ARC International has a vision to be the recognized leader in tableware in markets with high growth potential and value added.

To accomplish this, they needed to establish local presence in new markets and to connect global development organizations to share and collaborate on product design. They selected Dassault Systèmes’ My Product Portfolio industry solution experience to improve multi-site collaboration worldwide, reduce development times, and bring innovative ideas to market faster.

“ARC International Group’s growth comes from innovation, our presence in the emerging nations and the optimization of our value chain through product development processes and reducing product development time.

The goal of our project is basically to implement product design in their primary forms everywhere in the world in a coordinated and harmonious fashion. Implementing the 3DEXPERIENCE platform enables to share a common language. The most interesting is that the collaborative aspect of the tool allows to intensify this exchange and thus to work better together.

Arc International uses CATIA for product design, DELMIA for 2 to 5 axis-machining for molds, and ENOVIA to manage, coordinate and develop multi-site coordination... By implementing ENOVIA we can really share work at a distance without having to copy files, send the file correct, resend, etc. Corrections are made in real time directly by the users and if we have to send it to the machining shop for molds, it’s done practically automatically and transparently.

With 3DEXPERIENCE, we can connect talents and provide people with the means to express their creativity and to bring these ideas to market faster. Collective innovation; this is how we stay ahead.”    Jérôme Perrod, Senior Vice President Industry, R&D and Purchasing
