Dassault Systemes Introduces Aerospace Supplier Collaborative Hub

By DE Editors

Dassault Systemes (Paris, France) recently announced the availability of Aerospace Supplier Collaborative Hub (ASCH), a business process accelerator (BPA) for aerospace risk-sharing partners and suppliers who hold program design responsibilities. 

The BPA is based on ENOVIA SmarTeam’s collaborative product data management platform and embedded within CATIA PLM Express. ASCH has mapped business processes, whereby designers can check compliance with industry standards throughout the supply chain.

“With tight program deadlines, designers must be able to launch the design process in a format that seamlessly communicates with OEMs’ systems and can pull down the right component information from master 3D data sets,” said Stephen Shibel, director of aerospace industry solutions for Dassault Systemes. This avoids the possibility of designers integrating out-of-date or no longer-compliant parts and then having to rework designs.

The BPA is designed to help smaller sized businesses remain current, using a scaleable solution that communicates with more complex versions of CATIA and ENOVIA used by large OEMs.
