PLM deliverables and due dates, modify the length of tasks, even shift a whole schedule to start on a different day or week. Because the Gantt chart is integrated within Active Workspace, users can trigger notifications in Teamcenter's Notification Center to all affected people when a schedule has shifted. REACH OUT TO IT DEPARTMENTS The newly introduced Deployment Center gives IT profes- sionals a centralized web-based tool for deploying Teamcenter and then monitoring those deployments. The center also lets IT upgrade Active Workspace in existing Teamcenter instances, create demonstration or testing environments and consistently deploy any custom software built for those Teamcenter installations. All of this contributes to lowering Teamcenter's total cost of ownership (TCO). The switch to the "declarative and extensible framework" in Active Workspace also lowers TCO. This framework, says Bohman, is "a whole new way to extend Teamcenter to new business processes without writing code— moving from a codeful program- ming model to a codeless programming model." This change saves time creating and reusing blocks of code that have been proven to work, insulates under- lying technology changes, lowers costly downtime to redeploy changes and creates software that requires a smaller memory footprint and is easily scalable. Users and senior execs will be pleased, too: The declarative user interface framework, particularly the re-usable widgets, helps IT departments easily create adaptive PLM environments tailored to a company's unique business processes. No question that Teamcenter is reaching out and touching…everything product-related. With Active Workspace, users can scroll through attachments "like they were looking through a photo album." Powered by Tiger·tec ® Silver M4000 is the universal system for all users who want to have as many options as possible when milling. The M4000 range can master all machining tasks with our most efficient indexable insert powered by Tiger·tec ® Silver.
