Planview has signed an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) partnership agreement with Siemens PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation division, to integrate Planview Enterprise portfolio management software into Siemens PLM Software’s Teamcenter software solution.
The integration would combine top-down planning and bottom-up programme execution to streamline operational activities. These organisations claim to work together to further their customers’ abilities to link bottom-up programme and project execution with strategic product portfolio decisions; to plan capacity and manage resources to ensure execution that meets time to market requirements; and to evaluate the business impact of market trends, competitive pressures and other change drivers before making decisions on the product portfolio and projects in flight.
Steve Bashada, vice president of Teamcenter Applications at Siemens PLM Software, said: We are delighted to have this strong partnership with Planview, a recognised leader in the portfolio management space. Our relationship with Planview will enable product organisations to further leverage Teamcenter to help optimise their product portfolios in an effort to achieve the greatest market impact and to meet their strategic business objectives.
