NEEDHAM, MA. – November 3, 2010 - PTC (Nasdaq: PMTC), The Product Development Company®, today announced that NCR Corporation has selected Pro/ENGINEER® ( now Creo™ Elements/Pro™), PTC’s design software, and Windchill®, PTC’s PLM software to consolidate its data environment and enable faster global product development and innovation.
The implementation is part of NCR’s corporate strategy to converge on one design platform and to establish an enterprise-wide repository for design data management. This strategy will help drive innovation across the company and bring next-generation innovations in self-service technology to market faster.
Together, Pro/ENGINEER (now Creo Elements/Pro) and Windchill provide a standard design platform and global design data management system for NCR.
