An Aerospace & Defense PLM Action Group (AD PAG)-sponsored project team undertook the challenge of advancing industry’s awareness and understanding of the current practical value potential of digital twin-digital thread (Dtw-Dth) investment. They did this by benchmarking use cases using commercially available Dtw-Dth solutions, including software and services. Domain experts from AD PAG member companies partnered with four industry organizations and engaged with seven leading solution providers to execute the benchmarks
.An initial set of use cases was proposed by domain expert members of the AD PAG Digital Twin-Digital Thread project team. All four partnering organizations contributed use cases from their internal Dtw-Dth project libraries. The use case selection and refinement process with each of the solution providers followed a structured, collaborative approach to ensure the most relevant and well-defined scenarios were chosen for demonstration. In the end, 28 use cases were selected for demonstration.
This document is a reference resource offered to the PLM community that captures all 80 use cases created and assembled in the course of the benchmark project. That includes the initial set of use cases drafted by the AD PAG Dtw-Dth project team plus the use cases contributed by the partnering organizations and the use cases negotiated with the participating solution providers.
