PLM software & collaborative innovation

ENOVIA

Connect people, data, and processes in a unified PLM platform.

Innovative products don't happen by chance—they happen where strategy, collaboration, and data seamlessly intertwine. 

ENOVIA is Dassault Systèmes' PLM and collaboration solution based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. It creates a central, networked environment in which product definition, development processes, and value creation networks are brought together in a structured manner. Instead of distributed information and isolated departments, a consistent digital platform for product lifecycle management (PLM) and product data management (PDM) is created. People, ideas, product data, and business processes are intelligently connected—transparently, traceably, and in real time.

With ENOVIA, you can plan and control your innovation strategy from the initial requirement to market launch – in an agile, scalable, and compliance-secure manner. At CENIT, we support you in strategically implementing ENOVIA within your organization and transforming your product development in a sustainable manner.

Why ENOVIA for modern product lifecycle management?

With ENOVIA, you create a consistent PLM platform that combines transparency, control, and agility throughout your entire product development process. Connecting people, data, and processes based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform enables you to plan innovation in a structured manner and implement it sustainably.

Companies benefit in particular from:

End-to-end digital continuity

All product-related information is available centrally—from requirements and system models to components and parts lists to work plans and operating resources.

Mastery of variant and product complexity

Configuration and change management ensure consistent product definitions and make complexity manageable.

Transparent and auditable processes

Seamless traceability and compliance functions support certifications and regulatory requirements.

Improved collaboration across departments

Global teams, suppliers, and partners work in a shared digital environment with a unified database.

Faster innovation and development cycles

Optimized workflows, structured product definition, and real-time transparency shorten time-to-market.

Protection and reuse of intellectual property

IP management and knowledge retention ensure (long-term) competitiveness and leverage economies of scale.

Strategic planning & governance

Plan for success – with transparency and decision intelligence

ENOVIA connects departments, development teams, and management on a shared platform. Executives gain real-time visibility into the product pipeline, market opportunities, and project progress.

With functions for:

  • Planning product and service strategies
  • Portfolio and project management
  • Real-time progress tracking
  • Compliance and governance control

the value creation network becomes a strategic advantage. Decisions are based on consistent, up-to-date data—not isolated information silos.

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)

Centralized product data – full control over variants and changes

ENOVIA offers a comprehensive range of functions for modern product lifecycle management:

  • Product Data Management (PDM)
  • Requirements and test management
  • Configuration management
  • Bill of materials management (EBOM, MBOM, SBOM)
  • Quality and compliance management
  • IP protection and reuse

A central PLM database ensures that all product-related information is up-to-date, consistent, and available on a role-based basis. Articles, parts lists, revision statuses, and configurations are synchronized automatically – in an audit-compliant and traceable manner.

The RFLP approach (Requirements, Functional, Logical, Physical) ensures a structured and holistic product definition.

Collaborative innovation & global collaboration Digital collaboration in 3D

ENOVIA enables collaborative innovation in a secure, cloud-based environment. Teams around the world work together on product definitions, bills of materials, and change processes—regardless of location or device.

The platform offers:

  • Digital 3D visualization for all users
  • Rights-based access to current product data
  • Consistent workflows for change processes
  • Integration of suppliers and partners into the value creation network

This results in shorter innovation cycles, improved coordination, and transparent communication across departments and company boundaries.

Multi-CAD & system integration Integration of existing engineering landscapes

ENOVIA connects file-based CAD applications to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, including CATIA V5, SOLIDWORKS, and third-party solutions for mechanical and electrical design.

This enables companies to benefit from:

  • Multi-CAD data management
  • Integration of M-CAD and E-CAD
  • ERP integration for end-to-end processes
  • Visualization of 3D data directly on the web
  • Display of PLM metadata in the 3D view

Existing investments remain protected while end-to-end digital continuity is created.

Variant & change management

Master complexity, accelerate innovation

The increasing variety of variants and product complexity requires robust configuration and change management.

ENOVIA enables:

  • Management of all product variants and configuration rules
  • Consolidated, cross-location bills of materials
  • Validation of product configurations
  • Automated change processes
  • Seamless traceability for audits and certifications

This ensures that all teams work with consistent data and that changes are implemented in a controlled and transparent manner.

PLM solutions for different industries

ENOVIA supports companies in numerous industries with industry-specific best practices.

The platform enables both SMEs and global corporations to efficiently scale their innovation processes and reliably meet regulatory requirements.

Industries:

  • Transportation & Mobility
  • Aerospace
  • High Tech
  • Consumer goods & retail
  • Energy & Processes
  • Shipping industry & offshore
