Dassault Systèmes SA develops and distributes software solutions, including 3D design, simulation, query, life science, and laboratory informatics applications.
History
Dassault Systèmes was formed in 1981, spun out from Dassault Aviation and its 3D design software CATIA.[1] The company used a step-by-step approach to get a start in other industries beyond aeronautical design, including automotive design, consumer goods, machinery, and shipbuilding. IBM itself became a customer in the mid 1980s and deployed CATIA in its engineering and manufacturing plants.[1]
By the early 2000s, Dassault's CAD/CAM software was replaced by product lifecycle management (PLM) software. New brand names were added to address the full PLM spectrum: DELMIA to support manufacturing, ENOVIA to support internal and external collaboration, SIMULIA to support analysis and simulation, SolidWorks for 3D modeling, and 3DVIA for 3D visualization. A few years later, recognizing the advantages of the Internet, Dassault introduced a Web version of its PLM with its Version 6 platform.[1]
On January 30, 2014, news broke that Dassault Systèmes had agreed to purchase Accelrys, Inc. for almost $750 million, valued at $12.50 per share in cash, pending approval by Accelrys shareholders.[2] On April 29, Dassault announced it had completed the acquisition "through a merger."[3] The former Accelrys products would then be incorporated into a new Dassault product branding called BIOVIA. Dassault's CEO said of BIOVIA, "The integration of Accelrys’ powerful applications with our 3DEXPERIENCE platform will create a new collaborative environment for advanced biological, chemical and materials experience development."[4] In May 2014 Research firm Gartner, Inc. called BIOVIA "the most significant life-sciences-focused investment that a major product life cycle management (PLM) software vendor has ever made."[5]
Technology and products
BIOVIA product line
The BIOVIA product line was created in May 2014 as a result of the acquisition of Accelrys, Inc. and its holdings.[4] The following are included in the product line:
BIOVIA LES (formerly Accelrys LES[6]), a laboratory execution system that "delivers transformational productivity for QA/QC labs supporting common workflows such as material testing for recipes, stability testing, product release testing and post-release quality testing"[7]
BIOVIA LIMS (formerly Accelrys LIMS[8]), a laboratory information management system (LIMS) "purpose-built to manage 21st-century requirements for informatics supporting lab management processes"[9]
BIOVIA Workbook (formerly Accelrys ELN[10] and Symyx Notebook[11]), an electronic laboratory notebook designed "to document and manage the flow of information, tasks and materials within and between labs"[12]
