Vertiv and Dassault Systèmes Partner to Simulate Nvidia AI Factories Before Buildout

Dassault Systèmes and Vertiv $VRT announced a collaboration to configure, simulate, and validate AI factory infrastructure using virtual twins before physical construction begins, targeting a reduction in the defined infrastructure deployment period by up to 50% and up to 10x faster configuration from initial requirements. Under the assumptions in Vertiv's model, the combined approach can bring AI capacity online approximately 10 weeks sooner than a modeled conventional baseline, generating up to 30% more cumulative token output within 12 months of project kickoff at the same installed capacity. The companies noted that these projected gains result strictly from earlier facility readiness and do not reflect improved operating efficiency or a measured customer result. The partnership integrates Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform with Vertiv OneCore hybrid-built data center solutions and SimReady power and cooling reference designs, built around the Nvidia Vera Rubin DSX AI Factory reference design and Nvidia Omniverse DSX Blueprint. "The winners in AI will be those who can turn computing capacity into productive capacity fastest." — Scott Armul, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Vertiv.
