We are pleased to share the next step in the evolution of DELMIA Quintiq mobility: DELMIA Quintiq Mobile Client (DQMC).
DQMC is the forward-looking mobile client for DELMIA Quintiq solutions, designed to provide a more modern user experience, expanded configuration options, improved offline capabilities, and continued product innovation for mobile users.
As part of this transition, the current Quintiq Mobile Client (QMC) will be decommissioned by the end of 2027. QMC remains operational today, but it is now in maintenance-only mode. This means only critical updates will be provided, while new mobile features and enhancements will be delivered through DQMC.
🚀 Why Move to DQMC?
DQMC builds on the foundation of QMC while introducing a more modern, configurable, and future-ready mobile experience.
Key improvements include:
- 📱 Native device experience with smoother interactions and mobile components that align more closely with iOS and Android behavior
- 🎨 Expanded configurability for layouts, colors, text styling, icons, navigation, and visual design
- 🧩 New mobile components including Avatar, Badge, Action Sheet, Timeline, File Uploader, File Viewer, Date Range Picker, RFID Reader, and more
- 🔄 Improved offline capabilities including offline login, cached data access, API preloading, and offline data management for supported scenarios
- 🔐 Modern login options including biometric login, external password manager support, and certificate-based authentication
- ⚙️ Accelerated configuration through a fully featured visual designer for mobile definitions
Ongoing quarterly DQMC releases with new capabilities added over time
Recent DQMC releases have already introduced enhancements such as calendar export, customizable notification pages, expanded icon libraries, custom icon support, flexible list multi-select modes, stronger offline request handling, app version validation, and configurable time picker intervals.
👥 What This Means for Existing QMC Customers
Existing QMC apps can be migrated to DQMC. The overall backend architecture remains the same, so no new backend software components are required solely to use DQMC. However, the mobile UI definition uses an updated format and must be migrated.
Migration tooling is available to automate a significant portion of the work. In many cases, the migrated app can preserve the same page structure and workflows, helping users transition to DQMC with a familiar experience.
Customers can then choose whether to keep the migrated experience close to their current QMC app or take advantage of DQMC’s expanded configuration options to introduce a more modern mobile UX over time.
📅 Timeline
- 2025 Refresh 2: DQMC became available for Workforce Planner and Fleet & Crew Planner, enabling customers to begin migration planning and execution.
- 2026 and beyond: DQMC continues to receive new capabilities through its own release schedule, with product investment focused on the new mobile client.
- End of 2027: QMC is planned to be decommissioned. After decommissioning, QMC will no longer receive updates on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and will subsequently be removed from those stores.
We recommend that all customers currently using QMC begin migration planning well ahead of the 2027 deadline. Early planning helps ensure sufficient time for assessment, migration, validation, user communication, and rollout.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Does DQMC support all QMC functionality?
DQMC supports the vast majority of QMC functionality and adds many new capabilities. One known exception is the former QMC text messaging with planner feature; this was not used by the vast majority of projects and instead many models have implemented workflows where employees and planners can interact and provide their own free form comments to each other. Customers with specific feature concerns should review the compatibility information and discuss their use case with their DELMIA contact.
Does DQMC support Mobile Device Management (MDM)?
Yes. DQMC supports deployment and configuration through Mobile Device Management.
Does DQMC require backend architecture changes?
No. The overall architecture remains the same, and no new backend software components are required solely to use DQMC.
Will QMC continue to receive updates?
QMC is in maintenance-only mode. Only critical updates will be provided. New mobile features and enhancements are focused on DQMC.
Will end users need to relearn the app?
For a migration that preserves the existing app structure, users can continue working with familiar pages and workflows. Customers may also choose to enhance the experience over time using DQMC’s newer design and configuration options.
