Right Hemisphere Announces South African Launch with Top

VAR/SI ESTEQ in October 2007

ESTEQ is the first company to bring Right Hemisphere’s Enterprise Visual Product Communication and Collaboration Solutions to South African Manufacturers

ESTEQ Group (Pty) Ltd, the leading supplier of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Simulation and Testing solutions in South Africa, has signed a value-added reseller and systems integrator (VAR/SI) agreement with Right Hemisphere®, the leading provider of visual product communication and collaboration solutions.
With these solutions, ESTEQ will enable South African manufacturers to extend their product data management (PDM) information outside of engineering and into the rest of the organization. “Manufacturers in North America and Germany have already implemented Right Hemisphere’s software and realized tremendous value from getting their critical visual product information out of traditional engineering formats and into formats more commonly used and shared among non-engineers, like PDF, for example,” said ESTEQ Group’s Technology Director Clinton Stone. “It’s time to extend those same operational efficiencies to manufacturing concerns in South Africa and our seasoned PLM division is the best team to deliver them.”

ESTEQ Groups’ Engineering division will handle all Right Hemisphere software sales and the PLM division will manage the implementations in South Africa. With customers such as General Motors South Africa, Nissan, and Ford and over 12 years of experience in deploying and supporting successful PLM-related systems, ESTEQ Group is highly qualified to deliver Right Hemisphere’s advanced solutions.
