Verification Management

For commercial aircraft development and certification and military development and qualification, increasing global competition puts contractors under pressure to win new orders and to deliver on time and at cost. Aerospace and defense companies must also demonstrate, in an auditable and efficient manner, that program requirements are achieved through successful test definition, simulation, planning, and execution.
Successful product launches and customer acceptance require manufacturers to verify that product requirements have been fulfilled throughout the design and development of the product.
PLM solution provides a unique set of tools and processes to dramatically change the way product verification is planned, executed and managed. Our solution for verification management allows you to achieve Program Execution Excellence and effectively deliver consistent execution with customers and suppliers. It provides the ability to manage requirements, plan and schedule verification activities, perform CAE analysis, configure and manage test articles and confirm requirement compliance.
With the ability to reuse verification procedures and results, verification management helps reduce costs, improve product quality, and deliver programs on time and on budget. Execute programs on schedule and on budget by providing visibility and closed-loop requirement traceability into all activities of the verification process to confirm requirements compliance.

Product Realization

To ensure program excellence, aerospace and defense companies should involve manufacturing at every stage, starting with the bid. The ability to fully understand the manufacturing implications of multiple design alternatives is critical to creating winning bids. In addition, winning bids are typically ones that demonstrate that manufacturing capabilities exist for building the product as per the requirements. Once a program is underway, the early involvement of manufacturing engineering brings the consideration of manufacturing requirements into the design process, which can help control unit costs, improve production rates and guide facilities planning. Early manufacturing involvement can also reduce the number of program changes, ensure a smooth transition from development to production, and provide accurate planning for on-time program launch.
PLM Solution offer a closed loop process-driven approach involving five steps starting with Concept to Build, going on to Design to Build, Plan to Build, Build to Deliver and completing with Deliver to Learn. Our solution does this by digitalizing the entire manufacturing process, and enabling you to create “Digital Twins” of the product and production facilities, making it possible to simulate production processes for aerospace systems early in the product cycle and delivering all of the benefits of early and on-going manufacturing involvement

Engineering Data Management

Most segments of the aerospace and defense industry are expected to experience continued growth for the foreseeable future. However, the challenge today, whether it is a commercial program or a government contract, is to deliver a product that meets all technical and performance requirements at cost and on schedule. This challenges OEMs and their suppliers to continuously transform their extended supply chains to optimize total productivity while maintaining a highly dynamic and virtual work force.
To help meet these challenges, we offer a multi-disciplinary approach to aerospace and defense engineering lifecycle management that leverages integrated requirements management, secure supplier collaboration and an engineering management platform that combines mechanical, electronic, software and simulation data into a single collaborative environment. This approach enables the intelligent management, sharing and synchronization of data across product configurations, design domains and organizational functions while providing industry-leading performance and platform scalability.

Aircraft Performance Engineering

Modern air framers are faced with extraordinary levels of systems and structural complexity. Electrification, fuel efficiency, system integration, new structures, and aerodynamic configurations are driving the industry. Meeting the performance engineering challenges of modern aircraft design requires a new digital strategy, failing which will lead to program delays, redesigns, compromised performance, and ballooning budget and delivery time.

With accurate digitalization strategies, engineering groups are achieving better designs early in the design process and eliminating costly issues later in the development cycle. Our solution portfolio provides tools to help build scalable aircraft digital twins in support of mission critical performances goals from structures, aerodynamics, systems performance, thermal management, to verification and certification management.

PLM Solution enable aircraft organizations to analyze virtually all aircraft performance aspects in a unique scalable way - from individual components to a fully integrated aircraft, from concept to certification, covering multiple physics, and addressing functional and detailed behavioral levels. These Product Digital Twins make it possible to find innovative engineering solutions that maximize aircraft performance faster and at lower costs.

Assembly Manufacturing Engineering

The competitive pressures on aerospace and defense companies can result in reduced profit margins, especially when companies are not able to detect errors in manufacturing processes until production is underway, when problems are the mostly costly to fix. To avoid this, the industry is increasingly turning to digitalization, which allows different manufacturing scenarios to be simulated in software, problems to be found when they are relatively easy to fix, and operations to be optimized. 

Although stand-alone digital solutions have been available for years, our solution allows digitalization of the entire manufacturing process. This comprehensive approach brings a number of new advantages. It links the engineering bill-of-material to the manufacturing bill-of-material to the bill-of-process to accurately generate the manufacturing process sequence, product and material consumption, tool usage, time estimates, inspection planning, and more. It lets manufacturers see the impact of design changes on manufacturing operations, and consider all manufacturing-related constraints during the early stages of product development, when changes that can reduce manufacturing costs are possible. It enables the creation of very visual, detailed electronic work instructions (EWIs) that are less prone to misinterpretation compared to paper-based instructions. Deploy our comprehensive digitalization solution to reduce rework costs, maximize productivity and increase profitability.
