Dassault
Systèmes announced that it is spinning off Transcat PLM GmbH, its sales and
services subsidiary and long-time development partner dedicated to customers of
all sizes in Germany and Slovakia, through a management buyout (MBO). The
transaction builds on Dassault Systèmes’ strategy to strengthen its partners’
business success in each geography and enable a new level of
partner-to-customer-to-user experience.
As
an independent company of 200 employees, Transcat PLM will continue to expand
its position as a value-added reseller (VAR) focused on bringing Dassault
Systèmes’ 3DExperience platform to its customers. It will also grow its
position as a key application development partner to Dassault Systèmes through
its Component Application Architecture (CAA) ecosystem of third-party software
developers. Etienne Droit, Gerhard Keller, and Günther Öhlschläger will be the
managing directors of Transcat PLM GmbH.
