About Comet Solutions, Inc. (http://www.cometsolutions.com)
Comet Solutions, Inc. breaks the boundaries of simulation by providing a full line of software applications that enable manufacturers to achieve a product development process driven by engineering intent. By providing the industry's first Single Project Environment - workgroups have a "place for simulation" that powers a streamlined workflow while allowing engineers to use existing CAD/CAE/PLM tools. Comet software removes the dependency on CAD so companies significantly improve their ability to benefit from simulation results during early stages of conceptual engineering and feasibility studies. Comet's reusable Simulation Templates bring insight from simulation much earlier in the product design process, placing it in the hands of the entire organization. With Comet software, companies exploit the full potential of CAD/CAE/PLM tools and explore more design alternatives, enabling the rapid development and delivery of more innovative, higher quality, and cost-effective products.
