BRANO GROUP: Designing Innovative Products for OEM Automotive Customers

Brano Group, a privately owned Tier 1 automotive supplier based in the Czech Republic, is using Dassault Systèmes’ (3DS) 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, including its ENOVIA V6 application for collaborative innovation. In particular, Brano uses ENOVIA for project management, product data and structure management, change process management and internal collaboration.

“We follow and still improve an industry methodology for product development that was designed by Ford, GM and Daimler 15 years ago called Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP). This set of procedures, along with the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), is used to develop products for the automotive industry and ensure that we develop with the level of quality expected by automotive OEMs,” Daniel Otáhal, Ph.D., Key Account Manager, Brano, said.

“We configured ENOVIA V6 Program Central to manage the 220 tasks linked to APQP. Now, our approach is consistent and every time we bid for new business we can guarantee that all project tasks are assigned to the right people and accounted for,” he said.
