IBM is joining forces with MatrixOne on collaborative product
commerce (CPC) software. The agreement is part of IBM's
PartnerWorld for Developers programme.
The collaboration will focus on industries such as consumer
packaged goods and medical equipment, helping clients' procurement
and production teams collaborate and share data as they prepare new
products for market.
IBM and Matrix have agreed to jointly develop and market
MatrixOne's eMatrix CPC platform on IBM hardware, software and
middleware, including IBM eServer pSeries Unix systems, the IBM DB2
Universal Database, and the WebSphere platform.
