Siemens Industry Software Inc.

Siemens Industry Software Inc., doing business as Siemens PLM Software, delivers computational fluid dynamics, electronic design automation, CAD/CAM, simulation, and product lifecycle management software to federal agencies primarily as a prime contractor on full-and-open federal software purchases and task orders, with no SBA set-aside activity. The company is a foreign-owned subsidiary of Siemens Industry, Inc. (itself a subsidiary of Siemens Aktiengesellschaft), headquartered in Plano, Texas, and operates under primary NAICS 541512 (Software Publishers) and PSC code for information technology software.

Siemens PLM Software's federal footprint spans 697 awards across 85 customer agencies, with 89% as prime contracts and 11% as subcontractor work. The vendor competes entirely in full-and-open space — no awards carry set-aside designations. Recent prime work includes a $162.8 million STAR-CCM+ ADD 2 subscription renewal for NASA's Glenn Research Center via the Shared Services Center (August 2026), a $228.9 million Altair Grid Engine software purchase order from Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command at Stennis Space Center (May 2026), a $204.4 million sole-source Altair Hyperworks renewal for 231 units at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (March 2026), a $1.3 million electronic design automation software and business model addendum renewal for NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (June 2023), and a $663.6 thousand Mentor Graphics electronic design automation software definitive contract with a DoD Technical Center (August 2025).

Customer concentration sits with the Navy and NASA. The top five customer agencies account for 35% of recent awards by count, led by NASA's Shared Services Center (93 awards, $6.4 million combined potential value), Naval Air Warfare Center (40 awards, $12.9 million), Department of Army Research Development and Engineering Command (30 awards, $4.4 million), Naval Air Systems Command (34 awards, $3.1 million), and Naval Sea Systems Command (49 awards, $716 thousand). By potential value, Naval Air Warfare Center ranks first at $12.9 million, followed by NASA Shared Services Center at $6.4 million and NASA at $5.6 million, accounting for 65% of combined potential value. The two rankings diverge slightly — Navy commands place many small task orders, while NASA anchors larger individual awards.

Siemens PLM Software places work under three primary vehicle classes. The NASA Shared Services Center Blanket Purchase Agreement 80NSSC21A0009 (awarded June 2021, valued at approximately $4.97 million through June 2026) carries 33 task orders worth $5.1 million in combined potential value and has generated over $3.7 million in cumulative task orders across multiple NASA centers since award. A Naval Air Warfare Center indefinite delivery contract (N6893620D0008) supports 6 task orders valued at $2.1 million for STAR-CCM+ computational fluid dynamics software and support. Army BPA W15QKN17A0079 anchors 9 task orders worth $3.3 million for computational engineering and simulation software.

Activity grew from 27 awards in 2022 to 48 in 2025, with recent volume of 27 awards through October 2026. Twenty-four awards carrying $3 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure across NASA, Navy, and Army customer sets. Award volume has been stable to growth-trending since 2022, though the source data ends before the full FY2026 cycle.

Siemens PLM Software operates as a prime contractor in 89% of recent awards and delivers most work with internal resources. The SCI dataset shows zero reported invoiced revenue across FY2023–FY2025 on prime contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold and zero FTE allocation, indicating that Siemens PLM Software's federal work is either (a) structured as commercial item software renewals and subscriptions below SCI's detailed service-contract reporting scope, (b) captured under parent-company SCI records, or (c) composed primarily of product sales rather than labor-based service delivery. This is consistent with the award portfolio — the majority of prime work is software licensing renewal, subscription, and maintenance, not custom services.

The subcontractor footprint is substantial by award count but narrow by prime base. Siemens PLM Software subcontracts to major defense and aerospace primes on design, engineering, and manufacturing programs. Named prime contractors include Northrop Grumman Systems Corp (Ground-Based Strategic Deterrent engineering, manufacturing development, and production and deployment; over 10 sub-awards), Honeywell Federal Manufacturing & Technologies (National Security Campus management and operations, multiple software and licensing renewals), Lockheed Martin Corporation (TRIDENT and advanced systems programs), General Dynamics Land Systems Inc. (optionally manned fighting vehicle development), The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (DARPA research, systems engineering, modeling capability), Huntington Ingalls Inc. (in-service program support), The Mitre Corporation (systems engineering task orders), and integration and research partners including MIT Lincoln Laboratory (via Valkyrie Enterprises as intermediary), UT-Battelle LLC (Oak Ridge National Laboratory operations), and others. The sub-engagement pattern shows Siemens PLM Software functioning as a software component supplier to systems integrators and research operators, particularly in defense platforms and national laboratory operations.

Siemens Industry Software Inc. is a child of Siemens Industry, Inc., which itself operates as a foreign-owned manufacturer subsidiary within the larger Siemens Aktiengesellschaft conglomerate. The parent structure carries no SBA designations, and the subsidiary has not pursued or held any set-aside certifications. Federal competition is full-and-open, with pricing discipline on commercial software products and renewals anchoring the competitive posture. The vendor's market position rests on proprietary software (STAR-CCM+ computational fluid dynamics, Mentor Graphics electronic design automation, Altair mechanical engineering suites, Teamcenter PLM, Questa simulation tools, NX CAD/CAM, Polarion ALM, MADYMO biodynamics, and specialized packages such as ZAERO aerodynamic analysis and Terminal Doppler Weather Radar support) rather than services or labor arbitrage.
