Accelerating Market-Driven Innovations

With global demand for ships is at an all-time high, shipbuilding profits can be surprisingly low.  Many builders are caught between prices set at the beginning of a project and rapid spikes of material and fuel prices.  Growing worldwide capacity is driving construction prices lower and causing immense pressures from owners and operators.  Progressive naval architects, ship designers, shipyards and equipment suppliers are relying more and more on Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions to address these challenges.

 

Dassault Systèmes delivers Shipbuilding PLM Solutions for shipbuilders and their suppliers to accelerate the development of innovative products that have higher chances of market success.  Built on the same advanced technologies that have revolutionized the aerospace and automotive industries, our solutions help our customers advance the pursuit of innovation by integrating business process management with cutting-edge tools for design, engineering and manufacturing planning.

Organizations designing and building ships and ship components of all sizes - ranging from commercial ships (cruise liners, tankers, etc.), navy vessels (aircraft carriers, submarines, etc.), yachts and leisure boats - are relying on Dassault Systèmes' PLM solutions to produce better products and improve profitability.
