How BIOVIA Compares to Other Scientific Software

Capability	Typical Scientific Software (Point Solutions & Open Source)	The BIOVIA Unified Platform Approach
Platform Architecture	Fragmented systems that are specialized for individual tasks (e.g., modeling, ELN, or data analysis).	A single, integrated platform that unifies all scientific disciplines and functions.
Data Management	Data is stored in separate, disconnected systems, leading to inconsistency and manual data transfer.	A unified data model creates one "single source of truth" for all scientific information.
Lifecycle Coverage	Focus on specific stages like discovery, lab management, or manufacturing, creating gaps in the digital thread.	A seamless digital thread from early discovery to manufacturing and quality control ("Molecule to Manufacturing").
Collaboration	Collaboration is often limited to specific teams or departments, making cross-functional work difficult.	Connects all stakeholders—R&D, labs, quality, manufacturing—in a single, real-time, collaborative environment.
AI & Analytics	AI models are trained on siloed, incomplete datasets, limiting their predictive power and context.	Scientific AI is trained on a complete, contextualized dataset, delivering accurate and relevant insights.
Compliance & Validation	Compliance and validation are often managed manually or are specific to one application, requiring significant effort.	A "validation-ready" platform with built-in GxP support, electronic signatures, and audit trails to streamline compliance.
Support & Deployment	Support may be community-based or vendor-specific for one tool. Deployment is often limited to one model (cloud or on-premise).	Enterprise-level global support across the entire platform with flexible deployment options (Cloud, On-Premise, or Hybrid).

How Leaders Succeed with BIOVIA

💡 Customer Story: R&D Customer Saves $30 Million Annually with BIOVIA

Challenge: The R&D of a company was facing significant inefficiencies, including manual data mining and a 30-40% repetition of experimental work due to a lack of knowledge sharing.
Solution: The company deployed BIOVIA Pipeline Pilot to automate data delivery and established a BIOVIA-based digital backbone for its labs, creating a "paperless science" environment for 4,000 scientists.
Results: The BIOVIA platform enabled an "In-silico first" strategy, fostered collaboration and increased lab productivity, resulting in estimated savings of $30 million per year.

💡 Customer Story: Global CPG Leader Transforms Virtual Product Development with BIOVIA

Challenge: A multinational CPG company was hindered by poor R&D connectivity, lengthy compliance cycles, and the constant need to "reinvent the wheel" for new products.
Solution: The company adopted BIOVIA ONE Lab and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to drive a "model-first" innovation strategy, capturing structured data to build predictive models for everything from recipe performance to packaging strength.
Results: The BIOVIA solution created a user-friendly environment for virtual product development, democratized simulation for all R&D teams, and dramatically improved data-driven innovation, allowing them to predict consumer opinions and reduce plastic in packaging.

💡 Customer Story: Large Biopharma Accelerates Drug Design with BIOVIA AI

Challenge: A leading biopharmaceutical company was interested in incorporating AI/machine learning into small molecule drug discovery to accelerate timelines and reduce costs, but found that most of the existing AI/machine learning models couldn't incorporate critical 3D protein-ligand information.
Solution: They used BIOVIA Generative Therapeutics Design (GTD) with an existing dataset to generate and optimize new lead compounds.
Results: By combining AI and 3D pharmacophore modeling, BIOVIA GTD not only re-identified the company's own clinical candidates but also generated 41 closely related compounds and other novel chemical structures within months, proving its ability to shorten timelines and discover new IP.

What BIOVIA is offering is a mature, cloud-based system for enhancing the power of drug design teams. It enables mixing of explicit chemical, physiochemical properties with 2D ML-models and 3D pharmacophore models to obtain useful suggestions at various stages of the drug discovery process.
