BAE Military Air Solutions Unit Selects UGS Teamcenter
LONDON,
UK and PLANO,
Texas, April 3, 2007 - UGS Corp., a leading global provider of product
lifecycle management (PLM) software and services, today announced that
Military Air Solutions, a business group of BAE Systems, has selected
Teamcenter software as its enterprise knowledge management technology for
specific aircraft platforms within its group. Teamcenter replaces the
existing solution and a number of legacy systems.
Military Air Solutions, which selected UGS following a comprehensive
evaluation process, will use UGS’ Teamcenter to support its new business
model of providing enhanced post-production support for customers’ aircraft.
Teamcenter will serve as the foundation for Military Air Solutions’
maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) solution and will manage all of the
product configurations for an individual aircraft – from design to disposal.
It will also serve as a virtual knowledge manager, seamlessly integrating
the data and functions associated with aircraft engineering and
post-delivery service and support.
One example of how Military Air Solutions will use Teamcenter is to
ensure that the British Ministry of Defense (MoD) has its required aircraft
fleet available for operational use at any given time. Using UGS’ PLM
technology, Military Air Solutions’ in-service personnel will have global
access to product data that will help predict maintenance activities and
requirements for spare parts, thus reducing aircraft downtime.
“BAE Systems is moving toward greater involvement in the life support of
its products by working in partnership with its principal customer,” said
Graham Malley, BAE Systems’ PLM Program manager. “With the lifespan of an
aircraft typically expanding to more than 50 years, managing complex data
needed to build, modify, repair and operate the aircraft is a challenging
task.”
“We understand the difficulty that a premier global defense company like
BAE Systems has in carrying out effective MRO services for such complex
products as aircrafts,” said Paul Vogel, senior vice president and managing
director, Europe, Middle East and Africa, UGS. “UGS’ PLM technology will
help BAE Systems Military Air Solutions provide leading in-service and MRO
support to its customers and continue to focus on driving leading aircraft
performance around the world.”
