March 15 2006 - 8:30AM
Business Wire
Medtronic, IntegWare, BioSense Webster, Gateway Group and GE
Healthcare to join MatrixOne in presenting timely case studies and
presentations in Illinois and California MatrixOne, Inc. (NASDAQ:
MONE), a leading provider of collaborative product lifecycle
management (PLM) solutions for the value chain(TM), today announced
that it will be hosting two free seminars focused on the product
development and regulatory compliance issues affecting medical
device manufacturing companies today. The events will take place in
Rosemont, Illinois on March 21, 2006 and in Costa Mesa, California
on March 28, 2006. Medical device manufacturers are facing pressure
on several fronts: fierce competition among manufacturers often
means that the company which gets its product to market first is
the winner--but just getting it to market can take forever, between
having to manage a global development process and collecting all of
the information needed to comply with regulations. In these
seminars, issues like these will be dissected, and attendees will
learn from real-life examples how software solutions like PLM can
put tools in place that make it easier to design high volume
medical devices, manage a global development process, ensure
consistent quality and shorten the cycle times needed to get a
product approved and out to market. In addition to a discussion of
the above issues and a demo of the MatrixOne Accelerator for FDA
Compliance(TM)--a single comprehensive solution that enables
medical device manufacturers to achieve FDA compliance throughout
their product lifecycle processes, drastically reducing product
development costs and helping them to deliver products to market
quicker than the competition--each event will feature guest
speakers that will share their insights on how medical
manufacturers can take advantage of PLM: -- The Illinois event will
feature GE Healthcare's PLM architect, Bhuvanesh Sharma, sharing
how GE Healthcare manages innovation in a global environment; Dr.
Ranier Hoff, president and senior principal consultant for the
Gateway Group, will discuss what the critical success factors are
for implementing PLM in an environment increasingly regulated by
the FDA; and Medtronic's Barbara Ruble, director PLM program
office, along with Spring Shi, Medtronic's PLM program strategist,
will present a case study on how to enable product innovation with
secure supplier collaboration. -- In California, Bobby Keen, vice
president of process excellence at BioSense Webster, a Johnson
& Johnson Company, will give a presentation focusing on the
pursuit and benefits of process excellence in the medical device
industry. He will be joined at the event by Scott Main, vice
president at IntegWare, who will share a case study on how to
prepare a strategy for the implementation and use of PLM in the
medical device industry; and Boris Cononetz, the PLM project
manager at Medtronic, who will lead a discussion on the benefits a
medical environment can realize from a PLM implementation. -0- *T
