'S-HERTOGENBOSCH, The Netherlands, Oct 29, 2008 - Siemens PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation Division and a leading global provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software and services, announced that Van Oord Dredging and Marine Contractors B.V., a marine contractor that works on worldwide dredge and water hydraulic projects, has standardized on Solid Edge software and Teamcenter Express software for its digital design and product data management respectively.

Solid Edge with synchronous technology is the core CAD component of the Velocity Series portfolio and incorporates Siemens PLM Software’s new breakthrough history-free, feature-based design technology. Teamcenter Express is the collaborative product data management (cPDM) component of the Velocity Series.

Van Oord uses Solid Edge 3D CAD system and Teamcenter Express PDM solution in its new shipbuilding division. These solutions enable automated engineering of specific parts for dredging installations. Van Oord will use Siemens PLM Software’s solutions to optimize the control of its product designs and speed the execution of modifications. Bosch Engineering B.V., a Siemens PLM Software Velocity Series reseller, will manage the implementation of the solutions for Van Oord.

“Siemens PLM Software’s Velocity Series products provide rapidly deployable, preconfigured PLM solutions that are based on industry best practices to help our global organization innovate faster,” said Peter Bunschoten, manager, Technical Department at Van Oord. “Siemens PLM Software’s solutions mean an improvement in the technical control of our ships. Teamcenter Express and Solid Edge provide the mechanical engineering solutions which allow Van Oord to effectively collaborate with our suppliers and customers.”

This is the second major Siemens PLM Software Velocity Series win in the dredging industry. Earlier this year the company announced an agreement with shipbuilder IHC Merwede B.V., another global provider of specialized dredging material and complex, custom-built offshore ships.

“This means that Siemens PLM Software Velocity Series is perfectly fit to fulfil the digital design needs in this industry”, says Edwin Severijn, vice president and managing director, Siemens PLM Software, Benelux. “We are proud to help two of the most renowned Dutch dredging firms improve and facilitate their shipbuilding processes.”
