Their goal is to combine leading expertise in data management, simulation, systems engineering, and artificial intelligence (AI) to shape the next generation of data-driven product development. As part of the CONTACT Group, the company will operate under the name CAIQ GmbH in the future. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With this step, PDTec and CAIQ are merging their complementary standard software and consulting offerings to strategically expand their joint solution portfolio for digital product development in the fields of simulation, collaboration, and systems engineering. In the future, customers will gain broader access to technology: End-to-end software solutions and high-quality services for virtual engineering will be developed based on the latest technologies and approaches.<\/p>\n<h4>Innovative solutions for the engineering of tomorrow<\/h4>\n<p>Synergies arise in particular from the interaction between PDTec solutions and the CONTACT Elements platform. The future portfolio can be seamlessly enhanced with the extensive industry applications available on the CONTACT Elements platform as needed. This allows customers worldwide and across all industries to benefit from the maximum innovation potential of the future software offering. \u201cThe combination of CAIQ&#8217;s engineering expertise with PDTec&#8217;s simulation and collaboration management opens up new avenues for accelerated, AI-based systems development, as is expected in the software-defined industry\u201d said Dr. Patrick M\u00fcller, Managing Director at CAIQ. <\/p>\n<h4>Continuity and reliability<\/h4>\n<p>Global customers such as Audi, BMW, Brose, Daimler Truck, Grundfos, Nissan, Porsche, and Volkswagen are already using services from this portfolio today. Continuity and reliability are therefore important cornerstones of the coordinated corporate strategy. Together, the next generation of AI-supported software products from PDTec will be developed, as well as a joint range of services and consulting offerings based on the ten years of collaboration that already exist. The current PDTec and CAIQ locations in Germany, Poland, and Romania will be maintained and will continue to provide customer services at the same high level of quality. <\/p>\n<p>\u201eOur customers will benefit from continuity and a unique offering, both in terms of the future company and our solutions portfolio,\u201dsummarizes PDTec Board Member and future Managing Director, Michael S. Murgai.
