NRX's VPS™ Delivery external parts catalog application
to be connected to mySAP™ Product Lifecycle Management
Toronto, Canada, March 14, 2002 - NRX Global
Corp (LSE;AIM:NRX) today announced that its Visual Parts
System (VPS™) Delivery, an electronic solution for visual
parts catalog and maintenance documentation, will be one of
the first third-party catalog applications to be supported
and connected to mySAP™ Product Lifecycle Management
(mySAP™ PLM). VPS Delivery is one component of NRX's
total digital data solution for maintenance.
"The agreement demonstrates recognition of the integrity
of NRX's integration software and our understanding of how
maintenance catalogs fit into maintenance workflows and enterprise
systems," said Paul Gray, CEO of NRX.
"It further emphasizes NRX's ability to deliver a secure
and seamless connection between the customer's parts and technical
equipment data and work order management in mySAP PLM, maintenance
planning and procurement applications," said Gray. "The
end result of the integration from NRX to mySAP PLM leads
to improved maintenance productivity and enhanced enterprise
system functionality for our customers."
In July 2001, NRX became an SAP Software Partner achieving
SAP Open Catalog Interface certification for its interface
to the e-procurement capabilities of the mySAP™ Supplier
Relationship Management (mySAP SRM) solution. The SAP Open
Catalog interface and a subsequent integration software module
to the plant maintenance capabilities of mySAP PLM Asset Life-Cycle
Management were jointly developed by NRX and Berlin based
Wessendorf Software and Consulting (WSC). They comprise part
of VPS Connect™, NRX's set of interfaces enabling data
exchange between VPS and leading enterprise systems.
As part of recent agreements, SAP has adopted the NRX/WSC
PM Integration Module as part of a standard mySAP PLM interface
to external parts catalogs. The interface will be generally
available with the forthcoming release of SAP R/3® Enterprise,
an integral part of the mySAP PLM solution.
"Our established relationship with SAP ensures we remain
on the cutting edge of integration applications with SAP business
solutions, enabling us to jointly enhance functionality for
maintenance users of SAP solutions and NRX's large industrial
customers," said Gray.
