Purdue University and Dassault Systèmes establish digital enterprise labsSuresnes 05 October 2001 Dassault Systèmes will provide its software as well as technical support for a new digital enterprise laboratory in Purdue University's School of Technology.
The digital enterprise Center is a US $6 million applied-research facility located in the Knoy Hall of Technology on the university's West Lafayette campus. The center opened in June 2000 with one laboratory and now has four labs.
The Purdue center's goal is to produce graduates who are intimately familiar with state-of-the-practice information-technology solutions and can work on group projects that are brougth to the school through its corporate partnerships.
Dassault Systemes is providing software and technical support for a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) laboratory. PLM enables collaboration at various stages of the product life, such as new product design or design modification to address manufacturing issues or customer requests for modification.
PLM promises to reduce the time to market of new products. The Internet-based technology allows industry to share research and development information with its partners and people to collaborate regardless of their physical location.
ENOVIA Portal Solutions, together with CATIA, DELMIA, ENOVIA 3dCom and ENOVIA DMU Navigator deploy possible scenarios where the Dassault Systèmes solutions shows the strength of PLM and at the same time introduce the SmarTeam suite from SmarTeam Inc., to increase the flexibility of the center.
