VELIZY-VILLACOUBLAY, France, Feb 27, 2025 – Dassault Systèmes has announced the launch of SOLIDWORKS CPQ, its new configure, price, and quote solution on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. SOLIDWORKS CPQ integrates generative AI capabilities that enable businesses to accelerate the order and delivery of customized products through a dynamic virtual experience connecting product portfolio management, development, manufacturing, and sales.
With SOLIDWORKS CPQ, companies can define and design a portfolio of configurable products to fit their customers’ requirements and produce precise quotes. This configure-to-order approach extends the benefits of SOLIDWORKS applications beyond design, bringing product portfolio managers and sales teams into the manufacturing experience. This business solution engages the technologies at the core of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, surpassing the limits of traditional CPQ solutions with the latest advances in virtual twins, virtual design companions, generative experiences, and sense computing.
By linking product configurability rules to a virtual twin on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, design teams can use SOLIDWORKS CPQ to explore the material selection, structural integrity, availability, cost, and other factors and select the optimal choices in less time. Based on the selections, SOLIDWORKS CPQ helps technical sales engineers generate an accurate quote and a 3D-configured product that can be explored in a virtual reality experience that immerses the customer in the project, facilitating final decisions.
SOLIDWORKS CPQ provides the adaptability to modify product definitions in response to changing market trends, business offers, and customer preferences. It also streamlines the process of obtaining technical and financial approvals for quotes, helping to minimize delays in sales orders.
With product development strategies in various industries increasingly focused on meeting specific customer demands, businesses can leverage these innovative approaches to effectively and profitably manage the balance between product customization and standardization.
“SOLIDWORKS CPQ builds upon the 30 years of innovation that have made 3D design simple and powerful. With this new business solution, we’re expanding our scope and reaching new audiences by introducing a complete software ecosystem for manufacturing with next generation technologies that work together in an integrated, effortless way. These dynamic and intelligent ‘3D UNIV+RSES’ enhance every stage of a business’ journey toward growth,” said Manish Kumar, CEO, SOLIDWORKS, Dassault Systèmes.
