X-Plan

What X-Plan does

X-Plan S.R.L. (operating as X-Plan, Ingeniería Colaborativa) is an Argentine value-added reseller and services firm headquartered at Santamarina 1311 in Victoria, Buenos Aires, with a secondary training academy in Buenos Aires province. Founded in 1996, the company has operated for more than 25 years as the official Siemens PLM Software partner in Argentina, holding Platinum Expert Partner status and consecutive Siemens Partner of the Year 2020 and 2021 awards in South America. X-Plan distributes and implements the Siemens digital industries portfolio, including NX (CAD/CAM/CAE), Solid Edge (CAD/CAM/CAE with synchronous technology), Teamcenter (PLM), Tecnomatix (Process Simulate and Plant Simulation), Opcenter (MOM/MES), and Moldex3D (injection molding simulation), together with complementary tools such as Robot Expert, Foran (naval architecture), and FEMAP with NX Nastran. X--Plan also develops and sells GestPlan Pro, its own proprietary APS/MRP production planning solution with more than 30 years of development that integrates with Siemens PLM for shipyard and naval applications.

X-Plan serves two principal customer segments. The primary segment is industrial manufacturers in oil and gas (Moto Mecánica Argentina), agricultural machinery (Metalfor), naval architecture (Frers Naval Architecture Engineering), energy and mining (Tassaroli SA), and aerospace and nuclear (INVAP), with documented outcomes including a 50% productivity improvement at Metalfor (NX + Teamcenter implementation in 8 months), a 40% lead-time reduction and 30% faster project delivery at Tassaroli SA, and improved product quality at Frers. The secondary segment is educational and technical institutions, including Universidad Nacional de Quilmes, Instituto Balseiro, Escuela Técnica Roberto Rocca, Instituto de Automovilismo Deportivo, and Universidad Tecnológica Nacional, which receive academic NX/Solid Edge licenses, instructor training, and curriculum support.

The business model combines four revenue streams: software licensing pass-through from Siemens (recurring), implementation and consulting (professional services), technical support via the X-Plan Support Center for NX, Solid Edge, Teamcenter, and Simcenter users (recurring), and training services delivered through both in-person courses at the Victoria training center and an online course platform that sells courses ranging from ARS 422,800 to ARS 951,300 with a 50% university student discount. Go-to-market is built on enterprise field sales, Siemens channel partnerships, industry symposia in naval, aerospace and nuclear verticals, technical workshops (including Simcenter workshops), and academic partnerships, supported by a marketing presence on the company blog, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Cumulative metrics include 250+ industrial clients implemented and more than 2,500 professionals trained.
