"De effecten gaan echter veel verder dan ons aanvankelijke doel. We genieten namelijk wereldwijd een grotere zichtbaarheid en onze producten zijn toegankelijk in de ontwikkelingsfase van apparatuur. Zo hebben we een beter beeld van de kopers en de ontwerpers."
Serge Buechli,
Product manager bij LEMO

"De samenwerking met TraceParts dateert al van ongeveer 15 jaar geleden. We begonnen destijds met 2D voorstellingen van onze onderdelen en vanaf begin 2000 werken we al met 3D versies online. De voorstellingen in de online catalogi zijn heel aantrekkelijk, inclusief de kleurencombinaties van de onderdelen, en ontwerpers kunnen de door hen geselecteerde onderdelen in het native gegevensformaat van hun CAD systeem downloaden. We hebben geen klachten en stellen dit permanente partnerschap zeer op prijs."

ontwikkelingsmanager bij Ganter

"Door een aanbeveling van KiM hebben we TraceParts ontdekt, dat eveneens al onze gegevens op zijn portaal publiceert. Hierdoor kunnen we rechtstreeks via onze eigen website de miljoenen gebruikers van de TraceParts CAD bibliotheek en zijn partner portalen bereiken in een tamelijk vroeg stadium in het ontwerpproces. Dit is voor ons een belangrijke factor bij het verwerven van nieuwe klanten."

Onze campagnes vervullen ten volle hun rol van informatie en sales promotion door de snelle en directe benadering van onze doelgroep. Door deze wijze van communiceren kunnen bovendien vrijwel onmiddellijk de resultaten worden gemeten. Afgezien van de relevantie van de doelgroep hebben we kunnen constateren dat de gegevens die het mogelijk maken de verzendingen te filteren, voortdurend worden bijgewerkt. Het zou veel moeilijker en duurder zijn om de verschillende industriële sectoren te benaderen door middel van verticale marketing campagnes.

Marketing Directeur Europa bij de in Duitsland gevestigde dochteronderneming Objet GmbH

proved to be an expert partner during the seamless integration of our native
and neutral 3D CAD data into our new web site. The ideas and suggestions for
the implementation process demonstrated the comprehensive expertise that
TraceParts has acquired in this area over the years. Rapid access to all the
product models brings major benefits for us and our customers. TraceParts
has always focused on ensuring that our requirements were implemented
quickly and flexibly.»

Eric Mangeard,
Alema Site Manager |

"The more we use standardized products for the different machines, the faster and easier it is to troubleshoot machinery or configure them for new products. The TraceParts library is very rich and the easy search feature could lead to an explosion in the number of references used. In TraceParts, we have found a solution to reach our standardization objectives."
Stéphane Charvin,
Project manager in the Special Machines Department at Téfal |

"TraceParts is a serious company and its major development is a source of satisfaction for us, since it guarantees our offering added visibility.

"Our decision was based above all on technical criteria. TraceParts was the only supplier covering all the main market standards and formats. In addition, the quality of its catalogs and resulting success with CAD/CAM customers made it a vital partner."
William Jeanson,
heads the Data Project for the Technical Communication department of Industrial Machine & Process |
 |
"From a technical and educational point of view, it was the very good integration of their library with CATIA V5 that convinced us. [...] Furthermore, the TraceParts educational offering is original and well suited to the hard facts of the educational world. For example, it is vital for each student to have access to components on any machine or over the network from his or her personal computer without requiring an Internet connection."
Raphaël Montavon,
Teaching lecturer in specialist schools and is in charge of CAD at Haute Ecole Arc Ingénierie |
 |
"TraceParts is the only one that is capable of offering that type of service.

In fact, our biggest customers use TraceParts themselves"
Hervé GOMAS,
Manager for Marketing and R&D of Facom |

"The tools for monitoring the downloads were an innovation that we appreciated and use often. Moreover, we regularly use TraceParts press releases that they use to announce new products to their client base. In the beginning we had a technical request and the solution showed itself to be a true tool for sales and marketing. Like Siam, TraceParts knows how to innovate and we share the same values concerning service provided to the client, the same enthusiasm in our respective specialties. These are a good basis for a long-term partnership."
Françoise Pfister,
CEO of Siam Ringspann France |

