PARTMINER® AND PRECIENCE ANNOUNCE NEW CSM SOLUTION POWERED BY CAPS™
Precience PartNavigator™ 3.0 provides quick deployment of high performance component supplier management (CSM) featuring integration of preferred parts, preferred suppliers and internal systems with the PartMiner® 22 Million device reference
CAPS™ Database.
MELVILLE, NY., August 25, 2003- PartMiner®, Inc., and Precience, Inc., today announced a new partnership to deliver component supplier management solutions that leverage the PartMiner® CAPS™ parametric reference database of 22 Million electrical and electro-mechanical components. PartNavigator 3.0 is the first product to ship as a result of this initiative and is now available from Precience for customers who purchase subscriptions to the PartMiner® CAPS™ system. An integration add-on subscription is required for existing CAPS™ customers.
“We are excited by the initial response that we have received from Beta testers who have told us that while they found other CSM solutions to be slow, difficult to use and poor at handling inquiries on entire Bills of Materials (BOM), CAPS and PartNavigator combined provide a powerful, easy to use and quick tool for part and BOM grading” said Ahmed Khan, President and CEO of Precience.
Chris Meyer, CEO of PartMiner® explained that “We are delighted to see that Precience now enables our customers to relate our 22 Million part reference database with their internal business rules of preferred parts, preferred suppliers and other considerations.”
The Last Runs service is available in the InfoMart section of the EBN Online web site at
