BRAND NAME SPECIFICATION :

NX has been used by NUWCDIVNPT’s CEML SCC since 1988. In the early 2000s, NUWCDIVNPT performed a competitive evaluation of CAD software in an attempt to bring commonality and interoperability to CAD projects. The down selection was Siemens NX/Teamcenter for high-end integrated CAD/CAE and Solidworks for general CAD.

Changing to a different CAD system is time and cost prohibitive. It would require the re-training of over twenty-five (25) users, the conversion of over thirty (30) years of data models, not to mention the work stoppage and efficiency disruption to current projects. It is estimated that such a conversion would cost in excess of two million dollars.

Siemens PLM Software Inc. is the sole owner of this proprietary software and retains all data rights.

Maintenance support and renewal services for Siemens PLM software is available through various authorized Siemens PLM resellers. As such, this requirement will be competed among these Siemens PLM authorized resellers.
