Implementation Investments

Snecma Virtual Platform Project Will be Based on Siemens PLM Software’s Teamcenter

Siemens PLM Software has received an order from Snecma, SAFRAN Group, a world-class aircraft and space engine manufacturer, for delivery and implementation of its Teamcenter® software.

Teamcenter, Siemens PLM software’s digital lifecycle management solution, has been selected by Snecma, following an extensive evaluation process conducted at its headquarters in France. Teamcenter will enable Snecma to increase global collaboration with partners and suppliers, thus enhancing its ability to better react to market demands and trends. The standardization of new-product-development practices will aid Snecma in reducing time to market. Each person involved in the product lifecycle process will now have access to a single source of information for products, processes and industrialization.

Snecma will deploy Teamcenter through three implementation phases over the next three years. When complete, the “Virtual Collaborative Platform” project (Plateau virtuel) at Snecma will include up to 2,000 Teamcenter users.

“The fact that an Aerospace & Defense industry leader like Snecma selected Teamcenter following an extensive evaluation process helps to validate Siemens PLM Software’s world-class technology,” said Helmuth Ludwig, president, Siemens PLM Software. “Siemens PLM Software has been selected as the preferred provider by numerous leading Aerospace & Defense companies worldwide, and this selection further strengthens our leadership in this industry.”
