American Express GBTAmerican Express GBT Adopts Ansys for Virtual Testing
American Express GBT, an industrials organization in the United States, uses Ansys Discovery from Ansys to support virtual testing for analysts and design leads.
American Express GBT folded Ansys Discovery into virtual testing so analysts and design leads share one view of simulation.
“Inside American Express GBT, virtual testing used to depend on whoever still had the latest file.”
“Analysts and design leads needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.”

Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Productivity | Fewer stalled items because simulation has a clear owner |
| Productivity | Handoffs in virtual testing sit in a shared queue instead of a mailbox trail |
| Capability | New joiners can see how virtual testing actually runs |
Story
Inside American Express GBT, virtual testing used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in industrials groups working out of the United States. Analysts and design leads needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
American Express GBT uses Ansys Discovery from Ansys as the working layer for simulation. Ansys (now part of Synopsys) supplies engineering simulation software for structures, fluids, electronics, and optics. The practical change is simple: virtual testing has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What American Express GBT gets from Ansys is a durable place to run virtual testing and a way for analysts and design leads to see the same simulation at the same time.
