A key objective of Dassault Systemes Knowledgeware Product Suit is to offer CATIA users strong opportunities to quantify and integrate their competitive knowledge, heuristics rules and design process within an unified PLM Framework. CATIA Knowledgeware suit provides a number of tools for capturing all sorts of knowledge -- from product definition/inception to manufacturing/production. Strategic applications of such tools bring direct results such as increase of the productivity, capturing of mundane (repetitive) tasks, preservation and sharing of critical expertise in the company, dramatically increase in the reuse of the best practices, thus leaving more time for innovation and NPD. The strategy session will explain the role of the different Knowledgeware products within 3D PLM and detail the basic scenarios that can be implemented with your solutions. Presentations and process oriented demonstrations will provide attendees with all necessary information concerning the latest CATIA release (V6). Then an open discussion will be dedicated to attendee's new requirements/interest in KBE topics. This session is open to all conference attendees.
