Geometric has over two decades of experience across product lifecycle services and software product development, as well as over 65 years of experience in engineering service that it intends to leverage to offer key solution-based offerings in the product realization space to its customer.

Speaking about the formation of this group, Mr. Venkatesh Jagannath, Senior Vice President and Head, Consulting & Technology, Geometric said, “Customers today are demanding ‘solutions’ to their problems and are no longer looking at simply implementing a technology. The Consulting Group at Geometric is responsible for driving this solution-based approach in all our customer engagements and combining our expertise across engineering services and engineering IT for suggesting unique architectures and solutions to meet customer objectives.”

Mr. Sreekanth Jayanti, Principal Consultant, Geometric added, “The role and usage of PLM across the entire product realization cycle is expanding, and customers are looking at opportunities for further leveraging their PLM assets. They want to increase its ROI, and are also rationalizing their application portfolio in line with business needs. The addition of our consultancy services will enable them to move in this direction with a definitive roadmap and benefit from Geometric’s rich experience in the space.”

The Group offers consultancy in the areas of technology assessment and roadmap, application portfolio rationalization, and PLM ROI improvement to OEMs across multiple industries including the automotive, aerospace, off-highway, and heavy engineering.
