AEC industry collaborates in 3D

7 January 2013

Dassault Systèmes has launched a new industry solution experience for the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector.

Built from the company’s 3DEXPERIENCE platform, the Lean Construction solution provides a collaborative environment that helps companies develop, manage and organise complex projects from anywhere with full governance.

Companies can also review and analyse different options to ensure they’ve created the best construction approach and assembly sequences.

Once the project is underway, the AEC solution helps track progress in real-time to avoid field collisions between contractors, subcontractors, and others.

“For years, the global construction industry has been plagued by delays, cost overruns and inefficiencies,” said Monica Menghini, executive vice president, Industry and Marketing, Dassault Systèmes. “In this context, our Lean Construction industry solution experience helps AEC companies understand their projects better from start to finish, and improves upon the promise that building information modelling technology made but hasn’t fulfilled yet.”
