CAD/PLM resets cutting edge for UK science research 17/03/2008
 
engineering business software Siemens PLM Software solutions partner Cutting Edge Solutions (CES) is to supply around 100 design engineers at the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council with Velocity software, under a five-year contract.



Included in the project are Solid Edge CAM Express, Teamcenter Express, Femap, and NX – all replacing the existing PTC system. The organisation is also implementing Teamcenter PLM (product lifecycle management) on around 160 desktops at the Rutherford Appleton and Daresbury Laboratories, to enable wider access to product design data.

“Technically, we felt that there was a good match between our needs and the Solid Edge/Teamcenter Express capabilities,” says Marc Simon, STFC implementation project manager.

“The Siemens PLM Software portfolio also includes NX, which offers us the flexibility to expand our capabilities even further should this be required.”
