ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm, announces an upcoming free webinar, "Physics-Based Simulation Software: Consolidation Implications for Industry." The webinar, hosted by members of CIMdata's Simulation-Driven Systems Development Consulting Practice, will take place on Thursday, 27 February 2025, at 11:00 a.m. (EST) and will last one hour.

The consolidation of the engineering software industry is reshaping the landscape of physics-based simulation. As competing providers merge and expand their offerings, companies must navigate overlapping PLM, PDM/MCAD, EDA/MBSE, and MCAE solutions. This webinar explores the challenges and opportunities this evolving environment presents, from managing software integration conflicts to leveraging AI, analytics, and simulation for enterprise digital transformation.

This webinar will help attendees to:

• Learn about best practices for evaluating the current maturity level of modeling and simulation tools within a digital engineering approach context.
• Identify and assess gaps in existing software tools to determine whether to improve them or integrate multiple solutions from different providers.
• Define meaningful metrics to measure the benefits of implementing simulation, data analytics, and data management digitalization initiatives.
• Understand the benefits and costs of platform consolidation.

Peter Bilello, CIMdata's President & CEO, said, "Follow the money is a simple yet very important phrase in the industrial software world. Recent acquisitions, especially those involving the S&A domain, have been significant and clearly point to the importance of better integration among PLM solutions that support the design and lifecycle simulation of complex systems of systems. Understanding the reasons and a resulting value will be critical for companies that want to be successful moving forward."
