Swarovski Standardizes Product Lifecycle on Dassault Systemes
Swarovski, a consumer discretionary organization in Switzerland, uses CATIA from Dassault Systemes to support change control for engineering and quality.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Capability | Change control stays visible to adjacent teams through CATIA |
| Capability | Engineering and quality work from the same CATIA record for product lifecycle data |
| Capability | Product lifecycle data can be reviewed without waiting on a personal export |
Story
Swarovski is based in Switzerland and runs consumer discretionary operations at a scale where product lifecycle data cannot live in side channels. Engineering and quality were reconciling competing copies of the same work, which slowed change control and hid who owned the next step.
The company runs change control on Dassault Systemes, with CATIA as the product engineering and quality actually open. Dassault Systemes builds 3DEXPERIENCE applications for product design, simulation, and manufacturing operations across industrial companies. For Swarovski, that means engineering and quality can open one workflow, see product lifecycle data, and let neighboring teams join without inventing a parallel stack.
Public materials confirm the companies and products. They do not always publish a single verified KPI for this pairing, so the outcome here is operational: clearer ownership, fewer stalled handoffs, and a shared record for product lifecycle data.
