Technology Enables Customers to Bring Smart, Connected Products to Market Faster
NEEDHAM, Mass. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — July 1, 2014 — PTC (Nasdaq: PTC) has completed its acquisition of Atego, a developer of model-based systems and software engineering applications.
The acquisition enhances PTC’s portfolio of product lifecycle management (PLM) and application lifecycle management (ALM) solutions and strengthens PTC’s commitment to supporting its customers’ systems engineering initiatives with powerful modeling capabilities.
Atego’s market-leading Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) solution connects requirements engineering, architecture modeling, physical product definition, and system verification functions. This enables efficiencies and process standardization, allowing distributed teams to collaboratively build digital models of complex systems while managing system variability and enabling reuse.
