In an effort to enhance customer's choices and options when designing PXI systems, Geotest- Marvin Test Systems, a global producer of PXI and PC-Based test equipment and test solutions, and Pickering Interfaces, an innovative company providing in signal switching and conditioning, have announced that they are embarking on a Strategic Alliance programme.
An initial element of this programme has been the creation of a joint web site, www.PXI4test.com designed to educate ATE users about the broad range of test products offered by both companies and to help users choose the best products for their application. The Alliance combines Geotest's expertise in Digital test, system integration and ATE software with the unmatched breadth of Pickering's catalog of PXI Switching and Signal Conditioning products.
Loofie Gutterman, President of Geotest-Marvin Test Systems said that "the Alliance will help customers achieve their goal of developing high-performance, cost-effective PXI systems by offering a complete range of industry-leading products from multiple vendors using a single web site" .
Keith Moore, Managing Director of Pickering Interfaces added "Our Alliance is all about simplifying our customer's research and providing a 'one-stop shopping experience'. PXI4test.com provides access to products, PXI-related web sites, and other tools to educate customers to the broad range of applications supported by PXI".
In addition to the website, Geotest and Pickering share common sales channels in much of the US, Asia, and Europe, simplifying the user's selection and procurement process for PXI products. Educational programs will also be available on the web and via regional seminars.
