Procter & Gamble to Implement SIMULIA SLM
PARIS,
France and PROVIDENCE, R.I., Mar 19, 2009 - Dassault Systems (DS) (Euronext
Paris: #13065, DSY.PA), a world leader in 3D and Product Lifecycle Management
(PLM) solutions, today announced that Procter & Gamble Company (P&G), the
world’s largest consumer goods company, has selected SIMULIA SLM as their
simulation lifecycle management solution to support P&G’s modeling & simulation
strategy.
The announcement evolves the long-standing business relationship in the
simulation domain from one of solution provider into a strategic,
collaborative partnership. By working closely with SIMULIA, P&G will define
critical SLM requirements and identify out-of-the-box capabilities that will
be incorporated into the general SIMULIA SLM solution and adopted globally
within P&G.
“P&G shares a common vision with SIMULIA regarding the democratization of
predictive simulation,” said Tom Lange, Director, Corporate R&D Modeling and
Simulation, Procter & Gamble. “It is our goal to make the benefits of realistic
simulation available to a broader range of users than previously possible.
SIMULIA SLM will help our global teams accelerate innovation by providing access
to simulation tools, validated processes and corporate knowledge bases
throughout the product lifecycle.”
Based on Dassault Systems’ V6 platform, the online collaborative environment
for PLM 2.0, SIMULIA SLM enables P&G to capture, share and automate the
execution of approved simulation methods, improve traceability of simulation
data, and accelerate decision-making while securing valuable intellectual
property.
“We are pleased to have established a strategic relationship with Dassault
Systems and its SIMULIA brand to further define the robust, feature-rich
solution for simulation lifecycle management at P&G,” stated Andrea Berger,
Associate Director, Information Technology, GBS, Procter & Gamble.
“Incorporating our simulation processes, applications and data into a managed
and controlled environment is a critical element to our success. We are
confident SIMULIA SLM will provide P&G the best simulation data and process
management foundation that fully supports our modeling & simulation strategy and
seamlessly integrates into our broader ENOVIA-based PLM environment.”
“As an innovative leader in the consumer packaged goods industry, P&G
continues to set the standard for product development,” stated Scott Berkey,
CEO, SIMULIA. “The partnership with SIMULIA will help the company develop better
products and test them more efficiently—ultimately lowering costs and
accelerating delivery of innovative products to consumers.”
The selection of SIMULIA SLM reinforces P&G’s recently announced commitment
to leveraging Dassault Systems’ V6 technology. By integrating its existing
systems with ENOVIA’s Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) Accelerator™ for Global
Specification Management, P&G will be able to better manage products spanning
multiple brands and markets.
