ESI Group Corporate Vision

Enable the Virtual Product Design / Simulation Based Design paradigm shift

The company is set to build a decisive strategic advantage in the area of reengineering industrial design and manufacturing processes by digital simulation in order to speed up change over to Simulation Based Design (SBD) for Product Virtual Development (VPD) within the overall major trend of PLM.
ESI Group’s products, which have a proven track record in manufacturing and have been combined in multi-trade value chains, represent a unique collaborative and open virtual engineering solution known as the Virtual Try-Out Space (VTOS), enabling virtual prototypes to be improved in a continuous and collaborative manner. This integrated protocol allows all the company’s solutions to work with each other and with applications developed by independent software vendors.

Innovation through ‘Realistic’ simulation

Based on this vision, ESI Group aims to provide ‘realistic’ simulation solutions with best-in-class multi-physics modeling for our customers ’‘Jobs-to-be-Done”.
These simulation solutions are offered in an open environment compatible with our customers’ present and future best practices, creating a full MCAE Enterprise solution for Design, Manufacturing and System Integration, supported by a wide ranging offer of engineering services.
Providing these simulation solutions will also stimulate customer innovation while sharing Technological R&D knowledge and proving industrial benefits of virtual prototyping, which will allow them to launch innovative industrial products.

3G-PLM objectives

ESI Group’s main objective is to create an open and adaptive MCAE Enterprise Solution « VTOS® » or « Virtual Try-Out Space » in 3 steps.

1G : ‘Realistic’ simulation software products per type of virtual test, proven within given circumstances & limits of reliability, with dedicated & coherent solver and user environments.

2G : Proven simulation software solutions, linking several 1G steps, to provide integrated value chains to predict design and testing variation effects on product performance and/or fabrication processes per selected ‘Job-to-be-Done’.

3G : Proven best practice, Process Management and customized System Integration for ‘Simulation
Based Design’.

The open and adaptive MCAE Enterprise Solution

The Service strategy complementary to the software product strategy

ESI Group’s strategy fulfils industry’s demand for lower costs and shorter lead times. The company offers a complete range of products and services which drive innovation through promotion and adoption of ‘Realistic Simulation’. ESI Group aims to become the ‘Enabler’ of “Simulation Based Design”.
ESI Group services covers specific expertise through R&D, Methodology, customization, production or on-demand projects, as well as training, academic and support services.
