So, when companies standardize or when they start developing products early on is usually the only time to really get involved. So, for better or for worse, companies tend to stick with the CAD solution they chose once and then add on a smorgasbord of other mitigating solutions to that. Workflows, shortcuts, and processes don’t work and migration, training and implementation are very painful. Such switching is usually very painful for companies, employees, thousands of partners, and IT staff.
Perhaps the switch to electrification would give car companies the opportunity for such a mid-stream shift to new core CAD and files management solutions. To pull it off, Siemens will be training Hyundai and Kia to effectively use Siemens software across its suppliers.
This includes production, purchase, and partner R&D. The company stated that the two will work together to establish methods for considering the complete lifecycle of all vehicles, as well as the associated processes and activities. The Xcelerator portfolio is delivering the tools and technologies for digital transformation that the future demands and our customers need today, so we look forward to collaborating with Hyundai and Kia on next generation Engineering and Product Data Management Systems that will speed digital transformation as we explore the future of mobility, together,” said Tony Hemmelgarn, President and Chief Executive Officer, Siemens Digital Industries Software. “Like so many of our customers, Hyundai and Kia is undergoing major transformations in its business and Siemens is honored to have been selected as a strategic partner to provide support and state of the art technologies that will help revolutionize how it develops its next generation products. This is the beginning of a huge transformation and an important point of change for Hyundai Motor Company and with Siemens as our trusted partner we will work together to achieve our goals through mutual cooperation and teamwork,” said Albert Bierman, Head of R&D Division, Hyundai Motor Company. “Selecting NX software and the Teamcenter portfolio from Siemens’ Xcelerator portfolio for our core design and data management platforms will introduce a new working environment for our teams that will pave the way for a leap forward in future car development.
This is a big win for Siemens, as companies rarely if ever switch between CAD, PLM, and other core design software packages. NX is the German tech giant’s CAD/CAM/CAE package, while Teamcenter is its product lifecycle management (PLM) platform. Siemens Digital Industries Software has partnered with Hyundai Motor Company and Kia Corporation to introduce Siemens’ Teamcenter and NX Xcelerator products as their authoring, design and management software.
