In response to our customers’ needs; and in a move to provide an even more cohesive, integrated approach to the delivery and support of CAE tools, Flowmaster Group are pleased to announce the signing of a partnership agreement between Flowmaster France and EnginSoft France with immediate effect.

EnginSoft is a Computer-Aided-Engineering (CAE) consulting company providing software, services, training and research for Virtual Prototyping. They are the primary distributor for the Esteco ModeFrontier optimisation code, for which an interface to Flowmaster has also been recently announced. Employing 120 people, EnginSoft has a turnover in excess of €20 million and is internationally recognised as a leader in its field working with R&D teams from sectors including aerospace, automotive, energy, space, biomedical, rail, naval etc.

Under this agreement, EnginSoft France will assume responsibility for the sales distribution and support of Flowmaster for Southern Europe; France, Italy and Spain. All Flowmaster France personnel have transferred to EnginSoft France to ensure continuity of operation for our customers. The consolidation into one team more than doubles the technical resources available to this region’s Flowmaster customers and increases Flowmaster’s presence within the CAE market. Marie-Christine OGHLY, as the new President of EnginSoft France, is managing the transition of the business activities and staff during the next few weeks.

“The obvious synergy between Flowmaster and EnginSoft provides our customers with even more innovative solutions to meet industrial challenges; increasing quality and reducing project time. EnginSoft provide access to a range of services related to the calculation and optimisation of thermo-fluids, unmatched to date by any other provider in France” explains Marie-Christine OGHLY.

“We believe that integrating the Flowmaster France business with EnginSoft France will enable us to better serve our customers and offers greater opportunities to grow our presence in the Southern European market” explains Alan Berry, CEO of Flowmaster Group. “Transferring the business activities including all staff ensures full continuity for our customers. Flowmaster Group will work closely with EnginSoft to ensure this transition is made in as timely and smooth a fashion as possible.”
