3-D : a revolution in management

• Bernard CHARLÈS
  Directeur général de Dassault Systèmes
  

Summary

For the past twenty years, Dassault Systèmes has been inspired by both the dream and the conviction that an industrial revolution is taking place. The industrial world has begun its process of virtual dematerialisation using new tools for development and for managing the life cycles of products in 3D - The value chain will be transformed. This revolution concerns primarily product design, but also affects, broadly speaking, the entire industrial system in both manufacturing and maintenance. Today, many companies have committed themselves to this technology with remarkable results. Bernard Charlès shows how Dassault Systèmes was the catalyst in this revolution. He explains that the success of his company is due as much to the innovation at Dassault Systèmes, as to the company and management model. This model will also revolutionise company management.
