"I used to make my models by myself using my own code, but that would take weeks to prepare the mesh, make the program, and finally finish a simulation. Plus, the post-processing and visualization were not very graphical or pretty."

"One of our biggest challenges was to enable people with varying skills and expertise from diverse backgrounds, in different locations to work smoothly together."

"Dassault Systèmes PLM, including CATIA, ENOVIA SmarTeam and DELMIA, is an important part of our winthrough-engineering strategy."

"Initially, we thought the 3DEXPERIENCE platform was for large companies, but we were pleasantly surprised by the cloud-based immediate access and how flexible and easy it is to learn and deploy. Now that we’ve tasted its intuitiveness, versatility and power, we are glad we made this move."

"With the project management tools, we can plan each company’s tasks and enable all participants to provide feedback online in real time. Stakeholders are automatically notified by the system when they have an action and we use Gantt diagrams to visually represent the status of the different activities, which easily …

"Now we automate repetitive tasks and, with just one tool, we can deliver production tools that are of excellent quality, on time, to our various customers.”

“Using simulation to predict that weight and stiffness ahead of time reduced the number of make-andbreak cycles necessary to get where we needed to be.”

"Jay realized the need to capture true loading of his bike frames in order to drive realistic simulation that matched the real world. True-Load was a tool that could provide a clean, complete solution to meet those needs."

“In the past we were only able to update drawing sets once a week at most, a situation that is no longer up-to-date. Now, the manufacturing division can access the most recent data online.”

"We needed a management system to run CATIA on a more professional level. After benchmarking several PDM systems, we opted for ENOVIA SmarTeam because it’s the best system for our needs, especially in areas involving product development."

"Thanks to our digital mock-up approach, design engineers need to make fewer physical prototypes and can verify, at minimal cost, whether special customer requests are feasible."

"We generate the technical documentation directly from the CATIA files using 3DVIA Composer, which saves us a lot of time."

"The use of Dassault Systèmes PLM has greatly aided the ULTra project by providing a flexible, technically and economically viable tool to deliver advanced transport solutions.”

"We chose the 3DEXPERIENCE platform because we believed it would allow us to do a better job integrating people and ideas, starting at the conceptual stage of product design."

“We focus on our customer to determine what’s important to them. Can our airplanes be a differentiator? Can we de-commoditize them in a way that adds value?”
