Snecma Virtual Platform Project Will Be Based On Siemens PLM Software’s Teamcenter

New Delhi, December 10, 2008 – Siemens PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation Division and a leading global provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software and services, has received an order from Snecma, SAFRAN Group, a world-class aircraft and space engine manufacturer, for delivery and implementation of its Teamcenter® software, the world’s most widely used PLM portfolio.
Teamcenter, Siemens PLM software’s digital lifecycle management solution, has been selected by Snecma, following an extensive evaluation process conducted at its headquarters in France. Teamcenter will enable Snecma to increase global collaboration with partners and suppliers, thus enhancing its ability to better react to market demands and trends. The standardization of new-product-development practices will aid Snecma in reducing time to market. Each person involved in the product lifecycle process will now have access to a single source of information for products, processes and industrialization.
Snecma will deploy Teamcenter through three implementation phases over the next three years. When complete, the “Virtual Collaborative Platform” project (Plateau virtuel) at Snecma will include up to 2,000 Teamcenter users.
“The fact that an Aerospace & Defense industry leader like Snecma selected Teamcenter following an extensive evaluation process helps to validate Siemens PLM Software’s world-class technology,” said Helmuth Ludwig, president, Siemens PLM Software. “Siemens PLM Software has been selected as the preferred provider by numerous leading Aerospace & Defense companies worldwide, and this selection further strengthens our leadership in this industry.”
Teamcenter powers innovation and productivity by connecting people and processes with a single source of product and process knowledge. The comprehensive Teamcenter portfolio of proven digital lifecycle management solutions is built on an open PLM foundation to power end-to-end PLM. The selection of Teamcenter by Snecma reinforces Siemens PLM Software’s world leadership in the Aerospace & Defense industry and adds another leading company to its existing customer base.
