Aras®, the next leader in enterprise Product Lifecycle
Management (PLM) software, today announced Sysmex Corporation, a leading
international manufacturer of laboratory testing instruments and reagents
for medical laboratories worldwide, has selected Aras Innovator® PLM
platform. The company will standardize product design information as
electronic master data and streamline data management between development
and manufacturing. The implementation will help the company meet compliance
requirements for medical instrument manufacturers.

After evaluating several document management systems and Bill of Materials
(BOM) solutions, Sysmex selected Aras for its native Web platform
technology, solution flexibility, and out-of-the-box BOM management
capabilities. Sysmex will use Aras as an integral part of its transfer of
design information among product development and manufacturing processes,
in order to ensure compliance with medical instrument regulations.

“Sysmex has a long history of providing leading laboratory testing
instruments and reagents for medical organizations worldwide,” said Peter
Schroer, CEO of Aras. “Aras will provide Sysmex with the control and
flexibility to improve collaboration and unify the product development
process across their expanding business units.”
