Increased use of simulation in product design and development has enabled companies identify problems early in the design cycle, and helped drive innovation at a lower cost. At the same time, simulation use has led to creation of enormous amount of data, which is not optimally stored for reuse in future, leading to increased cost in data maintenance and recovery. More than any other engineering process, simulation generates significant amount of data, which needs to be maintained and retrieved efficiently in order to gain full benefit from simulation. Simulation data is one of the most important assets to be managed, as it plays a key role in design decision making process.

MSC Software offers a process and data management solution that is uniquely tuned to address simulation requirements. The system is designed to handle the volume and complexity of the simulation data for FEA, CFD and other computationally intensive methods that are growing by orders of magnitude. The web-based capabilities of SimManager ensure faster deployments, easy extension into new domains and broad scale usability.
