Oracle Offers Agile PLM Integration With SAP ERP

Oracle has announced the availability of Oracle’s Agile Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) Design-to-Release Process Integration Pack (PIP), connecting the Enterprise PLM Product Record in Oracle’s Agile PLM with SAP ERP.

Leveraging Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA), this pre-built process integration pack (PIP) enables enterprises to accelerate time-to-market for new products while reducing cost, improving quality and minimising supply chain disruptions.

Oracle’s Agile PLM Design-to-Release PIP is based on an open, standards-based service oriented architecture (SOA) designed to deliver seamless synchronisation of product content among distributed engineering and manufacturing organisations and the extended product network.

For years, Agile PLM customers have benefitted by leveraging integrations with SAP, and this latest standards-based integration will give customers even more flexibility to adapt to changing business environments.

Committed to working collaboratively with partners, Oracle co-developed the product with Sierra Atlantic, a provider of full lifecycle product development and IT services and a Certified Partner in the Oracle PartnerNetwork.

“Oracle is committed to enabling customers to maximise their application investments and the current announcement signals the first of many planned Oracle Application Integration Architecture PIPs that will connect our offerings with SAP ERP,” said Oracle vice president of Application Development and Product Strategy for AIA, Jose Lazares. “Early visibility into product development and supply chain data can significantly improve time-to-market and time-to-volume metrics, enabling sustainable and more predictable product innovation.”
