6 The company EnginSoft was founded in 1984, thanks to the combination of initiatives and competences in the engineering sectors of CAE, virtual prototyping, manufacturing processes simulation, idp (Intelligent Digital Prototyping) and, generally speaking, Scientific Information Technologies applied to product optimization, with regard to both the technical profile and process and marketing metrics. Having today become the partner for choice for leading Italian industrial groups, EnginSoft boasts, as far as virtual prototyping is concerned: a staff consisting of over 80 experts with different specializations; more than 1000 installed licenses of the main commercial software; over 800 customers; a constant growing, that allow it to be the most important organization in Italy and the second in Europe in its sector. EnginSoft's distinguishing mark is the multidisciplinary of the specific technical competences, that qualifies it as a unique partner for companies dealing with CAE and virtual prototyping problems, in relation to both the use of commercial software and the development of tailored-made solutions. The completeness of the services offered does not only regard the complementary nature of the supported software technologies (for one of which, modefrontier, EnginSoft is the developer) and the associated applications, but also the variety of educational and training initiatives and the capability of finalizing and coordinating public funded industrial research projects. Being clearly aware that, in order to take a real advantage of new technologies, it is necessary for them to suit the specific innovation project of the company and the aims pursued, EnginSoft proposes a CAE assessment service, that marks out the application context and the reasons for the CAE development plan, in relation to both the technologies to be acquired and integrated and the network to be set up. EnginSoft has five offices in Italy: Trento, Padua, Bergamo, Florence and Mesagne (province of Brindisi).
