Dassault Systèmes (DS) has announced that Bell Helicopter is using its V6 PLM platform to improve collaboration and decrease the amount of time it takes to bring a new helicopter to market.
As part of an effort to improve business processes and update systems across the company, Bell Helicopter is leveraging Dassault Systèmes' full range of brands, including ENOVIA V6, CATIA V6, DELMIA V6, 3DVIA V6, and SIMULIA V6.
Through its Business Systems Modernisation project, Bell Helicopter is consolidating its technology systems and upgrading outdated software in order to increase its manufacturing capacity, reduce time-to-market and enhance collaboration with business partners. Looking for maximum efficiency and ROI, Bell Helicopter chose Dassault Systèmes' V6 for its flexible PLM backbone and the large degree of out-of-the-box, specialized functionality for the aerospace industry.
“We sought a PLM solution that could facilitate collaboration across the extended supply chain, reduce unnecessary costs during the design and production process and increase innovation,” said Bennie Peek, CIO, Bell Helicopter. “This partnership with Dassault Systèmes enables us to meet increased global demand for our aircraft and create a single version of the truth for our product data.”
