Diehl Aircabin Selects Teamcenter to Help Optimize Processes, Enhance Collaboration and Boost Innovation

Siemens PLM Software announced that Diehl Aircabin, one of the leading developers and manufacturers of cabin interiors and system elements for the international aircraft industry, selected Teamcenter® software to help optimize processes, enhance collaboration and boost innovation.

Diehl Aircabin, designs, develops and manufactures cabin modules, crew rest compartments and air distribution systems for the civil aircraft industry, including the new wide-body Airbus® A350 aircraft. Up until 2008, Diehl Aircabin was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Airbus and is now one of the major First Tier Suppliers for aircraft manufacturers.

Diehl Aircabin selected Teamcenter, Siemens PLM Software’s digital lifecycle management portfolio, following an extensive evaluation process which included a detailed presentation of the cost-benefit analysis and intensive consideration and calculation of the return on investment (ROI). Teamcenter was selected because Diehl Aircabin was convinced of its broad functional range including its ability to more easily configure and visualize complex processes and its open architecture that enhances collaboration and opens the way to an end-to-end PLM strategy. The company aims to utilize these capabilities to optimize its engineering processes and strengthen cooperation with international partners and customers.

"Siemens PLM Software’s Teamcenter portfolio, will help optimize our engineering process topography,” said Markus Marschall, CFO, Diehl Aircabin. "Visualizing all engineering processes in Teamcenter, this system will give us complete control over our complex engineering environments. We will also benefit from Siemens PLM Software’s longstanding expertise and PLM market leadership in the aerospace and defense industry.”

"The selection of Teamcenter by a leading aviation and space company such as Diehl Aircabin further validates the breadth and depth of our solution and the fit of our technology," said Martien Merks, senior vice president and managing director, Germany, Siemens PLM Software. "This also continues a trend that strengthens our position as a preferred PLM supplier to the aerospace and defense industry."
