JLR will deploy Dassault Systèmes’ V6 solutions for Product Lifecycle Management – the process which drives and controls all vehicle creation processes – to increase operational efficiency and reduce complexity through enhanced innovation and accelerated development capabilities.

Dassault Systèmes was chosen by JLR as its preferred partner in the PLM field following an 18 month evaluation period that included a full analysis of the PMTI (Process, Method, Tools, Information) environment at JLR.

In addition to supplying existing system programmes, development engineers from Dassault Systèmes and JLR will work together on new processes and solutions required to create new generations of premium vehicles. The focus on commonality, innovation and integration will have the dual benefit of significantly increasing efficiencies while reducing cost by a similar margin, JLR said.
