Release Date: Thursday, June 03, 2010
SJ+ Systems Associates is pleased to announce the early adoption of PRC for SB/XA by Epicor Software to support development of the Avanté enterprise solution designed for make-to-stock and mixed-mode manufacturers. This latest release of SJ+'s software lifecycle management tool is in use for new Avanté development today, and will be delivered to customers with future releases.
With 20 years of refinement behind the release, PRC continues to deliver its signature management capabilities while adapting to changing platforms. Beyond the scope of the new user interface, this release will be generally available on all platforms as PRC 7 in late 2010 and includes a number of remarkable enhancements to improve user experience, compliance and control.
"New regulations and trends in best practices are carefully accommodated without compromising the agility IT have come to expect from their U2 platform," says Susan Joslyn, President of SJ+ Systems Associates, Inc. and chief architect of PRC.
