On Wednesday we announced Teamcenter Mobility 2.0, our latest mobile PLM release. Yesterday Eric Sterling shared the app in more detail to analysts and editors attending our analyst event in Boston. As Kenneth Wong points out in Teamcenter Mobility 2.0 From Passive Consumption to Active Participation, much of the audience at the event is already quite attached to their iPads.
Analysts React! What they have to say about all the news at the Siemens PLM Analyst event
I’m writing this post from the confines of the southern outpost of the Milford, Ohio office (i.e. my home office) after having flown back this morning from Boston. While the Siemens PLM analyst event is still in my short term memory, I wanted to get thisout to give you all something to watch over the weekend.
I was able to corral three of the analysts at the event and asked them a few rapid fire questions about the new organization, the customer presentations and all the new technoligies we rolled out and previewed. Even more amazing than getting all three of these guys in one place, I actually got them to all chip in their answers on 3 different questions in less than 10 minutes (the key was to start rolling tape about 11 minutes before the executive Q&A session started so they had incentive to be concise with their answers).

He emphasized taking the CAD model to the next level, which any manufacturer can benefit from. John also noted Aerojet recently migrated to Teamcenter Unified Architecture to work from one common database.

Lexmark gets green with NX
As much as I love hearing us talk about ourselves , I love it even more when customers talk about us </sarcasm>. In all seriousness, one of the things I miss the most about being a demo jock is being able to meeting with customers almost every day and hear about the cool new things they are working on and the part our software played in that. (As a side note, one thing I don’t miss is lugging around a 35 lb SGI Workstation – I was a demo jock a long time ago). Its what keeps me going back to PLM Connection events year after year.
The second customer to talk about at this year’s Siemens PLM Analyst event was Ben Shepherd who manages the PLM Global Center of Excellence for Lexmark. Printers are pretty complicated machines and Lexmark was a leader in applying CAD software to help make them better. Their CAD software pedigree includes: Continue reading “Lexmark gets green with NX” »

Tony Affuso presented this morning at our analyst/media event here in Boston. He focused on innovation, customer commitment and key areas we are winning business.
