Alstom has chosen Accenture and Dassault Systèmes to develop a new cloud platform for product lifecycle management (PLM) that is designed to increase the company's competitiveness and support its growth. The new cloud PLM platform will optimize collaboration among Alstom's design offices, as well as better integrate and standardize the company's engineering, manufacturing and maintenance processes. Accenture will draw on its deep expertise in large PLM and cloud solution deployments and build on Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform to develop the new cloud platform.

Alstom will roll out the new platform to selected sites in 2021 and to sites worldwide in 2022.
