September 7, 2011 - Siemens released Teamcenter Mobility mobile device application (app), with enhancements that significantly enrich the end user’s ability to participate in the PLM process from the Apple Inc. iPad portable digital device. In addition to instantly accessing the existing product knowledge managed using Teamcenter software from any WiFi or mobile broadband-available location, Teamcenter Mobility 2.0 provides individuals with the ability to capture and contribute additional knowledge, browse product structures and initiate workflow processes. Teamcenter, the world’s most widely used digital lifecycle management solution, continues to serve as the preferred PLM system for manufacturing companies throughout the world.
Earlier this year, Siemens PLM Software announced Teamcenter Mobility to address the growing need for these companies to instantly and securely deliver data managed by Teamcenter to more, and often unconventional, locations via wireless mobile devices. As the adoption and usage of mobile solutions continues to accelerate, companies are requiring richer and broader functionality from their mobile apps. Teamcenter Mobility 2.0 addresses this need by allowing mobile users to not only access data in Teamcenter, but to also submit new product data into Teamcenter, regardless of their location. In addition to enabling the user to check information into Teamcenter, Teamcenter Mobility allows a user to initiate workflows.
Also, Teamcenter Mobility 2.0 now supports markup, allowing users to annotate a document or image to communicate specific issues or instructions.
