The Capitol Advantage The Capitol Group has a 60 year history of products and services supporting automotive industry OEM's and their suppliers worldwide. We are proud of the product innovation and evolution that consistently positions our company above the rest. Visual Confirmation, Workflow Control, and Change Management cannot be limited by a supplier community that is not direct connected to the OEM's they support. Capitol realizes this fact, driving the development of features within OEM/A that enable direct impact in these critical process steps without discouraging suppliers to become direct connected with the OEM's they support. Our ability to handle large data sets while maintaining performance objectives has been a core component since the introduction of OEM/A. We take very seriously the fact that this industry relies on the globalization of their products to drive down cost. Emerging markets provide the forefront of Capitol's focus in this evolving global development footprint. As such, OEM/A provides a reliable, secure, globally available, around the clock operational system that enables the progress of global product development and manufacturing activities that never sleep. Lastly, but certainly not least, our network and security systems architecture backbone is the best that technology can provide. Our Chicago data center maintains dedicated volumes for each customer's digital assets. All data is encrypted to 256 bit AES/EAL 4+ while resident in our data center. When the data needs to move, it is automatically encrypted for end to end HTTPS transport. Finally, these systems are mirrored and 100% redundant to ensure a zero downtime commitment to our customers.
