Bosch Software and Digital Solutions (Bosch SDS) and Dassault Systèmes have announced a collaboration in India to help manufacturing enterprises accelerate digital transformation across product engineering, manufacturing operations and industrial value chains. The collaboration combines Dassault Systèmes’ capabilities in Virtual Twin Experiences, Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Digital Manufacturing and Manufacturing Operations Management with Bosch SDS’ expertise in contextualised data products, manufacturing transformation, energy optimisation, IT/OT integration, machine-level intelligence and Industrial AI solutions.
The partnership is already demonstrating progress through an engagement with a leading electric vehicle manufacturer in India. The deployment combines Dassault Systèmes’ DELMIA Apriso Manufacturing Execution System (MES) platform with Bosch SDS’ manufacturing transformation capabilities to support connected, real-time operations and improve production efficiency, quality and digital traceability.
“Manufacturing enterprises today are looking beyond isolated digitization initiatives toward connected, intelligent and autonomous operations. Our collaboration with Dassault Systèmes brings together two highly complementary strengths in Industrial AI: Bosch SDS’s deep expertise as a technology partner and practitioner across manufacturing, operational technology integration along with the Bosch Cognitive Factory platform, and Dassault Systèmes’ leadership in Virtual Twin Experience and Digital Thread capabilities,” said Dattatreya Gaur, MD & CEO, Bosch Software and Digital Solutions.
The companies will work across several areas, including AI-enabled manufacturing transformation and Agentic AI orchestration through the Bosch Cognitive Factory platform, Digital Thread and traceability across engineering and manufacturing, contextualised data products and enterprise intelligence, energy management and sustainability transformation, smart factories and IT/OT convergence, and Digital Product Passport readiness.
“By connecting our virtual twin technology with their industrial expertise, we are helping factories adopt AI much faster. This will create highly connected and sustainable operations. Together, we look forward to helping companies innovate and grow in the digital era,” said Deepak NG, Managing Director, India, Dassault Systèmes.
The collaboration will focus on industries including automotive, electronics, batteries, semiconductors, industrial machinery and consumer durables, while also extending market engagement into heavy engineering and process industries. Bosch SDS will collaborate with Dassault Systèmes as a Consulting and System Integration partner across identified transformation areas spanning engineering, manufacturing and enterprise operations. The companies will jointly develop solutions supporting end-to-end AI, Digital Thread and AI-enabled Digital Product Passports across product and manufacturing value chains.
Ramesh Ramaswamy, Global Sales Head, Bosch Software and Digital Solutions, said the collaboration would help manufacturers move beyond fragmented transformation initiatives towards connected, software-defined and intelligent operations, strengthening their ability to scale innovation, resilience and operational agility.
Established in 1886, the Bosch Group is a global technology and services provider. Bosch SDS provides consulting, engineering and IT services to enterprises worldwide, supporting digital business models, resilient operations and sustainability initiatives through delivery centres across North America, Europe, the UK, the Middle East and Asia Pacific.
