According to a recent Aberdeen Group report, 3D publishing -- the process of repurposing and reusing engineering design data downstream -- supports the fastest growing area of cross-departmental improvement in the product lifecycle, and companies that don't develop 3D publishing capabilities could be left at a significant disadvantage.
Cardinal Solutions and Right Hemisphere have aligned their respective expertise to deploy new PGM and 3D PDF solutions downstream to support the 3D creation and publishing processes of manufacturing instructions, technical publications, installation manuals, maintenance procedures, marketing collateral, and more.
"We're seeing demand intensify from our customers to increase automation and change management in their 3D publishing by integrating our PGM solutions with their existing PLM, ERP, ECM and other enterprise systems," said Right Hemisphere Vice President of Business Development Anton Commissaris. "In Cardinal Solutions, we've found a proven, highly skilled partner we trust to implement PGM and 3D PDF solutions with Adobe LiveCycle information process management."
Cardinal Solutions is a full service consulting firm to Fortune 500 companies with special expertise in the planning, development, and integration of UGS Teamcenter® PLM software, Adobe® LiveCycle® interactive process management software, and Right Hemisphere's own Deep Server™ enterprise PGM software.
"New PGM solutions from Right Hemisphere provide an enormous opportunity for our manufacturing customers to extract additional value from their existing PLM implementations as well as increase their overall product collaboration and publishing capabilities," said Michael York, executive vice president of business development for Cardinal Solutions. "In particular, Right Hemisphere's software helps us deliver a comprehensive 2D and 3D PDF publishing solution for source data derived from UGS Teamcenter and other PLM systems. With PDF as our publishing tool and full Adobe LiveCycle support, just about anyone, anywhere can make immediate use of these publishing solutions."
UGS Teamcenter, the JT format, and Adobe LiveCycle are widely accepted and used by large manufacturers. Among its other benefits, Right Hemisphere PGM software establishes an additional path for these manufacturers and their supply chain partners into and out of UGS Teamcenter for parts and assemblies created in a wide variety of CAD applications. Right Hemisphere software also enables the data authored in JT from Teamcenter and other PLM software to be published in other popular downstream formats such as Microsoft® Office®. With these automated publishing capabilities, companies can reuse valuable CAD assets in many other critical business processes for collaboration, product support documentation, and more.
