BigBear.ai’s Simulation for AutoCAD Showcased by Autodesk CEO

COLUMBIA, Md., Oct. 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BigBear.ai (NYSE: BBAI), a leading provider of AI-enabled business intelligence solutions, was prominently demonstrated alongside Autodesk CEO Andrew Anagnost, showcasing the partnership’s AutoCAD discrete event simulation functionality at Autodesk’s annual Digital Convergence Event.

This year’s event focused on the integration of facility design with production system design. Andrew Anagnost, CEO of Autodesk, shared his vision of creating frictionless interfaces between architects, process engineering, design, and operations. Andrew spoke to the importance of converging workflow between manufacturing and architectural design, and the need for advanced toolsets to predict design success before investing capital. Autodesk has teamed with BigBear.ai to deliver this vision to designers, builders, and planners in engineering and manufacturing around the world.

Autodesk’s solutions are now directly integrated with BigBear.ai’s ProModel Discrete Event Simulator, enabling users to accurately simulate entire multi-faceted systems inside of AutoCAD, the world’s market-leading architectural engineering and construction design platform. Combined with the power of Autodesk’s Factory Design Utilities, these simulation capabilities provide not only the spatial representations of the planned space in 2D and 3D, but also provide planners with actionable insights to plan and execute on installation and confirmation of optimally cost-effective and agile project solutions. As a result, AutoCAD professionals are empowered with confidence that their design will produce the correct number of products in the desired amount of time, before ever spending a dollar on implementation, trial, and error. 

“Autodesk’s vision for the future of CAD design is enabling optimized sustainability and efficiency outcomes from planning to completion,” remarked Mandy Long, CEO of BigBear.ai. “We have been thrilled to see the industry's enthusiastic response to Autodesk’s ProModel integration and look forward to continuing our mission to bring AI-powered innovations to market.”
