New
McLaren Enterprise Engineer Partner Program.
McLaren
Software is about to complete a strategic reconstruction
of its Enterprise Engineer Partner Program. For the past
3 months a careful review and selection process has been
undertaken to identify the next generation of partners.
Given McLaren's proven market leadership in the
management of engineering content, this has been a vital
exercise to ensure the availability of a high quality
pre and post-sales support structure for our growing
customer base.
The
prospective partners were qualified against stringent
criteria, including technical accreditation with our two
strategic platform partners, Documentum and FileNet and
also on their expertise and knowledge of engineering
processes and content. The resulting group of partners
in North America, Latin America and Europe will be
announced by the end of May and will be thoroughly
trained in McLaren products during Q3.
For
more information on becoming a McLaren Enterprise
Engineer partner
email Paul Smith, Partner
Director.

Online
Seminar: Managing engineering content within an ECM
standardization project. 19th May 2004, 08:30 am PDT, 11:30 am EDT, 4:30 pm UK
Time (GMT +1)
Increasingly
organizations are issuing requirements to standardize on
one ECM platform. For owner operators controlling risk
and ensuring compliance is a major challenge with vast
amounts of unstructured data being created and managed
by engineering departments.
What
are the options?
- Is it a case of
linking existing departmental engineering systems?
- Is it simply a case of
linking and managing CAD files within an ECM system?
- Is it an opportunity
to bring engineering and IT standards together, so
that engineering content is managed within the
context of enterprise wide business rules and
processes?
Join
McLaren and Documentum for an online seminar that looks
at the business and integration issues that need to be
addressed, and the benefits to be gained, from managing
engineering content at an enterprise level on a common
ECM platform.
