Does DS have any plans to provide capabilities to author maintenance or support information within their PLM tool suite? Creating technical publications to international and mil-specs is a critical element to any contract, do you have plans to enter this

Addressed by Panelist Jean Jacques Grimaud

ANSWER: ABSOLUTELY! We have a technical publication offering now, called 3DVIA Composer. It publishes 2D technical illustrations that are S1000D and ATA iSpec2200 compliant. The 3DVIA Composer file format itself is S1000D compliant as an embeddable 3D object.

In addition, DS is developing a solution for PLM Generative Documentation on the ENOVIA V6 platform that is available through Business Process Accelerators (BPAs).
