GE Aviation Drives Innovation and Digital Continuity with Dassault Systèmes

• Developer of aerostructures is using 3DEXPERIENCE platform to
  develop digital thread across its business
• 3DEXPERIENCE platform delivers competitive approach to product
  development

VELIZY-VILLACOUBLAY, France–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Regulatory News:

Dassault
Systèmes (Paris:DSY) (Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY.PA) is enabling GE
Aviation to drive innovation and efficiency across the product
development lifecycle of aerostructures through the implementation of
its 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform is helping GE Aviation to develop a digital
thread to enable continuity and collaboration across the business. This
includes requirements definition, design, analysis, simulation,
manufacturing, qualification and supporting the development of new
manufacturing technologies and techniques.

“For GE Aviation Hamble, the implementation of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
supports our ongoing focus on developing innovative aerostructures for
the Aerospace industry,” said Paulo Mancilla, Executive Engineering
Leader, GE Aviation’s Hamble UK facility. “This enables us to use
techniques like digital 3D modelling from design through manufacturing
and qualification to create high performance aerostructures for the
aviation industry.”

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides intuitive 3D applications for product
design, analysis, manufacturing and data management in a digital
environment. It provides a single collaborative platform to define,
share, review, integrate, validate, execute and report, and offers the
opportunity to maximize business improvement through digital continuity
from concept to delivery.

“Weight, performance and cost continue to dominate the competitiveness
of developing and fabricating sophisticated and complex aerostructures
for the latest generation of aircraft,” said David Ziegler, Vice
President, Aerospace & Defense Industry, Dassault Systèmes. “As a global
leader in this field, GE Aviation is constantly innovating and has
recognized how the 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides critical technology
for this approach. We are very proud to be their partners in this
transformation.”

Key benefits of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for GE Aviation and its
customers include:

• Reduced cycle-times resulting from an increase in collaboration
  between engineering and supply chain functions; driven by a common
  user interface, which guarantees a unified experience and a shared
  digital reference that ensures each stakeholder is working on the
  latest information and in the relevant context. This further enables a
  model-based enterprise.
• Improved visibility and optimized response-times to customer requests,
  resulting from the ‘business intelligence’ applications which enable
  interrogation of real-time information to monitor performance.
• Increased productivity due to the data-centric rationale and the
  intuitive search capabilities, which simplify data management and
  promote efficient sharing of information across boundaries.
