Chrysler Group Extends Partnership With Siemens PLM

Siemens PLM Software has announced that Chrysler Group LLC has selected Siemens PLM Software's technology for product design and development.

Chrysler Group began using Teamcenter software, Siemens PLM Software's digital lifecycle management solution, as its corporate-wide PDM system in 2008. Teamcenter provides a single source of product knowledge across a company, available at any time in any location during the product development process.

Chrysler Group has now added NX software, Siemens PLM Software's comprehensive digital product development solution, to provide efficiency gains in engineering and design and to help create a common product development platform.

"Integration of this tool will help to enhance our ability to collectively engineer new products with improved quality and faster time to market," said Scott Kunselman, Senior Vice President Engineering, Chrysler Group LLC.
