Innovations and Enhancements Deliver Substantial Business Value

Enhancements and innovations in Agile PLM 9. include:

- Supplier Risk Analysis - Identifies high-risk suppliers based on quality, compliance and over exposure, enabling users to make better decisions about their supplier relationships across product portfolio.

- Part Risk Analysis - Categorizes and identifies newly introduced parts, parts that lack product record information (price, compliance, specifications) or are at risk of obsolescence.

- Product Quality Risk Analysis - Detects which products are most impacted by quality issues, prioritizes customer complaints by urgency and severity.

- Product Design Volatility Analysis - Identifies which products or product lines have the most late-stage changes during the new product release cycle, and outlines the severity of those changes and operational impact.

These ytics enhancements are also available to customers running Agile PLM 9.2.2 and higher.

Enterprise PLM Backbone - Many existing design and document management applications fail to deliver strategic business value because of difficulties in integrating them with other business applications. In contrast, Agile PLM 9. provides a complete Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) that allows companies to integrate it's various components to existing engineering and enterprise systems. This enables companies to seamlessly deploy these PLM services and achieve their business objectives while managing costs. Some of the key features introduced in this release are:

- SOA Enterprise PLM Platform - Modularized web services, event management and extensible scripting for all PLM components including CAD objects to easily deploy, integrate, mash-up and extend product lifecycle processes.

- Integrated Product Master Data Management - Manage data mappings, improve data quality and data governance across the heterogeneous systems integrated to the Enterprise PLM Backbone.

- Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA) - Continued development of out-of-the-box open standards-based integrations to broader enterprise systems including Oracle and SAP.

User Productivity Tools - Agile PLM 9. enhances user productivity by leveraging a Web 2.0 User Interface. Lab tests of Agile PLM 9. using real product data from a large global customer showed a 70 percent reduction in clicks and improvements to user productivity. New productivity improvements include:

- New User Interface Controls - In-line table editing, context aware pop-ups, new drag and drop capabilities, type ahead fields and more streamlined controls.

- Enhanced User Personalization - Column-locking, ordering and hiding, multi-column sorting and filtering, and personal views.

- Simplified Access - expose Agile documents directly to the desktop file browser or point Agile PLM to existing document vaults.

- User Training Management - Personalized context help through Oracle User Productivity Kit (UPK) and video quick tours to reduce deployment time and training significantly.
