Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace
Dassault Systèmes has announced the launch of its online 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace, a new trading platform for digital design, engineering and manufacturing transactions.
The cloud-based system will give businesses access to on-demand manufacturing, including 3D printing, and part sourcing services. The 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace currently features 50 digital manufacturers with more than 500 machines and 30 million components from 600 suppliers.
Users will be able to insert specific components within their design environment, or manage their ecosystem of selected service providers and in-house resources. It will allow them to iterate on design and manufacturing specifications, ensure that a part or product can be manufactured, and reduce risk and errors. It will also manage all aspects of a transaction between buyer and seller such as payments, currencies and billing, and provide a record of each transaction for full traceability.
“Today’s Industry Renaissance extends beyond digitalization to the emergence of new players and new categories of solutions, processes and services that prioritize sustainable innovation over productivity,” said Bernard Charlès, Vice Chairman & CEO, Dassault Systèmes. “Based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform that pioneered the category of business experience platform in 2012, the 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace transforms the supply chain into a value chain: a single, virtual, social enterprise, pioneering a new way to do business, innovate, and create value in industry. Online platforms and marketplaces have already transformed retail, transportation and hospitality services. Get ready—the industrial world is next.”
