Refer to the Supplier policy section to download the current applicable policies. 

It depends on local specificities – minimum required forms are: completed supplier registration form, bank letter or bank statement, company registration document.

Dassault Systèmes policy requires a Purchase Order be secured prior to any goods or service delivery in most cases. Suppliers will receive  the purchase order or the specific system order number from Dassault Systèmes by email. They are requested, without exception, not to accept orders by telephone and not to deliver any material or begin a service before receiving it. Sending an invoice without a valid Purchase Order may result in delays in processes and payment.

Once the order has been fulfilled, soft-copy invoices should be sent electronically via email in PDF format to the correct Accounts Payable email address mentioned in the Purchase Order / email received to confirm Dassault Systèmes commitment.

For a timely processing, Supplier invoices must mention the following information:

• a unique invoice reference number
• the purchase order (or specific system order) number
• the name of Dassault Systèmes legal entity that issues the Purchase Order

Non-compliant invoices would be rejected and result in delays in invoice processing

Dassault Systèmes has standardized payment term subject to local specificities. Payment terms are documented on the purchase order. Standard payment method is Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) payment.

Once the invoice is matched with Dassault Systèmes Purchase Order and Order receipt, the payment is processed on the available weekly payment run after they fall due (according to payment terms).

Existing suppliers should ensure that data is up to date. Any changes to company information or bank details (address, VAT, email address, etc.) must be communicated with justification documents to your Dassault Systèmes contact point. 

Please inform Dassault Systèmes via our AP email address stated on our Purchase Order if you are victim of tentative of fraud which can affect your company and relationship cc your Key account Manager (if any) and your internal 3DS beneficiary.
