V5 Licensing
In V5, configurations of licenses are purchases. For example,
purchasing a CAC+FPE+HDX+MCE configuration would include
these elements:
CAC – Base V5 PLMExpress
FPE – Fabricated Product Creation Package
HDX – Mechanical Shape Design Package
MCE – Mechanical Product Creation Package
Additional licenses are also available as add-ons and shareable
products.
3DEXPERIENCE Platform Licensing
In the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, roles are purchased instead of
configurations. The role includes a set of specific licenses that
are typically used together for a specific job task. Several roles
are shown in Figure 1–6.

For example, the MDG (Mechanical Designer Role) includes 25
different apps. These individual apps are still identified by their
trigram.
Roles are available for:
• System Architects
• Mechanical Designers
• Creative Designers
• Surface Designers
• Decision Makers
