To enable process manufacturers to make the process more efficient for product development, material selection, formulation and new product introductions, Infor has announced a new approach named Infor Optiva 11 for product lifecycle management (PLM). Functional improvements include improved project management, an enhanced user experience, collaborative social functionality through Infor Ming.le and an upgrade to .Net 4.0, and validation for Windows SQL 2012 servers.
Infor Optiva 11 helps customers stay competitive by enabling them to develop high-quality products at a lower cost and launch them more quickly in the market place. The solution enhances the ability to deliver a high-quality product from a reliable, cost-efficient formula, while maintaining compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. Infor Optiva 11 consolidates information into one repository and as a platform-neutral solution, can support systems from multiple vendors.
Chris Krechting, VP, global PLM sales, Infor, said, As we continue to enrich Infor Optiva, customers consistently validate the strengths of our formula and provide insight to drive future enhancements. The Infor Optiva 11 creates a strong foundation for the ongoing growth of PLM capabilities amongst our process manufacturing customers.
Infor Optiva 11 also supports Infor Ming.le, for social collaboration, business process improvement and contextual analytics. Based from the recent launch of Infor’s 10X platform, Optiva 11 provides the ability for users to connect socially and drill down into the application level to further enhance communication.
