Stop Managing Simulations in Folders: 5 Reasons Your CAE Team Needs SPDM Now

Spreadsheets, shared drives, and email attachments slow down your simulation process and make collaboration cumbersome. Simulation Process and Data Management (SPDM) provides a structured way to manage models, runs, and results across your organization. SCALE.sdm connects everything from CAD to results in one secure, efficient, and intelligent platform – enabling teams to work more reliably, with greater transparency and control.

1. Manage Complexity with a Unified Data Backbone

Modern product development programs involve numerous variants and dependencies. SCALE.sdm links models, loads, materials, scripts, solver settings, and results in a single governed environment.

Your team gains full traceability, version control, and transparency, reducing redundant work, and minimizing errors.

2. Collaborate Seamlessly Across Teams and Partners

SCALE.sdm provides a single source of truth for simulation data. Teams across locations can work on shared projects in real-time, with role-based access and browser-based review of workflows.

This ensures secure, efficient collaboration with internal colleagues and external partners, eliminating lost files and speeding decision-making.

3. Automate Workflows and Streamline Operations

Define validated workflows and reusable templates to standardize simulation processes, from preprocessing to reporting.

SCALE.sdm also supports orchestration of simulation runs on available compute resources, helping teams handle larger workloads and reduce cycle times, without increasing headcount.

4. Turn Simulation Data into Knowledge and AI-Assisted Insights

SCALE.sdm structures your simulation data so teams can analyze trends, compare results, and reuse models efficiently.

It also enables integration with generative AI and machine learning, which can assist with repetitive or data-intensive tasks – for example, reviewing large log files or generating standardized reports – while all decisions remain in the hands of engineers.

5. Ensure Compliance, Governance & Traceability

SCALE.sdm ensures that simulations and data are managed securely, transparently, and under full control.

All changes, versions, and dependencies are logged, so teams can always see who changed what and when. This structured visibility supports quality assurance, internal audits, and traceable documentation, without complicating daily workflows.

SCALE.sdm is the digital thread for CAE: uniting data, processes, and people on a single platform. Teams gain transparency, control, efficiency, and insight – all while reducing risk and effort.
