Babcock collaborates with Dassault Systèmes to accelerate digital engineering
Digital Engineering with 3DEXPERIENCE
From through-life equipment and support programmes across shipbuilding, to submarine support, nuclear and aviation it will provide a management tool that enables:
- A digital thread – a seamless flow of data which provides a single source of truth across products throughout their entire engineering lifecycle.
- A Secure by Design platform – which has security integrated into its foundation to strengthen resilience and protect critical engineering data.
- A future-ready workforce – empowered by digital capabilities and underpinned by data and digital engineering skills.
Michael Ward, our Global Engineering Director, said: “This collaboration reinforces our commitment to investing in industry-leading technologies that will strengthen our sovereign capability whilst unlocking greater value from our deep engineering and technical expertise and intellectual property.
“For our customers, supply chain and SME ecosystem, they will see increased delivery and efficiencies in how we work, whilst accelerating innovation and delivering long-term competitive advantage.”
John Turnbull, Managing Director EURONORTH, Dassault Systèmes, welcomed the announcement saying: “The defence sector is undergoing significant transformation with new levels of complexity in a context of increasing sovereignty and resilience. Our 3DEXPERIENCE platform enables stakeholders to work together more effectively and streamline processes across design, operations, maintenance and training.”
As well as providing us with a central digital environment, the 3DEXPERIENCE will enable the creation of digital twins which engineers can use to simulate and validate systems in a truly collaborative environment, reducing risk, shortening development cycles and improving operational readiness across the business.
