DCNS
will deploy the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to manage the entire lifecycle
of its products, from new generation submarines to frigates, patrol
vessels, aircraft carriers and landing platform docks (LPDs). From concept
through engineering, to build, maintain and operations services for
its customers, DCNS’s transformation will improve operational
performance and competitive edge on a global scale.
The design and engineering of high-performing naval defense solutions
require a seamless integration of complex systems and infrastructure
such as nuclear and conventional propulsion systems, radars, missiles
and communications materials. End-users in all disciplines must rely
on access to accurate, advanced and up-to-date information to make informed
decisions.
DCNS, whose naval systems are recognized worldwide for their operational,
innovative multi-mission capabilities, must manage extreme complexity
and high-level integration to provide its clients, industrial systems
and equipment partners, and supply chain with the most modern cooperation
tools and digital interface. Adopting marine and offshore industry solution
experiences based on one common 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides the major
catalyst to increase capacity and flexibility as well as the most competitive
and efficient solutions.
“Agility—the capacity to provide timely, reliable and efficient
answers to our clients’ demands while insuring world-class system
integration and operational, cost-effective lifecycle solutions—is
a significant competitive advantage,” said Herve Guillou,
President and Chief Executive Officer, DCNS. “Our cooperation
with Dassault Systèmes and their transformational marine solutions
provide a practical roadmap to achieve our ambitious goals from now
on.”
“The marine and offshore industry at large is going through
a new dynamic of innovation as the open seas are becoming more strategic
than ever. The DCNS decision to adopt the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to create
a virtual twin of their products across all lifecycles will set a new
level of performance in the naval sector,” said Bernard Charlès,
President and CEO, Dassault Systèmes. “Our partnership
with DCNS echoes our recent announcement with the world leader in cruise
vessels Meyer Werft. Together we are inventing and putting in operation
marine and offshore platforms that illustrate the industry of the future
in a sector which calls for highly integrated systems to deliver unique
experiences to its clients.” |
