APEX 2011:
Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced that
it has received the Circuits Assembly Magazine New Product
Introduction (NPI) Award for the Valor® vManageTM Materials Manager
product in the Software-Management category. The Materials Manager
software product is a collection of applications based on the
vManage database that streamlines material flow in the form of kits
linked to work orders from ERP. This helps ensure that the right
material arrives at the right location on the shop floor at the
right time. The benefits of the Materials Manager product include
accurately matching the continuous flow of material entering the
shop floor to real-time rates of production and spoilage; achieving
minimum inventory levels to prevent line stops; and keeping the
factory responsive to changing requirements.
When ERP and Warehouse Management tools have limited visibility
to shop floor material movements or actual production rates, a lean
solution can be impossible to achieve. Often, excess material is
committed to operations to create a buffer to keep things moving,
resulting in added costs, tying up capital and masking the real
problems. The vManage Materials Manager software bases all material
movements on accurate real-time data from the shop floor, whether
delivering materials directly to a machine, or managing set-up on
an off-line trolley.
Premiering in 2008, the New Product Introduction Awards
sponsored by Circuits Assembly Magazine is an annual celebration of
product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier
products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in
technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry
experts.
“We are honored to accept the NPI award for our vManage
Materials Manager software which provides a solution for lean and
efficient manufacturing today, delivering real value and a rapid
return on investment for electronics designers and manufacturers,”
stated Dan Weitzman, Americas regional business manager, Valor
Division of Mentor Graphics. “This is the second year in a row that
Valor has been recognized for its innovative software technologies,
winning the 2010 NPI Award for the Valor MSS software suite.”
The Materials Manager product was founded on the principles of
“Lean Thinking,” eliminating waste of all descriptions, including
materials and energy, resulting in reduced environment and
financial costs. The software is commercially flexible, allowing
customers to add or select functions to meet immediate needs, and
also features the technical flexibility to connect to other systems
and databases through API SDK. For more information on the Mentor
Graphics® PCB and the Valor products, visit the company website at
