(Pronounced - Dasoh) (NASDAQ: DASTY; Euronext: 13065) is a leading company specializing in 3D and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software. (Nasdaq: DASTY, Euronext Paris Euronext Paris is France's securities market, formerly known as the Paris Bourse, which merged with the Amsterdam and Brussels exchanges in September 2000 to form Euronext NV, which is the second largest exchange in Europe behind the London Stock Exchange. : #13065, DSY DSY Drum Storage Yard .PA) today announced a Product Lifecycle Product lifecycle or product life cycle is the course of a product's sales and profits over time. The five stages of each product lifecycle are product development, introduction, growth, maturity and decline. Management (PLM (Product Life cycle Management) A comprehensive information system that coordinates all aspects of a product from initial concept to its eventual retirement. Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design ) industry solution for aerospace manufacturers based on proven DS PLM Practices. The Best of Breed Structure Engineering (BOBSE) solution integrates the activities and processes required to design and manufacture structural aircraft parts and assemblies (sheetmetal, machined, and composite parts) as well as the corresponding tools required to build them. Based on the most widely-used aerospace product lifecycle management solutions, CATIA A family of 2D and 3D CAD programs from IBM. CATIA was one of the first CAD programs to provide 3D solid modeling. The program was developed by Dassault Systems, a French aerospace company. (R), DELMIA DELMIA Digital Enterprise Lean Manufacturing Interactive Application (TM), and ENOVIA(TM), BOBSE deploys proven best practices that enable customers to ramp up Ramp Up To increase a company's operations in anticipation of increased demand. Notes: A company might 'ramp up' operations if they just signed a contract creating substantially more demand for their product. See also: Demand, Economies of Scale to full productivity in less time and get the most out of both their existing intellectual property and their PLM V5 investment. The relational design capabilities of BOBSE enable early communication between design, manufacturing and service engineering teams. It allows manufacturers to constantly monitor performance and costs implications of design decisions between these teams to increase design iterations while reducing late engineering changes. BOBSE advances common methods and processes across the extended enterprise to facilitate collaboration and link innovation to development. Furthermore, it sustains continuous improvement to intellectual property to maximize and reuse it on derivative programs. "Dassault Systemes unique understanding of the engineering demands within the aerospace industry gives us the tools and best practices that enable our innovative people to reach new levels of productivity in building and delivering a superior aircraft that consistently exceeds our customer's expectations," said Jeff Schiesser, Director Business Integration at Cessna Aircraft Company. "Dassault Systemes has spent years working very closely with its aerospace customers to understand their needs and ensure that our PLM solutions provide the means to successfully produce aircrafts, and will continue to expand the understanding of industry needs with the recently created IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) aerospace competency COMPETENCY, evidence.
