers have benefited by leveraging integrations with SAP, and this latest standards-based integration will give customers even more flexibility to adapt to changing business environments.
-- Committed to working collaboratively with partners, Oracle co-developed the product with Sierra Atlantic, a provider of full lifecycle product development and IT services and a Certified Partner in the Oracle PartnerNetwork.
Optimizing Processes Delivers Value

-- Specific benefits of the PIP include:
-- Next generation composite process and solution capabilities that are configurable, extensible and sustainable and allow customers to leverage current and future systems investments.
-- Pre-built, open standards-based and complete "Design to Release" flow for new product releases.
-- Seamless, cross-application execution of the change management process releasing product design updates to manufacturing.
-- Configurable, extensible, bi-directional synchronization of engineering and supply chain information between PLM and manufacturing for greater visibility, without the need for recoding and with protection of changes across upgrades.
-- User-friendly configuration that allows both business and IT users to easily define and manage value maps for the key elements important to them.
-- A robust process monitoring, error handling and configurable notification management framework to help minimize impact on transfer process, product quality, cost and time to market.
