Aviation Leader Selects 3DEXPERIENCE for Product Life Cycle Management

Pratt & Whitney Canada announced it will use 3DEXPERIENCE for the first phase of its PLM development.

To move Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) through the first phase of their new product lifecycle management (PLM) development, they chose the PLM and 3D design solution 3DEXPERIENCE.

Phase one of P&WC’s plan is to improve their process planning, operations, and management. To that end, P&WC benchmark tested various solutions, eventually settling on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and its ENOVIA applications. Key to this decision was PW&C’s partnership with Dassault Systèmes as well as 3DEXPERIENCE’s inclusion of SAP and Microsoft Dynamics.

P&WC’s VP, Walter Di Bartolomeo, notes that “in the end, this is about transforming our business and improving our customers’ experience… Our goal is to ensure the highest quality, best service cost, and overall product value for those customers. Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform fits perfectly into that vision.”

P&WC says that the improvements granted by the ENOVIA application should allow them to reinvest in new products and services. While in terms of PLM, the fact that 3DEXPERIENCE users throughout an organization can now access data from all bundled applications should prove to be a big benefit.

Don’t expect P&WC to part ways with 3DEXPERIENCE anytime soon either, as Dassault Systèmes has already committed to helping P&WC though all of their PLM phases.
