Overview
Process-centric: V5.16 expands 64-bit support to Microsoft(TM) Windows(TM) XP Professional x64 Edition, leveraging the full scope of the V5 capabilities to support in-context, large scale relational design and review. ENOVIA - VPM Electrical Cable Route Management promotes concurrent engineering for electrical cable routing within large-scale products. ENOVIA - LCA Product Simulation Management fully integrates product simulation processes, data, and models with design and lifecycle management processes to improve productivity across domains.

Collaborative workspace: ENOVIA offers the collaborative environment and easy access to product process resources (PPR) information for all PLM users. ENOVIA Web Viewer facilitates rich 3D collaborative product reviews and persistent annotation between product development partners. A richer, lightweight 3D XML format for PLM further extends collaborative access across the extended enterprise.

V5.16 extends PLM collaboration with business partners. ENOVIA - VPM Supply Chain Engineering Exchange integrates finite element analysis specifications and results to fully support the extended enterprise global product simulation. Flexible exchange packages of CATIA relational data across ENOVIA, CATIA, and SMARTEAM facilitate engineering collaboration to enhance decision-making and productivity.

Product, process, resources: In V5.16, VPM Navigator strengthens the single desktop paradigm, further facilitating formalized concurrent work processes and enterprise-wide communication. This release tightens the collaboration of engineering and manufacturing teams. ENOVIA-DELMIA PLM Change Management delivers a direct view of impacted processes and shares more information seamlessly between design and process engineers.

Knowledge: With V5.16, ENOVIA - LCA Enterprise Process Management better harmonizes workflows across disparate applications, delivering greater control, visibility and flexibility for robust end-to-end business processes.

Component Application Architecture: V5.16 drives next generation openness and infrastructure standardization for enterprise deployability. ENOVIA Web Services simplify and accelerate the integration of PLM with existing enterprise investments, delivering a flexible, cost-effective method to link existing business systems, partners, vendors, and customers.
