HP and UGSEasy. Reliable. Productive. Powering complete solutions for Product Lifecycle Management

HP and UGS:Get more from PLMUGS has enriched and refined its product lifecyclemanagement systems suites to offer near-seamlessproduct flow management that is standardized withoutsacrificing easy customization. HP has developed arelationship with UGS that ensures our hardwaresolutions are excellent complements to tools like UGSNX or Teamcenter, helping to improve your return-on-investment and time-to-market. We now offer consultancyservices to help review your production and ITinfrastructure and find efficiencies.

Stability, performance; a better return-on-investmentThe HP/UGS alliance provides:

• Solutions that provide optimized performance thanks toHP tools like our Performance Tuning Framework whichallows you to tune your workstation for settings specificto UGS

• Workstations requiring minimal IT support to achievegreat performance out-of-the-box, they are easy to useand reliable performers

• Better system stability thanks to thoroughly testeddrivers and a strict Q&A process

Less support costs, less down timeSystem failure costs money and time; instead of spendingsupport finding out who should support you in event ofa problem, HP is the single point of call. We have theexpertise to minimize time-to-resolution.

HP and UGS share a unique strategic alliance goingback 17 years because it is valuable to our sharedcustomers. Our Application Competency Center hasHP engineers onsite permanently with UGS. Theyconduct extensive testing and certify entire systemsthat are optimized to run NX and other UGS applica-tions. This unmatched collaboration provides userswith reliable, easy-to-own solutions and breakthroughtechnology that increase productivity.

"We suggest you consider the relationshipyour prospective hardware vendor has withyour chosen software vendors. Strong rela-tionships can mean greater stability, systemperformance, and faster problem resolution.The HP & UGS alliance is an excellentexample." Brad Holtz,President & CEO, Cyon Researchi

The broadest range of the latest technologiesHP ensures our workstations offer the latest technologiesas quickly as possible, often shipping before ourcompetitors, giving our systems an even longer workinglife. We also offer a broad range of technologies tomatch your diverse infrastructure and design requirements:

• Our widest choice of graphics cards via ourLeadership Graphics Program, which ensures eachcard is thoroughly tested with your UGS application.

• The latest technology like extended 64-bit processorsii tosimplify your workflow for models pushing more than 3GB of memory, dual core processors, or the choicebetween Intel® and AMD® architectures.

• HP exclusive configuration, security, management andremote access tools to streamline your workstationoptimization and support,or even change the wayyou work.

Helping businesses of all sizesHP and UGS are now able to offer consultancy serviceswhich draw on the CAD and IT infrastructure expertise ofboth companies. We can assist you in maximizing yourinvaluable assets by changing and automating processesand structures to improve efficiency, reduce complexity,and build new skills in your IT group.

The benefits of this are simplification, technologyintegration and standardization, allowing you to improvefast access to information, optimize resource utilization,or make supply and production flows more efficient.

All your solution needsHP is a one-stop vendor with the infrastructure, expertise,and industry relationships to support a wide range ofhardware and software solutions. HP offers customers aplatform architecture of choice, PA-RISC, Intel or AMDwith a choice of OS from Microsoft® Windows®, Linux®

or UNIX®, on workstations to high-end servers, combinedwith HP’s storage, middleware and planning/implementa-tion and integration services. Whether you need a server,security or data management tools, a plotter, aworkstation, or a PDA, we’re there to help.

More engineering productivityWhen we design our workstations and the software toolsthat support them, we draw on our own CAD knowledgeexperience, the feedback we get from our customers,large and small, and our extensive relationship withUGS. This enables us to provide you with tools that willhave as long a productive lifespan as possible with aslittle support or configuration intervention as possible.

We also work with a wide variety of hardware vendors,such as graphics cards manufacturers, to ensure that wecan prevent as many potential issues as possible andachieve the fastest resolution possible should one arise.We test and consolidate all the necessary drivers for HPWorkstations, then make them available in an automateddownload and installation process.

Thorough design and testing for better uptimesWhen we design HP Workstations, we build themto disperse heat efficiently and quietly. This extendscomponent life and makes for a less distracting officeenvironment. We test our systems extensively in highstress environments and configurations – in many casesbeyond the requirements of international standardsbodies. We then certify our workstations with UGS toensure performance and stability with your applications.

Easy to manage, secure, and updateOur workstations come with Altiris diagnostic andmanagement utilities and a set of security tools. Wealso provide our own Performance Tuning Frameworkapplication that automates your system setup and opti-mization, allowing a "custom" configuration that bestmatches the workstation to user requirements. It ensures

you have the latest, tested, and stable graphics cardsand drivers, and can optimize memory availability for32-bit applications. You don’t need to spend time onthe web with readme files, or downloading and installingdrivers that you hope will work well together – we cando it for you.

Optimized desktop performance or across a networkWe can help you achieve the best performancepossible on UGS applications with our workstations.Our HyperTune utility for UGS is part of thePerformance Tuning Framework; it can improvegraphics performance by more than 20%.

We have also developed revolutionary 3D graphicstechnology to allow real-time, fully accelerated collabora-tive reviews across an ordinary network. Using the HPRemote Graphics Software, you can access a workstationfrom any system over unlimited distances and with almostno performance loss. You can review designs remotely,view simulation results or share designs without having totransfer files.

Highly affordablePricing is never a secondary consideration in ourengineering decisions. We are always looking forintelligent ways to shave design and manufacturing costs.This ensures our workstations are always competitivelypriced without sacrificing any of the benefits of stabilityand performance.
