UberPTC at Uber: Simulation
Uber, an industrials organization in the United States, uses Kepware from PTC to support virtual testing for analysts and design leads.
Industrials teams at Uber treat PTC as the working layer for virtual testing.
“In the United States, analysts and design leads already knew where simulation went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.”
“PTC provides product lifecycle management, CAD, and industrial IoT software used by manufacturers to design and service products.”

Story
Uber did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed virtual testing to move. In the United States, analysts and design leads already knew where simulation went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
Kepware from PTC is now in that path. PTC provides product lifecycle management, CAD, and industrial IoT software used by manufacturers to design and service products. The company treats it as production tooling for virtual testing, which is why analysts and design leads live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
Uber can show how simulation is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run virtual testing on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
