Manufacturing is built on innovation and efficiency, and nowhere is that more evident than with D4M’s model-based approach using DELMIA Apriso. Using D4M International’s expertise alongside this comprehensive system allows manufacturers and businesses to increase productivity, improve quality and shift as marketing demands change.
Through a combination of proven experience built on the foundation of a powerful system, this article will demonstrate how DELMIA Apriso can turn a production line into a well-oiled machine.
What is DELMIA Apriso?
DELMIA Apriso is a MOM or Manufacturing Operations Management Solution. Developed by Dassault Systèmes, DELMIA Apriso is not a MBSE (Model Based Systems Engineering) tool, but it does align with MBSE principles through its model-based, data-backed approach. This in turn helps manufacturers create data-driven, standardized processes with full control and global management.
What is MBSE?
MBSE is a type of methodology that uses models as the basis of design, analytics and validation. By creating digital representations of complex processes, engineers can test out different scenarios, uncover potential issues and make sure that systems and processes alike are running consistently.

Aligning Innovation with MBSE Principles
Although DELMIA Apriso isn’t a direct MBSE tool, it nevertheless integrates well with MBSE principles. This integration in turn gives manufacturers the ability to:
Increase Operational Efficiency
By streamlining processes, reducing lead times and using real-time data for actionable decisions, manufacturers can increase overall productivity without the bottlenecks. Through the use of optimized workflows, automated scheduling tools and just-in-time inventory management, your business can operate at the highest levels of efficiency while consistently meeting deadlines.
Improve Product Quality
A manufacturer’s reputation is built on quality. Through DELMIA Apriso, manufacturers can now integrate automated quality checks as part of their production process. This helps spot any defects before they become more widespread. Through data-driven insights, real-time feedback and more standardized quality protocols, the need for reworks as well as overall waste is greatly reduced.
Cut Costs
Manufacturing understandably comes with high operating costs. With DELMIA Apriso’s proactive resource management, including real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance, manufacturers can reduce excess inventory and scrap. Machines and labor can be assigned based on various metrics and current demand, which in turn prevents overuse or underuse.
Increase Market Agility
As large as manufacturing is, across a number of sectors, companies still need to be agile and be able to change direction quickly. When market shifts or consumer demands change, DELMIA Apriso helps manufacturers turn their attention where it needs to be. For example, integrated systems to production schedules and supply chains help manufacturers keep up with increased market demand, while scalable architecture makes it easier to integrate new technology as it becomes available.
