PTC Codebeamer Replaces Legacy System at Hamilton Medical

PTC reports that Hamilton Medical, a company focused on intelligent mechanical ventilation solutions, selected PTC’s Codebeamer Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) solution to replace its legacy ALM system and paper-based processes. PTC and Hamilton Medical, a long-term user of PTC’s Windchill Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution, have agreed to collaborate. 

Hamilton switched to Codebeamer for enhanced collaboration among engineering, risk management, quality, and verification and validation teams. The solution facilitates automated traceability and audit preparedness across product development. Together, Codebeamer and Windchill establish a unified product data foundation, linking requirements, testing, and release decisions for end-to-end traceability and visibility, the companies report.

The multi-year agreement enables both parties to work on the development of standardized PTC medical technology software capabilities and advancement of Codebeamer and Windchill integration. Hamilton Medical will contribute expertise in medical device development processes, methodologies, and tool usage. These insights will support PTC’s development of standards and its out-of-the-box ALM and PLM solutions to facilitate product development in alignment with Hamilton Medical’s Integrated Product Engineering (IPE) goals. 

“This collaboration positions us at the forefront of industry-specific software development,” says Jim Giger, director of Research and Development at Hamilton Medical. “Given the critical role our products play in patient care, our development processes must be both uncompromisingly rigorous and highly adaptable. PTC’s ALM solution empowers us to adhere to risk-centric development practices while retaining the flexibility to respond to evolving product and regulatory demands, ultimately supporting safe, scalable innovation across our portfolio.”
