SofTech Case Study: Fibertek Sets Its Sights with ProductCenter PLM

LOWELL, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SofTech, Inc. (PK: SOFT), a proven provider of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions, announces its latest ProductCenter® PLM case study featuring Fibertek, Inc. of Herndon, Virginia. Fibertek, Inc. is a leading developer and producer of advanced solid-state lasers and highly sophisticated electro-optical sensor systems for military and aerospace applications.

Initially deployed to integrate Fibertek’s Development and Manufacturing operations, ProductCenter’s use has expanded throughout the organization providing access to critical information. The Engineering, Quality and Finance departments as well as Fibertek’s Management team all rely on ProductCenter to deliver the right information at the right time.

With this implementation, Fibertek, Inc. has achieved the following benefits:

• Increased productivity, improved data integrity and streamlined product design and development processes
• Early visibility into the product development process, leading to less re-design, fewer change orders and more re-use
• Secure control and accurate access to product data significantly improves data management processes and facilitates compliance initiatives

Additionally, by controlling all of the product design and development documentation, ProductCenter will be instrumental in Fibertek’s success with the recent contract award to develop lasers for NASA’s Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) Observatory mission scheduled to launch in 2016.
