aPriori Opens New Center for Advanced Cost Modelling
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Office in Northern Ireland to Extend Engineering & Implementation Capacity
CONCORD, Mass., Dec. 05, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- aPriori, the leading provider
of product cost management (PCM) software solutions, today announced the opening
of a new software development and technology implementation center,
headquartered in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The new Center for Advanced Cost
Modeling will be staffed by 15 highly skilled engineers that will expand
aPriori's cost modeling, software development, quality assurance and
implementation capacity. These engineers will build upon the world class
research & development staff working out of aPriori's corporate headquarters in
Concord, MA in the USA.
The new office also represents a productive new partnership with Invest Northern
Ireland. Representing Invest NI for the announcement at Parliament Buildings in
Belfast, Economy Minister Simon Hamilton MLA proclaimed, "aPriori Technologies
is an exciting and growing business with a global customer base and its decision
to establish a technical center in Belfast is a unique investment which requires
engineering and software expertise."
aPriori's product cost management platform provides global product
design and sourcing teams with real-time cost estimates on individual
components, subassemblies and complete products. The software leverages CAD and
intelligent cost models to quickly determine feasible manufacturing methods and
product costs while generating detailed manufacturing analysis and cost
estimates that quantify the impact of changes to product design, materials,
manufacturing processes, volumes and location in real time.
aPriori President and Chief Executive Officer, Stephanie Feraday, attending the
opening ceremony in Belfast today remarked, "Cost modelling and implementation
of product costing solutions requires particular expertise. With growing
customer demands, we realized we needed to recruit more staff to support the
company's continued development. Invest NI has been working with us over the
past 16 months as we considered our options and its support with our investment
was a significant factor in our decision to locate a new technical center in
Northern Ireland. The quality of research and teaching at Queen's University's
School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering impressed us and we are confident
that we can find the qualified technical staff we need among Northern Ireland's
engineering talent base to support our growth plans."
