Logility, Inc. a leader in supply chain innovation powering the sustainable and resilient enterprise, is working with Bondi Sands, the world’s number one self-tanning brand, to support its global expansion with best-in-class supply chain planning. Today, the Australian-born and sustainability-focused brand is successfully leveraging the Logility® Digital Supply Chain Platform to achieve more transparency, optimization and alignment across its expanding network.  Launched in Australia in 2012, Bondi Sands has progressively grown in popularity, becoming the continent’s largest manufacturer of tanning goods and expanding its reef-friendly products into markets across New Zealand, the U.K., Europe and the U.S. Amid this rapid global expansion, the company was feeling stretched by inefficient, manual supply chain processes and a lack of visibility into its network operations and performance. To enhance its planning capabilities and drive profitability, the growing brand turned to Logility.  “To meet the rising demand of our loyal consumers, it’s critical for Bondi Sands

Dassault Systèmes, McPhy Energy and Visiativ are collaborating to drive the green energy transition, by enabling McPhy to increase the competitiveness of its low-carbon hydrogen production and distribution equipment, and confirm its role as a key partner for the hydrogen market. The three leaders in their fields have teamed up for McPhy’s deployment of Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud to optimize the performance of its equipment as well as the processes and tools used across its development, engineering and production centers in France, Germany and Italy. McPhy – a long-time SOLIDWORKS customer – chose to move to a collaborative business platform deployed by the Visiativ team. This would deliver the collaborative design and product life cycle management capabilities to support its growth strategy as it scales up its business, in particular with the preparation for its new Gigafactory in France in 2024. “The Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE platform deployed by Visiativ

Oracle and Tata Motors announced that they have migrated the automotive giant’s entire Dealer Management System (DMS) to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The migration of this system to OCI will help boost the operational efficiencies of Tata Motors with deeper business insights, greater security, increased flexibility, and cost optimization. The Dealer Management System, which serves 60,000 users, supports Tata Motors’ pre-sales, sales, and after-sales market touchpoints across all segments of passenger and commercial vehicles. With the modernization of its Dealer Management System, the organisation is able to more effectively monitor sales performance and improve collaboration across its dealer network. Some of the key benefits include multifold enhancement in data reporting that allows the company to generate many more records per second and faster execution of data integration with OCI. Tata Motors dealers are also able to gain access to information in seconds, enabling a significant reduction in response time. Additionally, functioning on OCI will

CareAR, A Xerox Company and service experience management (SXM) market leader, announced the availability of CareAR® Experience Builder, a new visual augmented reality and AI based design tool that enables anyone to create self-guided instructional experiences at scale. With a no-code, drag-and-drop interface, organizations can now rapidly design and deploy intelligent and immersive self-guided instructional experiences for field technicians, employees, or customers viewed on standard mobile devices or wearables. Everyone is instantly empowered anytime with expertise and “know-how” to perform heightened functions and independently complete tickets and tasks faster. Self-service instructional experiences can seamlessly be added to level-up any service management workflow, product offering or asset ranging across industries and B2B or B2C use cases, from maintenance, inspection, and repair to manuals, unboxing, set-up guides, tutorials, and frequent how-to’s. Through a digital and visual design, instructional experiences are extremely intuitive and incorporate 2D content such as video along with CareAR’s patented 3D

Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division announced that its Adams Real Time multibody dynamics simulation software has been validated for operation on VI-grade Driving Simulators, enabling carmakers and tier one automotive suppliers to develop safe and desirable driver experiences efficiently, and without physical prototyping. The automotive industry is under constant pressure to address rapidly evolving market demands with resource-constrained engineering environments. Rapid product development timelines are compounded by shrinking physical prototype budgets that necessitate greater use of simulation. Automotive engineers rely on Adams to build their virtual vehicle prototypes and its Adams Real Time Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) capabilities to bridge the gap with physical tests. The high-fidelity simulations they develop are used to evaluate their engineering decisions against ride, handling and durability targets to produce safe and comfortable cars. A leading provider of driving simulator technology, VI-grade helps engineers accelerate automotive innovation by enabling physical testing of Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) models, without the need to
