McLaren Software's Enterprise Engineer Receives EMC Documentum 6 Readiness Validation

McLaren Software announced that their flagship application suite Enterprise Engineer has received EMC Documentum 6 Readiness validation. The validation approval demonstrates that offering name has met a comprehensive set of criteria for testing and quality integration with the next-generation Documentum 6 platform.

Enterprise Engineer has been certified on the EMC Documentum platform through the Designed for EMC partner program beginning with version 4 in June of 2005. "The Designed for EMC partner program is important to McLaren Software, as it provides the vehicle for us to align our roadmap with EMC's Documentum platform," said Tim Taylor, Chief Business Development Officer at McLaren. "In addition the D6 validation gives our joint customers confidence that the Enterprise Engineer application suite will allow them to get the most value out of their EMC Documentum investment."

With the unveiling of EMC's Content-Enabled Solutions strategy, McLaren Software is well positioned as a pioneer in delivering content-centric applications. The Enterprise Engineer application suite provides customers with enterprise class business functionality that utilizes the underlying content management platform as its primary data store for unstructured content.

"EMC's Content-Enabled Solutions strategy highlights the maturation of the enterprise content management market, in which customers are no longer satisfied with developing their business application on top of a platform - they want to buy applications to meet their business needs," said Mike Jones, Vice President of Marketing for McLaren. "Further evidence is provided by key industry analyst groups such as Forrester Research with their Content-Centric Applications analysis and Gartner with their Content-Enabled Vertical Applications (CEVA) research."

Enterprise Engineer is a suite of configurable applications that manage engineering documentation and the work processes that produce and use this content. Enterprise Engineer provides a single point of controlled access for engineering documentation, such as CAD drawings, standard operating procedures, correspondence and specifications throughout the lifecycle of an asset or project. With built-in business rules, processes and security, Enterprise Engineer automates the use of engineering content across the company and with third party contractors improving intellectual worker performance and manageability.
