Challenge

As a fast-growing startup in the offshore survey sector, DLV Technologies faced the challenge of delivering precise, high-quality engineering solutions within tight resource constraints. The company needed reliable, cost-effective 3D design and simulation tools to handle complex sub-sea geotechnical projects, as well as hands-on technical support to accelerate deployment and maximize return on investment. With all engineering and fabrication handled in-house, efficiency, agility, and clear client communication were critical to their success.

Results

With SOLIDWORKS and Ohmycad's tailored startup program, DLV Technologies unlocked advanced design traceability, seamless cloud collaboration, and robust simulation capabilities. This empowered the team to deliver numerous detailed designs, expand from a home office to a fully equipped warehouse, and elevate its reputation in the offshore engineering industry. The accessible support and agile deployment enabled rapid growth, operational excellence, and enhanced client confidence.

About your Customer

DLV Technologies is an engineering company and turnkey solution provider specializing in the offshore survey industry, with a focus on sub-sea geotechnical work. All design, engineering, and fabrication work is performed in-house, providing clients with a comprehensive solution.

The Challenge

DLV Technologies, a startup specializing in turnkey engineering solutions for the offshore survey industry, needed to overcome the hurdles of limited initial resources while establishing itself as a trusted provider of complex sub-sea geotechnical systems. The company required powerful 3D CAD tools to produce precise models and run simulations, robust enough to meet demanding engineering standards, yet flexible and accessible for a small but ambitious team. Achieving this level of technical excellence and operational efficiency was mission-critical for winning new business and scaling up quickly.

The Solution

DLV Technologies discovered SOLIDWORKS and Ohmycad's 3DEXPERIENCE program, tailored specifically to startups. After considering the need for best-in-class design capabilities, cloud accessibility, and responsive support, DLV chose this solution for its unmatched integration of advanced 3D design and simulation with expert guidance. Implementing SOLIDWORKS enabled the team to showcase their engineering prowess directly to clients, using dynamic 3D visualizations and simulations. The founder shared: "SOLIDWORKS has been pivotal because I've been able to demonstrate exactly my capabilities, and I've gone from sitting at home in my office at my desk to now, having a fully outfitted warehouse. I would 100% recommend using SOLIDWORKS." Ohmycad's ongoing support and training ensured the team maximized the platform's value from day one.

The Results

Within just 1 year, DLV Technologies delivered numerous engineering designs and transitioned from a single desk to occupying an entire warehouse, illustrating remarkable business growth. The integration of SOLIDWORKS and Ohmycad's services provided the agility and technical edge needed to exceed client expectations and build a strong market presence in offshore engineering. Metrics highlight this transformation: time in operation—1 year; numerous designs delivered; office expansion from 1 desk to a full warehouse; and numerous support interactions with Ohmycad, reflecting a deeply collaborative partnership. The founder’s endorsement underlines the impact:                    "SOLIDWORKS has been pivotal... I would 100% recommend using SOLIDWORKS."
