The Digital Thread, in various incarnations, has been a core element of the PLM vision for decades. The concept of automated linkage of multiple representations of a product, each tuned to the needs of various creators and consumers along the lifecycle, is very powerful. Until recently, tracing these linkages has been primarily a manual process, extracting product information from myriad heterogeneous systems and relating them in ad hoc reports. But now, with recent advances in commercial PLM solutions, the Digital Thread, with automated linkages and traceability, has become a practical possibility for industries with complex products, such as aerospace & defense (A&D).
In response, leaders in the A&D industry are starting to implement targeted digital thread solutions and envision expanding these solutions upstream and downstream throughout the product lifecycle. With the newness of this approach there is not much available in the way of lessons learned or actual value achieved. This lack of real data is a barrier to broader investment within industry. On the other hand, solution providers lack insight into current state and future investment drivers within industry that is crucial to their solution strategies and roadmaps. This webinar presents a framework for characterizing the state of digital thread realization and initial results of collaborative research between a group of A&D OEMs and PLM solution providers to examine the current state and future trends of digital thread implementation within the industry.
Anyone with responsibility or interest in product program integration, systems engineering, PLM program planning, or more generally in digitalization or digital thread would find the presentation interesting. Specific roles would include:
During the webinar you’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
The Guide is designed to help potential PLM users evaluate the applicability and payoffs of PLM in their enterprise, and to help existing users of PLM monitor the impact it is having on their product programs.
