Dassault Systèmes Acquires Diota

Dassault Systèmes has acquired Diota, developer of assembly assistance and quality control software solutions for manufacturing and operations.  The acquisition will expand Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform with actionable virtual twin experiences on the shop floor, enabling customers in the aerospace and defense, industrial equipment, and transportation and mobility industries to optimize the performance of complex industrial processes, according to Dassault.

Diota provides software solutions for digital-assisted operations and digital-based robotics inspection. Its solutions are used by more than 100 companies in 16 countries including BAE Systems, Dassault Aviation, Iveco, Latécoère, Naval Group, ORANO, Safran, Stellantis and Thales Alenia Space.

Dassault Systèmes will integrate Diota’s solutions into its DELMIA applications, which are used to collaboratively and virtually model, optimize and execute manufacturing, supply chains, logistics and services with new levels of intelligence and decision-making. This combination will enhance the use of digital mock-ups and their associated digital processes for manufacturing operations by delivering interactive, operations-level solutions that connect a virtual twin with real-world data in the field.