"TraceParts has been able to partner with us while respecting our choices; we continue to benefit from its technical expertise and we benefit today from its international reputation. The presence of our equipment product line in their online library is an important addition to our public presence and fits perfectly within the NTN SNR group's geographic growth strategy. It actually improves the visibility of our brand and our products in Europe and beyond. We know that the TraceParts site is utilized and appreciated by our major customers and we regularly observe that it is a popular resource for business users all over the world who would like to be part of that group"
Axel Rocher,
Marketing manager for the industrial markets at SNR |

"Our components are particularly visible on the search engines thanks to efforts by marketing and TraceParts referencing and to frequent visits on their site. By not limiting the service provided to only technical aspects, TraceParts favors communication with its customers. We measure the importance of this effort and we appreciate the benefits daily. It therefore comes naturally to us to commercially exploit the download requests and that, no doubt, is part of our job!"
Damien Cardon-Dubois,
Technical Director for Norelem France |

"I'm very happy with the result. At first I had concerns about whether the handles could be depicted in a visually appealing way, but TraceParts did an excellent job and advised and supported us very well at all times. TraceParts always had a handle on everything."
Carsten Hennig,

 |
"There are two definite aspects in the service provided by TraceParts: the technical side, with the availability of CAD models and the marketing side with the visibility of our products. Both sides have met stated objectives. The reactivity of technical teams meets our expectations. The evolution of CSR is greatly linked to TraceParts' dedication and involvement."
Marcel Dubois,
General Manager for CSR |
 |
"TraceParts was able to demonstrate the superiority of its techniques in comparison to other companies that were consulted to simplify and provide models in the largest variety of CAD formats imaginable. Their team worked with our classic catalogs and our 3D models. Less than 6 months after beginning the actual project, nearly 8,000 items had been treated and put online. Also, our range's evolutions are taken into account very quickly."
Patrick Coulpin,
Marketing Manager at VIM |
 |
"We were completely satisfied with TraceParts' products and service for generating 2D models and there was an excellent relationship between our two companies. In addition, since we began working with TraceParts, they had acquired a notoriety that increased visibility for our products. Not only were we able to meet our customers' needs, we were also able to gain new ones."
Olivier Musseau,
Rabourdin Industrie's technical documentation manager |
 |
"TraceParts was able to prove its skills in providing quality models - even the most complex - as well as its ability to personalize its product according to our requirements. [...] The continuous addition of catalogues and associated tools as well as TraceParts' rigorous attentiveness to our specifications makes TraceParts a key element in our standardization policy and its success."
Jean-Claude Avrillon,

"The users desire both easy access and having the choice and quality of modeling in the native format of their CAD system. Therefore, we visited a few model downloading sites, taking the point of view of the user. We tested for accessibility and the relevance of the criteria, model reliability and the extent of the libraries. Moreover, it is easy to find out the references since it is sufficient to view the companies represented on the site. This initial step led us to consult TraceParts. The climate of confidence which was later established with the sales engineer and the seriousness of their offer did the rest."
Jean-Paul Coron,
Kinetic Systems CEO |
 |
" The choice of the service provider - today we speak without hesitation of partners - was rather simple: we questioned a few companies in the industrial sector who had confided their catalog creation to TraceParts. Their enthusiasm convinced us. A choice that we refer to without hesitating today, in as much as we had discovered a team with whom we had warm human contact and who clearly showed an undeniably serious attitude: respect for time schedules and technical quality. Those are exactly the values that our company puts forward. Finally, we liked the economic model and it fully responded to our quest for new markets."
Jean-Michel Stetten,
Boutet President |
 |
"It quickly became
very clear to us that we needed to respond to the
market's obvious demand so that we could continue
to offer our customers the best possible service.
So, early 2003, we began looking for a partner that
could help us to produce an online CAD catalog."
Ingrid Wiedemann,
Technical Documentation Manager at Trelleborg Sealing Solutions |

"Thanks to PowerParts, we were able to achieve our aim of offering a global service for our products. We weren't just going to rely on potential customers stumbling across INA by chance on the Internet. But the chances are good of someone accessing INA's website via the powerPARTS portal; so, we've found the ideal marketing multiplier in TraceParts."
Norbert Winkler,
E-Business Director at Schaeffler Goup |

"You could say that with the CAD download service we're in a win-win situation. Our customers are benefiting from shorter design times and so can cut their product development costs. On the other side, we've been able to reduce our internal process costs and expand our market position through enhanced customer service."
