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 |
| Risk and compliance | Synopsys EDA is the governed place analysts and design leads use for virtual testing |
Story
Westlake grew simulation faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, materials teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Analysts and design leads were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Synopsys EDA put virtual testing on Synopsys. Synopsys provides electronic design automation and software integrity tools used by semiconductor and software engineering teams. Westlake keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so analysts and design leads do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier virtual testing. Simulation is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join analysts and design leads without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
