Cadcam Group

What Cadcam Group does

Cadcam Group is a privately held digital transformation and PLM consulting company headquartered in Zagreb, Croatia, founded in 1991 by electrical engineer Zlatko Šimunec. The company specializes in the resale, implementation, and support of Dassault Systèmes software (3DEXPERIENCE, CATIA, SIMULIA, ENOVIA, DELMIA) for manufacturing enterprises, and additionally develops its own proprietary ECAD/MCAD collaboration product called MECODES. It holds Dassault Systèmes Platinum Partner status and serves as the only authorized Certified Education Partner (CEP) in the Adriatic region, with operating subsidiaries in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Slovenia, and recently Hungary.

The company serves more than 350 enterprise customers across automotive (Rimac, AD Plastik, Renault, Yazaki), aerospace (Pipistrel, Konelek, Utva), defense (Prvi Partizan), energy (Končar), consumer goods (Elan, Swatch), and industrial manufacturing, addressing pain points around 3D design, product lifecycle management, production planning, and digital factory transformation. Its service portfolio is organized around four lines: 3D Design and Methodology, Production Planning and Optimization (including DELMIA Ortems advanced scheduling), Product Lifecycle Management on 3DEXPERIENCE, and broader Digital Transformation consulting, supplemented by an education and certification business.

The business model combines professional services revenue (consulting, implementation, customization, ongoing support) with software distribution of Dassault Systèmes products on subscription/annual terms and education/certification fees. Go-to-market is consultative enterprise field sales, anchored by a Business Value Assessment engagement model and supported by a regional network of country managers and certified technical specialists. Pricing is custom and quote-based; no public pricing is disclosed. The company is founder-owned, has not raised external capital, and does not disclose revenue.

Direct peers

• Technia: Nordic-headquartered Dassault Systèmes Platinum partner offering the same combination of PLM/CATIA/SIMULIA implementation, training, and engineering services to manufacturers. Closest behavioral peer - same vendor ecosystem, same solution reselling plus services model, same GTM toward enterprise manufacturers.
• CENIT AG: German-listed Dassault Systèmes Platinum partner specializing in PLM, digital twin, and 3DEXPERIENCE implementations for industrial customers across automotive and manufacturing. Directly comparable in partner tier, services portfolio, and customer base.
• Mensch und Maschine Software SE: German MDAX-listed Dassault partner focused on CAD, CAM, PLM and BIM software distribution plus related services to industrial and AEC customers. Operates a near-identical model: vendor partnership, regional direct sales, professional services, and training.
• PROSTEP AG: German PLM integration specialist and Dassault Systèmes partner focused on data exchange, digital thread, and PLM interoperability - close analogue to CADCAM Group's MECODES proposition and broader PLM practice.

Emerging players

• Tata Technologies: India-headquartered engineering services and digital transformation firm covering PLM, CAD, and manufacturing IT across automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery. Overlaps significantly with CADCAM Group's services portfolio but at much larger scale and global reach.

Broad incumbents

• HCL Technologies: Global IT services major with a dedicated Engineering and R&D Services practice (including PLM, CAD/CAE, and Dassault implementations) serving many of the same discrete-manufacturing verticals. Wide incumbent rather than a head-to-head regional competitor.
• Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence: Division of Hexagon AB offering CAD/CAM, simulation, and manufacturing software plus related services to discrete manufacturers. Sells some overlapping solutions (e.g., simulation) and competes for the same digital transformation wallet inside large industrials.
• AKKA Technologies: European engineering and digital services group (now part of Capgemini) with strong automotive, aerospace, and industrial customers served by PLM and digital twin practices - analogous end-market exposure to CADCAM Group's manufacturing book.

Others

• ESI Group: French simulation software vendor (now part of Dassault Systèmes) whose SIMULIA-adjacent position makes it a peer category competitor for the same structural-simulation and digital-twin use cases that CADCAM Group addresses with SIMULIA Abaqus.

Regional players

• AVL List GmbH: Austria-headquartered engineering services company focused on powertrain and vehicle development, using CATIA-class 3DEXPERIENCE tooling. Comparable as a regional European engineering services firm working with overlapping industrial customers (Renault, automotive suppliers, aerospace).
