Materials Compliance Suite
by Atrion International
The Materials Compliance Suite is made up of three
applications. The Intelligent Authoring (IA) application is used for authoring
and distributing regulatory documents globally. The Document Manager application
is our document scanning, archiving, and web distribution application. The Event
Processor application is a unique tool that allows you to manage events coming
from ERP systems, which need to be introduced into your EHS&T system
(materials master, bill of materials, customer order, customer profile, etc.).
Our Software Development Kit (SDK) describes all the information required for
your technical people to interface and adapt our suite to your needs. Satellite
applications (such as Lotus Link and Label Management) are also available.

The DS PLM solution suite is embodied in four key brands—CATIA, DELMIA,
ENOVIA, and SIMULIA—which form one of the industry’s most comprehensive PLM
software portfolios. Used separately or collectively, the vendor’s proven
applications define, simulate, and optimize all products, processes, and
resources in an all-3D environment powered by an open development platform.
With DS PLM V5 solutions, all business processes are linked
together—including change management, activity and time management, asset
management, and more. By enabling employees to collaborate in real time while
accessing and sharing the same up-to-date information, companies can increase

As a result, all organizational groups and processes–from design through
marketing to maintenance–can share, reuse, and enhance product information in
the pursuit of an optimum business strategy.
For Virtual Product Design: CATIACATIA enables users to simulate the
entire range of the industrial design process, from concept to product design,
analysis, and assembly. The CATIA product line covers all types of design and
engineering needs and seamlessly integrates with the vendor’s other brands.
For Virtual Production: DELMIADELMIA enables manufacturers to digitally
plan, create, monitor, and control production and maintenance processes. DELMIA
applications provide complete coverage of manufacturing processes.
For a Global Collaborative Environment: ENOVIAENOVIA addresses user
requirements across the full spectrum of product and business processes, from
small-scale teams to extended enterprises with many thousands of users. The
ENOVIA portfolio consists of three product lines:• ENOVIA VPLM—management of
highly complex product, resource, and manufacturing processes in medium and
large extended enterprises • ENOVIA MatrixOne—collaborative product
development business processes for enterprises across a wide range of
industries, including synchronicity for semiconductor design data management
• ENOVIA SmarTeam—collaborative product data management for small to medium
businesses, engineering departments of larger organizations, and across supply
chains
For Virtual Testing: SIMULIABy building on established technology,
respected quality, and superior customer service, SIMULIA makes realistic
simulation an integral business practice that enables engineers and scientists
to improve product performance, reduce the number of physical prototypes, and
drive innovation.
