Wednesday 16 May (morning only)PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION CHALLENGES

Get more from your materials

Material knowledge is often scattered throughout the organi-zation. The digitalization of mate-rials information is critical to your business.

Improve your Simulation, PLM and Design

Find out about best practice for delivering accurate, consistent materials data direct into your current engineering and simulation software.

Connect islands of material knowledge

How can a single source of mate-rials information help you create better vehicles? Take time out to learn the importance of building "material intelligence".

Make better materials decisions

Gain invaluable insight from those who have implemented materials information technology and used it to guide decision-making, driving innovation and reducing risk.

Understand vital materials-related topics

Learn the essentials about mate-rials selection, test data manage-ment, composites, light-weighting, restricted substances and additive manufacturing.

Hear from OEM, Tier 1s, and Partners

Meet industry speakers and engi-neering software experts as they share real project experience of how using materials information helps their businesses.

Who should attend?Attribute Owners and Project Leaders of Interior, Exterior and Powertrain Find out why material intelligence is an emerging strategic issue for Automotive OEMs and Tier 1s, and what other organizations are doing about it in the context of their business processes and PLM systems.

Managers responsible for MaterialsSee how other organizations maximize return on investment from materials testing and analysis, and deploy the results for greatest impact across their organizations.

Managers responsible for Simulation See how other organizations avoid wasted time and investment in virtual product development, by ensuring swift access to reliable, traceable materials input data.

Innovation TeamsHear about the latest materials technologies and vital information management support in areas such as Additive Manufacturing and Composites.
