Opportunity
Simplifying Simulations, Reducing Barriers
Engineers relied on three separate applications for static, dynamic, and finite element analysis. Each tool had a steep learning curve, required duplicate data entry, and slowed adoption of simulation practices.
As key experts neared retirement, the client also needed a solution to transfer knowledge to the next generation of engineers and grow its internal modeling community.

Solution
A Single Desktop Tool, Designed for People
After a collaborative product discovery phase, SEP developed a single desktop application that merged the three separate tools into one. Engineers could now perform static, dynamic, and finite element analysis in a unified system.
To make the tool easier to adopt, SEP designed the interface to mirror the familiar Microsoft Office experience. This lowered training barriers and improved adoption across teams.
The result was more than software—it was a tool built to foster collaboration, speed problem-solving, and ensure engineering expertise could be passed on effectively.
