ItвЂ™s going to be exciting to see how well DS can take advantage of the вЂњFormulation in the Age of ExperienceвЂќВ opportunity.ДЇiled Under: Clarity on PLM Tagged With: 3DExperience, Dassault Systemes, Enginuity, ENOVIA, Formulation, Formulator, Integration, One-to-One, Platform, PLM, R&D, Recipe, Spec Management, Specification Management The combination of these things is even more interesting. While Enginuity and Accelerys (now part of a new brand, Biovia) arenвЂ™t pulled together yet, the market synergy is tremendous.Д®nginuity in Enovia is a significant and important accomplishment and opens the door for DS to do more business in the formulated industries.

DS also acquired Accelrys in a big move that gives them a significantly larger presence and product footprint in R&D and process manufacturing (you wonвЂ™t be surprised that I have opinions on the DS acquisition of Accelerys too).

For example, DS already has experience with packaging and artwork, and now can focus on whatвЂ™s inside the package (along with ingredients lists, warnings, and other compliance mandates) in an integrated way.

DS is more focused on non-discrete manufacturing industries than before, opening up more opportunity for Enginuity.

All DS solutions are moving toward a common platform that goes well beyond traditional PLM.

DS has transformed and Enovia is now part of the broader 3DExperience Platform.

They also took the time to make some nice enhancements including cost optimizationВ andВ material alternates/substitutes capabilities.Д«ut a fewВ of things have changed that make this even more important: They also transitioned it away from files to a data-centric approach. From what I can see DS didnвЂ™t cut corners, Enginuity is now made up of first class objects in Enovia. I wasnвЂ™t sure what the exact approach would be, but it was a no-brainer. When DS acquired Enginuity I knew that they plannedВ to incorporate it into ( or at least integrate it to) Enovia. Congrats to Enginuity veteran Dale Pixley and the team! Why is this Bigger News than I Would Have Expected? DS envisioned the Enovia backbone as the PLM layer to go beyond whatВ Enginuity was able to accomplish managing files inВ Documentum. But the goal was to do more than offer a standalone tool.

When DS acquired EnginuityВ (see Dassault Systemes Acquires the Recipe for Developing Formula-Based Products with Enginuity for my thoughts) they gained a tremendous amount of intellectual property and knowhow in the formulate goods industries, particularly cosmetics. It brings formulation into the fold of the bigger product innovation and product development process.

This was not a trivial task, but it was an important one. This is big news in the process / formulated goods industry because Enginuity was a thought-leading formulation solution and is now available as an integrated solution on an enteprise-class infrastructure.

DS has made a lot of progress integrating Enginuity into their PLM suite and showed me Enginuity is nowВ a full part of Enovia. I visited Dassault Systemes in Waltham, Massachusetts to get a look at the latest version of the Enginuity formulation system. Formulation systems just took a major step forward in the enterprise.
