Broadband Solutions Provider Improves Productivity Across Entire Product Lifecycle

Redwood Shores, Calif. – June 15, 2010

News Facts

To improve productivity across the entire product lifecycle, 2Wire, a leading provider of broadband solutions, has deployed Oracle's Agile Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) 9.3, part of Oracle’s Product Value Chain solution.
Operating in an increasingly complex global marketplace, 2Wire sought an enterprise PLM system that could help drive profitable innovations, mitigate risk and lower development and product costs.
By leveraging the productivity-enhancing innovations in Agile PLM 9.3, 2Wire has been able to improve collaboration and productivity across its rapidly expanding global design team while reducing management costs.
The new Web 2.0 user interface controls and enhanced user personalization delivered by Agile PLM 9.3 have improved usability and increased accessibility, helping 2Wire to drive collaboration.
Simplified access through a Web based client further increases productivity by allowing users to access Agile PLM documents directly from their desktop or link the new PLM system to existing document vaults.
2Wire has also been able to reduce management costs and significantly reduce deployment and training time by leveraging user training management improvements within Oracle Agile PLM 9.3 including personalized context help through the Oracle User Productivity Kit (UPK) and video quick tours.
By providing an enterprise PLM backbone that integrates other applications and hundreds of productivity-enhancing innovations, Agile PLM 9.3 has enabled 2Wire to stay competitive in an increasingly competitive global marketplace by increasing productivity across the entire product lifecycle.
2Wire first invested in Oracle in 1999 and is currently using a range of Agile PLM 9.3 modules including Agile Product Collaboration, Agile Product Cost Management, Agile Quality Management and Agile Product Governance and Compliance.
Oracle’s Product Value Chain solution includes Oracle’s Agile PLM, Oracle Product Hub, Oracle’s AutoVue Enterprise Visualization and Oracle Product Data Quality. This gives customers a comprehensive solution to manage all product information, integrated product lifecycle processes, secure collaboration, data quality and knowledge management across the product value chain – including design, supply and demand functions.
