PTC (Nasdaq: PMTC), the product development companyTM,
and Airbus today announced that PTC Windchill® product
lifecycle management solutions have been deployed to create
the “product information backbone” of the Airbus A380,
the 555 passenger super jumbo aircraft now under development.
PRIMES (Product Relative Information Management Enterprise
Systems), the Windchill-based Airbus deployment, allows
the organization to manage product structure, change management,
the overall release process, 2D and 3D visualization,
and connectivity to other systems, including legacy systems
such as ERP. A new deployment of more than 600 seats,
to be based in the United Kingdom, brings to more than
2,000 the total number of Windchill seats deployed inside
Airbus today. The rest of the deployment is in France,
Germany and Spain, in various departments such as Engineering,
Manufacturing, Program Management, and Non Specific Design.
The deployment is expected to increase to more than 5,000
seats in 2003 with a project beginning this month. Windchill
is used across the entire Airbus consortium, providing
support for the multi-site organization spanning several
countries. The second phase will also allow management
of the federated product structure across all sites, effectivity
calculation, and complete and direct integration of the
various CAD/CAM tools on site.
