Supporting the transition from CATIA V5 to 3DEXPERIENCE
As OEMs and suppliers move to connected digital platforms, Honda suppliers are required to transition from CATIA V5 to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. TriMech Enterprise helps make that transition simple and low‑risk.
This change is about more than upgrading design software; it enables stronger collaboration, reduces errors, and future‑proofs engineering workflows within an increasingly connected digital supply chain.
Our dedicated team offers packaged deployment and training solutions, along with ongoing 3DEXPERIENCE support and risk‑management expertise across the Honda supply chain. We focus on making your integration as seamless as possible, so you can stay focused on delivering your projects with confidence.
What is the Supplier Readiness Assessment?
Rather than simply telling you what must be done to satisfy OEM requirements, we focus on driving meaningful change that supports your business in achieving its own objectives, while naturally enabling compliance with OEM expectations.
We evaluate your current environment to uncover business‑wide opportunities for growth, efficiency, and improvement. By identifying the right solutions, we help align your operations, reduce risk, and enable you to meet both your business objectives and OEM delivery requirements with confidence.
HONDA & 3DEXPERIENCE: Where CATIA and DELMIA Fit
Vehicle Design with CATIA
By using Dassault Systèmes’ CATIA software, Honda can optimize their designs, as well as virtually simulate its cars to test and validate designs.
In addition, using CATIA ensures specific manufacturing plants can build vehicles as designed. Through CATIA, Honda is able to see any vehicle and guarantee that its plants have the contents and resources they need to build each specific variation. Dassault Systèmes’ CATIA enables Honda’s plant managers to view the product build and sequence and apply it to the actual plant. Because all of Honda’s plants carry different resources.
Manufacturing Operations with DELMIA
To operate efficiently, Honda needed to bring together products, processes and resources in the context of the manufactured product and plant. Using the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, Honda’s Virtual Maturation Team was able to move its verification process from strictly physical to primarily digital verification, which has enhanced the company’s time to market and productivity.
