The company's innovative software tools assist clients with collaborative training utilizing interactive 3D graphics (aka, "serious games"). 3Dsolve's core competencies include multi-media, software engineering, digital artwork, instructional design and project management for use in state-of-the-art simulation learning solutions.

"The acquisition of 3Dsolve will strengthen our ongoing initiatives in the rapidly growing training and simulation market, allowing us to provide a broader array of solutions and services to our expanding customer base," said Dale Bennett, President, Lockheed Martin Simulation, Training & Support (LM STS).
