Teamcenter 2007 is the latest release of Teamcenter, the industry's
most widely used PLM portfolio. Despite being launched less than
two months ago on October 2, Teamcenter 2007 was selected from
hundreds of applicants to receive this award due to its unique
ability to enable manufacturers to enhance innovation while
reducing their overall cost of PLM ownership. Boasting a complete
service-oriented architecture (SOA), easy-to-use interface and
comprehensive end-to-end PLM solution set, Teamcenter 2007
establishes greater productivity for manufacturers through a single
source of product and process knowledge. "The editors here at
START-IT got a preview of Teamcenter 2007 shortly before its
official launch date in October and we could see immediately it was
a top candidate to receive this award," said Peggy Smedley,
editorial director of START-IT. "This is the type of innovative
technology that helps manufacturers enhance revenue opportunities
and improve business practices - and that is exactly why it was
selected as a winner." START-IT magazine helps manufacturers take
full advantage of the power of partnerships by emphasizing the
importance of IT partnerships and how these partners are working
together to reach their goals through the use of technology. The
Top 50 Technologies Awards honor products that target the
manufacturing space and help companies to improve their business
practices. Winning products were gauged on their uniqueness and
functionality in the market. "We are honored to receive this
recognition for all the effort that has gone into developing and
delivering the world's first truly integrated PLM solution based on
an SOA approach," said Steve Bashada, vice president of Teamcenter
Applications, Siemens PLM Software. "While Teamcenter has received
many awards over the past several years, the START-IT Top 50
Technologies Award highlights how Teamcenter 2007 marks a new era
in PLM." About Siemens PLM Software Siemens PLM Software, a
