Koenigsegg, a Swedish low-volume supercar manufacturer, implemented CATIA PLM Express to unify mechanical design, BOM management, and product data. The solution replaced multiple disconnected systems and enabled fully 3D class-A surface design, real-time customer collaboration, and faster design iterations. The company also planned integration with ENOVIA SmarTeam for design-centric BOM control linked to ERP.

Key takeaways

Replaced multiple disconnected CAD and business systems with a single PLM platform

Enabled 100% 3D class-A surface design and direct machining from CAD models

Improved design quality and allowed real-time customer feedback on digital models

Increased engineer productivity and motivation through easier handling of complex designs

Established foundation for design-based BOM management integrated with ERP
