Case Study: Pacific Consultants speeds up infrastructure design and knowledge sharing with Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE

Pacific Consultants

Pacific Consultants, a Japanese civil engineering firm, faced challenges in managing large-scale infrastructure projects efficiently. They needed to improve design accuracy, capture and share expert knowledge, and reduce time-consuming manual processes like 2D drawing revisions and sediment volume calculations. To address this, they partnered with vendor Dassault Systèmes to implement the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud, specifically using its Civil Infrastructure Engineering solution and CATIA applications.

The solution from Dassault Systèmes provided parametric modeling and a centralized 3D data management system, which automated design updates and created virtual twins of projects. This resulted in massive efficiency gains; a sediment volume calculation that previously took an hour was reduced to just three seconds. The platform also enabled effective knowledge sharing through design templates, speeding up design reviews and training. These improvements allowed Pacific Consultants to propose solutions faster in emergencies, retain valuable expertise, and free up employee time for innovative work.
