Upgrade takes product lifecycle management further
Dassault Systemes and IBM are releasing Version 5 Release 13 (V5R13) of their product lifecycle management (PLM) portfolio, comprising Catia, Enovia and Smarteam.
"By taking our business relationship to the next level of technical collaboration, CD-adapco will be able to work more closely with our RandD teams to enhance the integration, capabilities, and scalability of their solutions within the world's leading PLM environment".
"We share a common vision with Dassault Systemes of providing robust simulation solutions to designers and analysts through a collaborative PLM environment", states Dennis Nagy, VP of Marketing and Business Development, CD-adapco.
"DS' open CAA environment ensures that we are able to provide our common customers with advanced simulation technology to gain insight into product performance and deliver innovative products to market faster while lowering development costs".
As a CAA Software Partner, CD-adapco will leverage DS' CAA environment to extend and enhance the capabilities of its Star-Cat5 product for flow and thermal management integrated within Catia.
Simulation set-up and input/output requirements have been automated and integrated into Catia, enabling users across many industries, including automotive, aerospace, oil and gas, electronics, and pharmaceuticals to concentrate on evaluation of engineering results and optimisation of designs while taking full advantage of CD-adapco's advanced simulation technology.
CAA is DS' open middleware and development environment for PLM.
The CAA Software Community Program is dedicated to ISVs (independent software vendors) willing to develop, sell and support CAA-based applications, fully integrated with Catia, Simulia, Enovia and Delmia.
This collaboration results in the expansion of DS' 3D PLM solutions to cover the entire product lifecycle range, thus enabling mutual customers to take advantage of a larger set of products in response to their specific industrial needs.
