Oticon Medical selects aras to build scalable digital product foundation. Aras Medical Device Accelerator will support product governance, regulatory compliance, and audit readiness within a SaaS-based PLM environment. Andover, MA - october 15, 2026. Aras, a leading provider of digital thread solutions for product lifecycle management (PLM) and engineering AI, today announced that Oticon Medical, a leader in bone anchored hearing solutions has selected Aras Innovator(R) as its new PLM solution. The implementation will establish a product-centric digital foundation that brings greater control and traceability to product information while supporting the rigorous regulatory requirements of the medical device industry. Oticon Medical continues to advance its bone conduction hearing portfolio with solutions including the Sentio(TM) System, an active transcutaneous hearing system that combines an implant placed under the skin with a sound processor held over the implant by magnets. The company is establishing a new SaaS-based PLM environment to better manage increasingly complex product and lifecycle data. Aras was selected for its proven experience in the medical device industry and will replace Oticon Medical's legacy document management and PLM systems. The Aras Medical Device Accelerator will provide built-in capabilities for design control, risk management, and quality processes, embedding regulatory compliance into everyday product development and supporting audit readiness. "How we manage product data is fundamental to our ability to operate efficiently and meet the demands of a highly regulated industry," said Christer Johansson, Director Product Care at Oticon Medical. "With Aras Innovator, we can move toward a more product-centric way of working that gives our teams greater consistency and confidence in the information they rely on." Aras Innovator will connect product information across Oticon Medical's enterprise environment, reducing manual handoffs between systems and improving data consistency. Teams will also gain greater visibility into product changes and their impact throughout the lifecycle, strengthening change control and cross-functional collaboration. As part of the implementation, relevant product data and documents from Oticon Medical's legacy systems will be migrated to Aras Innovator, preserving access to historical information while enabling the company to retire those systems. "For medical device manufacturers, effective product lifecycle management goes beyond managing data. It is about creating the structure needed to support the many teams and processes involved in bringing highly regulated products to market," said Leon Lauritsen, CEO of Aras. "Oticon Medical is creating a more unified way of working across the organization, breaking down barriers between disciplines while maintaining the rigor the industry demands." The initial implementation will focus on document management, change control, and product development. Over time, Oticon Medical plans to expand the use of Aras Innovator to support and connect more core processes across the organization.

Aras adds PLM accelerator for semiconductor workflows. The Aras Innovator extension includes templates for IP management, stage-gate governance and manufacturing process planning. Aras has announced a new industry accelerator designed to support PLM strategies for semiconductor manufacturing and design organizations. The solution extends Aras Innovator with preconfigured application templates for semiconductor business processes, including stage-gate program governance, IP management and reuse and manufacturing process planning. Semiconductor manufacturing and design organizations are working to manage complexity across design, manufacturing and the product lifecycle. Semiconductor PLM solutions built on Aras Innovator provide a connected and traceable model for product information, supporting decision-making and visibility into the downstream effects of change. The industry accelerator includes three semiconductor-specific application templates that can be deployed individually or together: * Stage-gate program portfolio management: Connects program milestones with product, manufacturing, supplier, quality and compliance information to support lifecycle decisions. * IP management: Manages semiconductor IP as governed, reusable assets with traceability across products, licensing, export controls and engineering change. * Manufacturing process & artifact management: Extends product lifecycle information into manufacturing by managing process plans, manufacturing artifacts, work instructions, qualification evidence and manufacturing readiness alongside product information. These semiconductor-specific applications complement Aras Innovator's standard library of application templates, including product engineering, change management, supplier collaboration, compliance, simulation product data management and quality management. As organizations adopt AI for engineering workflows, connected and governed product information within a digital thread framework is becoming more important. This solution connects lifecycle information across engineering, manufacturing, suppliers, compliance and change to provide a governed data foundation for AI-driven engineering in semiconductor manufacturing. Aras will showcase its semiconductor solution during DAC 2026, held July 26-29 in Long Beach, California. Visit Aras at Booth #843 to learn more.
