# 3DEXPERIENCE platform for Industry Users **Transform your ideas into sustainable products and experiences** One platform, endless possibilities The **3D**EXPERIENCE is a business and innovation platform that provides organizations with a holistic, real-time vision of their business activity and ecosystem. **It connects people, ideas, data and solutions in a single collaborative environment** empowering businesses – from startups to large enterprises, to innovate, produce and trade in entirely new ways. The platform acts as a **single version of the truth** to anchor outcome-based processes and capture all activities in one place. It securely connects individuals, teams, departments and external collaborators working together to transform ideas into innovative products, services and experiences.

By connecting all disciplines, the platform acts as the single version of the truth required to transform ideas into innovative products and experiences. **It streamlines collaboration and reduces the time between the concept phase and the development of prototype**, thus shorten the time to market for your products, services and experiences. [3dexperience-platform-shorter-time-to-market](/media/6738) Collaboration More Holistic Collaboration The platform digitally connects all participants to the innovation process with secure, real-time collaboration across all disciplines. By sharing a common infrastructure, **it enables everyone to share ideas, plan and work using a common language and product definition**. Individuals working remotely or teams not previously involved in the development cycle can easily contribute to the innovation process. This holistic way of approaching work – and more specifically innovation – promotes collaboration and boosts transparency. [3dexperience-platform-industry-user-collaboration](/media/6739) Traceability Greater Traceability The platform provides better visibility into processes and projects with traceability of changes and decisions. By combining design, engineering, manufacturing and project management, **the 3DEXPERIENCE platform offers a single integrated view to manage projects and processes in real time**. This single digital representation allows anyone to visualize the status of a project at any given time and quickly access all project information. [3dexperience-platform-industry-user-traceability](/media/6740) Experimentation Faster Experimentation The platform provides the ability to create virtual twin experiences that add knowledge and know-how in one continuous cycle while eliminating the gap between experimentation and learning. Using virtual twins, **the 3DEXPERIENCE platform allows for realistic test scenarios in a fraction of the time it would take in the physical world and delivers the best combinations given the desired outcome**. Stakeholders continuously experiment, derive knowledge by exploring all possibilities and scenarios. [3dexperience-platform-industry-user-experimentation](/media/6741) Know-how Know-how Sharing **A unified environment shared with all stakeholders encourages them to pool their expertise and share ideas more freely**. Gathering and making available information on past projects such as design libraries, project templates and quality profiles promote the development of best practices. This leads to better products and services. It helps young designers, engineers and professionals entering the workforce accelerate the acquisition of industry knowledge.
