"Together, we are offering an open, end-to-end digital portfolio – from digital twin to asset health – that gives our customers a competitive edge, building on our combined offering, domain expertise and global reach. ABB is adding Dassault Systèmes to its strong partner network for industrial digitalization, including HPE, Microsoft and IBM. We look very much forward to working with the entire global Dassault Systèmes team to drive innovation and customer value.”
"The Industry of the 21st century is no longer determined simply by the ability to manufacture goods," said Bernard Charlès, vice chairman and CEO, Dassault Systèmes. "Today’s leaders will be determined by superior mastery of technical know-how. This is the new competitive differentiator and it’s happening now due to a convergence of digital technologies that are transforming every aspect of industrial business. In this industry renaissance, a platform approach enables the real and virtual worlds to inform and reinforce one another. Our partnership with ABB will draw from decades of combined expertise to help customers make the most of this powerful and dynamic trend."
The ABB – Dassault Systèmes partnership will initially focus on factory automation and robotics, smart buildings, and process industries like mining.
ABB Ability was launched in 2017 and offers more than 210 digital solutions to plan, build and operate industrial operations.
