Dassault Systemes showcases Digitalization for Aerospace, Defense and Space Ecosystem at Aero India 2021

Dassault Systèmes at the 13th edition of Aero India 2021 showcases technology solutions to Improve Supply Chain Collaboration, to Design for Flexible Manufacturing, to Manage Complex Systems and Accelerate Program Integration and to Deliver High Performance Operations. Experts from Dassault Systèmes will be present at booth numbers A6.6 and A6.8, to discuss how to bridge the gap between the virtual and real world to accelerate concept to operations by 50% through industry solution experiences based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

Today, supplier-created parts and content represents 50%-60% of the value of an aerospace system. Relentless price pressures are compelling aircraft manufacturers and suppliers to reinvent the way they work with the supply chain. The new model requires a closer partnership to improve visibility, on-time delivery and first-time quality. The “Program Excellence” industry solution experience enables companies to optimize their product strategy and reach a high level of efficiency in program execution. Companies can implement their digital transformation around governance, configuration, collaboration and analytics. The “Engineered to Fly” industry solution experience helps suppliers win more business and more efficiently deliver on time, on budget, on target. Best in class engineering, simulation and project tools delivered on a single platform can improve productivity up to 40% while reducing total cost of ownership by at least 15%.

Aerospace companies must integrate new technologies into ever-increasing complex aircraft that can meet passenger demands as well as operator cost and uptime targets. To drive down costs, companies must find efficiencies in how they conceptualize, design, manufacture, test, certify and support new aircraft. It requires a model-based and data-driven approach to drive significant process improvements to transform their ability to deliver on schedule, on cost, and on specification. Dassault Systèmes supports them in accelerating program maturity from concept to manufacturing while driving 40-60% of cost out. The “Winning Concept” industry solution experience increases success rates of new concepts and bid proposals by uniting the proposal authoring, concept alternatives definition and analysis trade process on a single business platform. The “Cleared To Operate” industry solution experience helps Aerospace & Defense programs test and certify on time and improve confidence between aviation authorities and their suppliers.

airlines make decisions on retiring models and reassess their fleet needs, aircraft production and aftermarket services will need to be fundamentally reassessed to account for long-term demand shifts. The “Co-Design to Target” industry solution experience improves program execution to meet cost, schedule and performance targets, avoid potential contract penalties and reduces engineering complexity. The “Ready for Rate” industry solution experience increases the efficiency of existing manufacturing operations, accelerates the ramp-up of new production lines, and enables future factory innovations.

It is critical for the aerospace industry’s resiliency and long-term development to address costs. To deliver high performance operations at optimized costs requires manufacturing execution optimization on the shop floor as well as services optimization for MRO. With the virtual twin, Dassault Systèmes’ dedicated industry solution experiences make it possible to achieve excellence at reduced costs. The “Build To Operate” industry solution experience provides the Manufacturing Operations Management capabilities needed to implement lean practices to monitor, control and validate all aspects of manufacturing with digital precision on a global scale.

At the event, Dassault Systèmes showcased how the 3DEXPERIENCE platform helps in collaborative innovation by developing new ways of working across teams. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform accelerates program maturity with digital continuity across engineering, manufacturing and business functions, drives flexible production by combining virtual planning and real operations for continuous improvement, and creates new business opportunities with the full potential and controlled investment of cloud solutions.
