Minimum Model-Based Definition (MBD) for Type Design Certification is important to the Aerospace and Defense industry because multiple and ever-changing engineering and manufacturing software tools used to design and produce a product add time and cost by requiring data representation changes to maintain a current definition of the product.
This position paper captures the list of minimum data items required for standard MBD for Type Design Certification. The paper identifies the necessary Part Types and data items within each that are needed to develop, build, and certify the product. The paper first presents use cases As Is today without model-based definition support, including the business impact. The paper then lists To Be (desired state) use cases once minimum MBD requirements are met, including the business benefits. This latest release of the paper identifies specifics of the minimum required list of data items necessary for minimum MBD support. Terms in this paper are defined in the common AD PAG Glossary on the AD PAG web site (www.ad-pag.com).
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.
