Selerant Announces Expansion to Greater China Market

NEW YORK, March 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Selerant (www.selerant.com) announces its expansion into the Greater China Market, answering the demand of an untapped PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) market for the process manufacturing industry.

"DevEX (Selerant's web-based PLM solution) provides the much needed innovation and product data management tools needed in China.  And on a more critical note- provides them with an integrated regulatory toolset to manage the newer legislations passed by the government." Nicola Colombo, Selerant CSO explains, "When melamine-contaminated milk infiltrated the market, the government pushed for stricter requirements.  Corporations were then forced to seek greater control in their own management tools.  DevEX gives them the control; and now our new operations will give them access to these tools."

Selerant is closely coordinating with ValuePlus, a Taiwanese consulting firm with strong expertise and knowledge about PLM in the process industry. "We have established a strategic alliance with ValuePlus." Colombo continues, "They are a trusted partner and helped us develop an out-of-the-box PLM solution for the greater China region.  Moreover, we are also delivering legislation data that will make DevEX a ready-to-use PLM for Food and Beverage."

The roadmap for this plan includes opening the offices in Taipei, Shanghai and Beijing with local consultants and support teams. Selerant has also announced availability of SAAS PLM from 4^th quarter of 2010.

"ValuePlus is very excited for this strategic alliance. DevEX is state of the art for PLM in Process Industry, " states Christie Lin, Director of Business Solutions at ValuePlus. "It provides flexibility while having everything that a company needs to quickly start leveraging the benefits of PLM. "
