What Scx Solutions does

SCx Solutions Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-headquartered engineering simulation firm founded in 2022 that operates as an authorized channel partner, consulting firm, and training provider for Hexagon MSC Software (Cradle CFD, MSC Nastran, Adams, Actran, Marc, Dytran, Romax, CAEfatigue, HxGN Virtual Manufacturing, Digimat) and IES (the IESVE suite including Virtual Environment, ICL Digital Twins, iCD, iVN, iSCAN, IES Live, and IES TaP). The company's core technology is computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and computer-aided engineering (CAE) simulation applied to thermal, fluid flow, and energy-efficiency problems, with deep domain specialization in Urban Heat Island analysis using LES and RANS turbulence models, conjugate heat transfer, and radiation modeling. It serves nine primary verticals: built environment, data centre, HVAC, industrial equipment, clean energy (solar, wind, tidal), aerospace, automotive, electronics, and oil & gas.

Its revenue model is multi-stream: (i) one-time software license resale of Hexagon and IES products across India, SEA, and ANZ; (ii) CAE consulting and engineering services using the same software stack; (iii) customized multiphysics training for commercial customers, academia, and university student groups; and (iv) an online consulting platform offering instant connection with CAE/CFD experts. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales with channel partner distribution, anchored by authorized partnerships with Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence and IES APAC plus consultation alliances with regional firms such as Softflow, HY M&E, IFS, RDT, and UKMP.

SCx was founded by Makoto Shibahara, former President & CEO of Software Cradle Co., Ltd. (acquired by MSC Software and integrated into Hexagon in 2016), and currently Head of the CFD Centre of Excellence at Hexagon. The leadership bench of five named senior members carries 70+ years of combined CFD/CAE experience from multinationals including Cummins, Honeywell, Aker Solutions, Atlas Copco, Air Products, and Toyota. The firm operates from Singapore (HQ, Prudential Tower), Pune, India (Technology Centre, opened 2023), and Australia (opened 2024), with service coverage extending into Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Qatar. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investment or acquisition activity.
