PTC Inc. announced a new phase of its partnership with Garrett Motion, a leading provider of emission‑reduction and energy‑efficiency technologies for the automotive industry. The expansion builds on Garrett’s successful use of PTC’s Onshape cloud‑native CAD and PDM platform and adds PTC’s Codebeamer+ application lifecycle management (ALM) and Windchill+ product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions to the collaboration.
The new arrangement will allow Garrett to unify its engineering disciplines and broaden data access to software and hardware requirements, bills of material, product configurations, and more. By integrating Onshape, Codebeamer+, and Windchill+, Garrett aims to accelerate its SaaS‑driven transformation of product development tools and practices, replacing legacy solutions and creating an AI‑ready architecture for future product innovation.
Garrett Motion’s business focuses on turbocharging, electric boosting, and solutions for zero‑emission vehicles, including fuel‑cell compressors for hydrogen vehicles and thermal management systems for battery electric vehicles. The partnership gives Garrett a single, cloud‑based platform that connects design, engineering, and manufacturing data, enabling faster time‑to‑market and higher product quality.
PTC’s strategy centers on its Intelligent Product Lifecycle vision, which seeks to embed AI and data analytics across the entire product development process. The addition of Codebeamer+ and Windchill+ to Garrett’s Onshape environment demonstrates how PTC’s integrated suite can provide a digital thread that spans from concept to production, a key requirement for automotive suppliers navigating electrification and tightening emissions regulations.
CEO Olivier Rabiller of Garrett Motion said the collaboration “enables us to unify our product development and IT landscape on an AI‑ready architecture, advancing the differentiated technologies we bring to customers in the automotive industry and beyond.” CEO Neil Barua of PTC added that the expansion “builds on Garrett’s success with Onshape and demonstrates how our Intelligent Product Lifecycle vision, coupled with deep integrations between CAD, PLM, and ALM, can transform engineering, build a product data foundation required for AI, and drive greater value across the organization.”
The partnership expansion underscores PTC’s broader goal of deepening customer relationships and expanding adoption of its core PLM, ALM, and CAD platforms across the automotive supply chain. By providing a unified engineering suite, PTC is positioning itself as a key enabler of digital transformation for manufacturers that must accelerate product development, reduce time‑to‑market, and meet evolving regulatory and sustainability demands.
