Technia Delivers PLM System to Proximion
Technia, a leading Nordic supplier of solutions for lifecycle management of product information, has signed an agreement with Proximion Fiber Systems concerning implementation of a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). Technia will deliver and implement a solution based on Matrix for management of product data, which supports company's internal development process.
Proximion develops, manufactures and delivers high technology products for fiber network to global markets. As a relatively newly established company, in a strong expansion, Proximion lacked an IT support for management of product data. Proximion considered a number of different options and chose a PLM solution based on Matrix from Technia.
"Our products are technically advanced with many different variants. This generates a big amount of product data. We noticed in an early phase that we needed a PLM-system that supports our internal development process and at the same time makes it possible for us to continue growing without increasing the company's total expenses. Selection of Technia and Matrix is founded on the solution's strong dominance within telecom/ high-tech industry and Technia experience and understanding of our business needs" says Stefan Ekman, CEO, Proximion.
According to agreement, Technia will deliver a solution based on Matrix PLM platform combined with Engineering Central and Technia own additional module, Technia Value Components. System, that estimates to be on use in the beginning of 2006, will be operating as a support for all approximately 100 Proximion employees.
"We are naturally proud of that Proximion chose Technia as a partner for their investment in PLM. This new deal establishes our existing strong position within telecom/high-tech and SME segment. At the same time, it is a unique possibility since it consists of delivering an IT solution to a newly established company where the client can adapt to the best practices from the beginning. In a project such this one, there is a truly chance to utilize all the possibilities that a modern and flexible Matrix PLM-system provides" says Staffan Hanstorp, CEO, Technia.
