Enabling Rapid Development of High-Quality Mechanical Products

## (CATIA Engineering Rich Text)Engineering is critical to Business Success

With significant global competition, it is hard for companies to bring new products to market that will stand out.

The world has gotten smaller, and with technology advancements, many small companies now have access to resources that used to be only available to the largest companies, but they need to make sure they are using the right technology to get that competitive edge. Meanwhile, large companies need to stay ahead to protect their market share. The key to bringing competitive products to market lies in engineering.

CATIA Engineering provides the platform, which enables engineers to create any type of 3D assembly, for a wide range of engineering processes.

## CATIA Engineering Roles

**CATIA Engineering** software products are packaged as **Roles** on the [**3D**EXPERIENCE platform](/3dexperience-platform "The 3DEXPERIENCE platform") to get you up to speed faster and work more efficiently with all needed applications available at your fingertips. Select a package that corresponds to your role in an organization.

## (CATIA Engineering Highlight for Modsim)How to optimize your design with MODeling & SIMulation ?

MODSIM unifies modeling and simulation on a common data model within a single user experience on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. The goal is to consider the whole product development process and break down barriers.

With products becoming more complex, the faster you can validate your product by simulation, the more time you’ll have to find the best innovative technical solution. MODSIM enables a simulation-empowered shift-left strategy that pulls verification and validation upfront in the concept phase of the design. The design engineer can investigate multiple design options and select the one closest to the requirement specification. Engineering decisions are facilitated by visualizing physical simulation variants of multiple 3D model alternatives. By using the so-called Design Of Experience process, the design engineer reduces the risk of late-stage failures and reworks.

 It's easier to do things like IP control with CATIA Product Structure: being able to give someone an assembly and then they can work in context within the assembly.
