Petrobras, an energy organization in Brazil, uses SOLIDWORKS from Dassault Systemes to support change control for engineering and quality.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Productivity | Fewer stalled items because product lifecycle data has a clear owner |
| Risk and compliance | SOLIDWORKS is the governed place engineering and quality use for change control |
| Capability | New joiners can see how change control actually runs |
Story
Inside Petrobras, change control used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in energy groups working out of Brazil. Engineering and quality needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Petrobras uses SOLIDWORKS from Dassault Systemes as the working layer for product lifecycle data. Dassault Systemes builds 3DEXPERIENCE applications for product design, simulation, and manufacturing operations across industrial companies. The practical change is simple: change control has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Petrobras gets from Dassault Systemes is a durable place to run change control and a way for engineering and quality to see the same product lifecycle data at the same time.
