Siemens Digital Industries Software (formerly Siemens PLM Software) is a business unit of Siemens AG that develops software for engineering, manufacturing, and industrial operations. Its portfolio includes Teamcenter (product lifecycle management), NX (CAD/CAM/CAE), Simcenter (simulation and test), Tecnomatix (manufacturing engineering), Opcenter (manufacturing operations management/MES), Polarion (application lifecycle management), Mendix (low‑code development), and MindSphere (industrial IoT). The organization is headquartered in Plano, Texas, with global R&D and support.

For the chemical sector, Siemens Digital Industries Software supports plant and process design, system simulation and digital twins of equipment and facilities, as well as production planning, scheduling, and quality management. Opcenter applications address MES, batch execution, genealogy/traceability, and laboratory and formulation management, while Teamcenter and Polarion provide data and requirements traceability across engineering and compliance workflows. The software integrates with automation (e.g., DCS/PLC), historians, and enterprise systems to unify engineering, operations, and maintenance data, helping improve process safety analysis, asset performance, and regulatory documentation throughout the lifecycle of chemical products and plants.
