Georg Fisher AG Standardizes on Actify SpinFire
SAN
FRANCISCO, CA, Aug 15, 2007 – Actify Inc., the global leader in digital
design communication solutions, with over 500 discrete manufacturing
companies as customers and 10,000 licenses on active maintenance, today
announced that Georg Fischer Automotive AG, a European technology and market
leader in the areas of casting for the automotive industry, will be
standardizing its design data communications and visualization with SpinFire
Professional throughout the company. Georg Fischer Automotive has been using
SpinFire Professional successfully for 6 years at various factories. As the
company has grown over the years Georg Fischer's design communication and
visualization needs have also grown. Due to the benefits they have received
from using Actify's visualization solution it was an easy decision to expand
and standardize on Actify's solution throughout the company in 13 locations
and 5 countries.
"We have decided to use SpinFire Professional as the central data
visualization and communication solution in order to achieve higher
investment security and reduce costs," Uwe Kruse, CIO of GF Automotive
explained. "With SpinFire Professional, we can increase collaboration in the
design process and shorten development cycles, while improving quality and
customer satisfaction."
Actify's partner Infotech Enterprises GmbH, the German subsidiary of the
global IT Services company Infotech Enterprises Ltd., India, which
specializes in Engineering Design Services (EDS), Geographic Information
Systems (GIS) and IT Services, is actively supporting Georg Fischer
Automotive in the implementation of the project. By analyzing the needs of
each location, Infotech Enterprises has been able to identify the exact
communication and visualization solution needed to support the design
process in the most efficient way.
SpinFire Professional is gaining more and more importance as it is being
used as a company-wide collaboration tool, and not only in engineering. Its
usage spans across various departments, such as sales, marketing, logistics,
purchasing, key-account management, quality management, and assembly. With
Actify's compressed .3D format, the relevant data can be easily and securely
made available, throughout the organization and to external partners,
without requiring the knowledge, or use, of a CAD system. Thus, the company
can reduce costs in product development, purchasing, tender preparation and
production, as well as in sales and marketing, while increasing
productivity.
