February 20, 2013 - CIMdata, Inc. announces the publication of the Simulation & Analysis (S&A) Market Overview Report, a module of the CIMdata PLM Market Analysis Report (MAR) series. The report, one part of CIMdata’s expanded coverage of this PLM segment, includes a revamped market segmentation, a discussion of trends in the market, and profiles of the leading S&A firms. “CIMdata routinely gathers data on the S&A market as part of the PLM Market Analysis Report process. The addition of our Simulation & Analysis Knowledge Council (through our 2011 acquisition of CPDA) and establishment of an S&A Practice helped us expand our definition and coverage in the broader S&A market,” stated Stan Przybylinski, Vice President of Research at CIMdata.
This report is one step in documenting the results of CIMdata’s expanded coverage. Building on this work, additional qualitative and quantitative research will support the publication of an S&A-focused Market Analysis Report later in 2013.
