Supporting strategically selected academic institutions worldwide in
order to develop the automotive life cycle management (PLM) team of the
future is the mission of Partners for the Advancement of Collaborative
Engineering Education (PACE). PACE links corporations such as Sun,
General Motors, EDS and UGS PLM Solutions together to develop an
integrated, parametrics-based approach to all aspects of a product's
life - from its design inception, through its manufacture, marketing,
distribution, maintenance and, ultimately, into recycling and disposal.
Besides educational contributions from PACE Partners, other
corporations contribute valuable products and services to PACE
Institutions and are noted as Pace Contributors and Supporters.
Currently, PACE projects include Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer
Aided Manufacturing (CAM), Computer Aided Engineering (CAE)/Simulation,
3D Plant Layout, Product Data Management (PDM) -- Supply Chain
Management, Digital Collaboration and Digital Design.
