IRS to partner with Dassault Systèmes for maritime digit transformation

Ship classification society Indian Register of Shipping (IRS) has entered into a collaboration arrangement with Dassault Systèmes of France to further develop virtual twin technology to drive digit transformation and operational efficiency.

The collaboration involves the use of Dassault Systèmes’ 3DExperience platform to optimise the performance and efficiency of complex marine and offshore projects. The platform will enable IRS to enhance and implement data-driven decision making, concept design, engineering and maintenance processes, and enable it to monitor crucial key performance indicators (KPIs) of its customers’ assets. Additionally, the platform will enable IRS to create a virtual twin to enhance vessel lifecycle management, offer digital services on a unified platform, and provide end-to-end digital traceability.
