| | JUNE 20248L&T Technology Services has officially opened the Simulation Centre of Excellence for Airbus, situated at the cutting-edge LTTS campus in Bangalore. This center aims to enhance engineering assistance for Airbus' aircraft structural simulation endeavors across various business sectors in Europe, including France, Germany, the UK, and Spain.With state-of-the-art simulation software, hardware, and high-performance computational equipment, the Simulation CoE endeavors to harmonize and standardize procedures throughout all of Airbus' European business divisions and aircraft initiatives. The primary goal is to optimize efficiency and boost productivity, thereby expediting the attainment of program goals within set timelines.Initiated approximately 18 months ago with a specialized core team, the Centre of Excellence (CoE) has demonstrated significant growth and development. The strategic plan includes a substantial scaling up of the centre over the next two years. This expansion reflects the deep commitment of LTTS to fostering innovation and excellence in aerospace engineering, highlighting the dedication to advancing the industry through sustained development and expertise.Speaking on this significant development, Alind Saxena, President ­ Sales and Executive Director, L&T Technology Services, stated, "The establishment of the Simulation CoE for Airbus reflects our deep-seated commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation alongside Airbus. This Centre is not just about technology; it's about creating a standardized, efficient framework that propels Airbus' industry-leading aircraft into the future. Together, we are not just navigating the present landscape but also shaping the future of aviation, ensuring that our collaboration remains a key driver of our success in India and the world".The inauguration of the Simulation CoE for Airbus signifies ten years of successful partnership between LTTS and Airbus India, underscoring a mutual commitment to innovation and excellence in the worldwide aerospace sector. It lays the groundwork for both entities to maintain their leadership positions in significant markets such as Europe and India, advancing together with a unified approach that amplifies operational efficiency and productivity. Siemens Digital Industries Software has revealed an extension of its collaboration with Microsoft, enabling the Siemens Xcelerator as a Service suite of industry software to be accessible via Microsoft's cloud and AI platform, Azure. This joint effort seeks to merge Siemens' software with generative AI and Copilot capabilities, providing Siemens' clientele with increased flexibility and options while also broadening the accessibility of Microsoft's AI solutions.The partnership will commence with the delivery of Teamcenter X software, a scalable and secure Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution, on Microsoft Azure. This move allows customers to implement mission-critical solutions on their preferred cloud and AI platform, benefiting from Microsoft's responsible AI tools and enterprise-grade security. Teamcenter X empowers teams to streamline operations, reduce cycle time, minimize IT costs, and accelerate innovation.This partnership expands upon the recent introduction of the Teamcenter application on Microsoft Teams. Siemens' top-tier Teamcenter software enables smooth communication between frontline factory and service teams and design and engineering teams. Harnessing advancements in generative AI and Natural Language Processing, Siemens developers have embedded tailored copilot functionality into the application, empowering frontline workers to efficiently access engineering data and foster effective collaboration.Siemens is in the process of creating a Copilot for Microsoft 365 plugin specifically designed for the Siemens Teamcenter application on Teams. This plugin is set to enhance workload management for workers throughout the product lifecycle and value chain. By integrating Microsoft Copilot directly into the Teams app, users gain the ability to solicit assistance seamlessly, thereby boosting productivity and facilitating collaboration.Nick Parker, President of Industry & Partnerships at Microsoft, emphasized the importance of integrating Azure AI into the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio to meet market demands and stimulate customer-centric innovation. This partnership seeks to empower design engineers, frontline workers, and teams across various business functions and geographical locations, nurturing innovation and enhancing productivity.
