Jaguar Land Rover Partners with Dassault Systemes

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) and Dassault Systemes, a specialist in 3D and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions, have today entered a strategic partnership that will see advanced digital 3D simulation and development tools transform Jaguar Land Rover’s Product Development processes.

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

The decision was made following an 18 month evaluation period that included a full analysis of the PMTI (Process, Method, Tools, Information) environment at Jaguar Land Rover.

In addition to supplying existing system programmes, development engineers from Dassault Systèmes and Jaguar Land Rover will work together on new processes and solutions that will provide the combination of simplification and specialization required to create new generations of premium vehicles. This will also help to significantly increase efficiencies while reducing cost by a similar margin.

“The signing of this strategic cooperation contract will accelerate and reveal the power of collaborative innovation for intelligent vehicles. Integrating electronics and onboard software has become a critical element of differentiation for a great vehicle experience. PLM2 with Version 6 can only provide such simplification and elevation to Lifelike PLM with rapid ROI,” stated Dassault Systemes President and CEO Bernard Charles.

"We look to this association to bring significant technical and commercial benefits to Jaguar Land Rover. Dassault Systèmes will provide the processes and tools we need to more efficiently develop and create vehicles that exceed our customers' expectations in every respect and deliver the highest standards of quality," added Jaguar Land Rover Chief Executive Officer, Ralf Speth.
