Customer: Siemens AGConcept Targeting

• Challenge- Reduce cost exposure from design revisions

& production delays due to chassis failures• Solution

- Enabled collaboration & knowledge exchange between dispersed design locations

- Optimized concept targets through early validation of design

• Benefit- Minimized design revisions and associated

production delays- Reduced design cycle time & streamlined

the implementation of innovative projects

Customer: BMW AGProduct Validation & Innovation

• Challenge- First time Virtual Combination of Function

and Geometry for Electrical Department.- Reduce number of physical prototypes

• Solution- Bring together diversified team and

expertise- Synthesize more possibilities- Propagate and encourage communication

between departments

• Benefit- More tests and assure operability =

customer satisfaction- Saving time for waiting on prototypes and

using this time to investigate more variants- Saving prototype costs- Number of variants not limited by available

budget for prototypes

Customer : PSAInnovation Management Program Management• Challenge

- Meet car program deadlines by streamlining information flow between all team members

- Create & lead new market opportunities• Solution

- Common collaborative environment for everyone to share & contribute information freely to critical car program

- 400 people involved, including major tier 1 personnel- “Dynamic Taskflow” to connect people’s activities

without constraining processes (modifiable)• Benefit

- 10% productivity increase on total car program - 120 man years saved over 4 years

- Reduced time for decision making, validation, & communication by up to 20%

- Creation of a digital “think tank” involving all project members which translates more ideas into actual car program advantage

• Challenge- Assure vehicle is built according to specified

dimensions- Give feedback to design and manufacturing 22 months

earlier- Improve quality of measurement feedback to design

departments• Solution

- Virtual measurement process based on precise geometry anytime during the design process- Reproducible / automatic / fast / independent of

geometry source• Benefit

- Shortened product development cycle as a result of closer feedback loops

- Dramatically reduced costs through detection and correction of failures in earlier phases

- Reduced effort for physical prototypes

Customer : ASTRIUMInnovation ManagementProject Management• Challenge

- Ensure deadlines are met through involving specialized remote suppliers early in the design concept phase

- Reduce prototypes costs, manufacturing misunderstandings, & no. of meetings

- Decrease the Astrium to Supplier information/modificationloop from 7 days to 2 days

• Solution- Common collaborative environment for everyone to

access up-to-date design information- Automated tasks with standardized workflows

for OEM/supplier interactions- Support for low bandwidth connections

• Benefit- Optimize design earlier in development

cycle through early supplier involvement- Reduce time searching for information- Ensure that everyone has right

information at the right time

Customer : SOCATAInnovation ManagementFunctionnal Prototyping• Challenge

- Manufacturing people need accurate design information own by designers in order to manufacture first class aircraft metal andlaminates parts (Airbus, Lookeed, Dassault. Embraer, SOCATA).

- Design formation is remote and currently in heterogenousformats requiring format specific tools and skills.

- The goal is to optimize the design-to-manufacturing process while keeping low infrastructrue cost.

• Solution- Common collaborative environment for everyone to access up-to-

date heterogenous design information- Allow manufacturing people to extract first class design formation

freely and feed information back to designers.• Benefit

- Optimize the design-to-manufacturing process - Reduce time getting reliable design information (hours to min.)- Quality improvement in finished aircraft parts - Low infrastructure and deployment cost
