System engineering and software design is a crucial aspect of Systems Development Lifecycle. In the manufacturing sector, even today, some industries follow the traditional approach to system engineering and software design. However, as it does not provide a holistic view of product development, there is a possibility of errors during manufacturing process. To address complexities, IBM’s Product Line Engineering (PLE) is designed to help engineers manage the cost and effort of customizing product designs.

Under the Rational Systems and Software Engineering Platform of IBM, Product Line Engineering (PLE) has been introduced recently to ease the complexities involved in Product Development Lifecycle. In other words, IBM Rational Suite provides end to end tractability across the entire lifecycle spectrum, leading to better efficiency in developing products.

Although IBM Rational Suite offers numerous benefits, organizations need a partner who is capable of extending the capabilities of IBM’s Solutions and helping customers fulfill their specific business goals. Pune based Datamato Technologies leverages IBM’s Rational Systems and Software Engineering Platform - Product Line Engineering, to enable enterprises to oversee a holistic view of product development at all stages of manufacturing. “We have developed a unique combination of IBM Software and IT processes in System Engineering which help our end client have advantage of investment in IBM Portfolio,” explains Sachin Londhe, Managing Director at Datamato Technologies.

Datamato works as a team which builds end-to-end technology solutions and services in IBM Rational Tools mainly for Application Lifecycle Management. “IBM rewarded Datamato for its autonomous work in IBM Rational Technology Sales and Consulting. This encouraged Datamato team to be more focused on IBM Rational tools and deliver true client value and support to IBM clients,” adds Sachin. The company takes pride in its highly technical skills and IBM center of excellence that provides software consulting, deployment and support services to end customers on IBM Rational Tools. “As we have carved a niche in delivering IBM Product Line Engineering solution, customers can easily increase the value of IBM softwares in their environment in terms of license utilization, efficiency and ROI,” points out Sachin.

Datamato follows a planned flowchart while offering service to clients and changes the strategy when required. “We develop the right flowchart for monitoring the results of clients, and then reinforce it with effective forecasting, lead generation, back-office technology, support and service,” Sachin adds.

Having strong partnership with IBM and being a part of its Beta Programs, Datamato also enjoys the opportunity to suggest feedback for the upcoming releases of IBM ALM applications. Sachin tells that Datamato is expanding its services of IBM Rational Application Lifecycle Management space. In the near future, Datamato aims to continue focusing on IBM technology mainly in System Engineering and Cloud Offering for engineering and manufacturing industries in Application, and expanding its footprint in India as well as globally, as a strong IBM partner in using its rational tools.
