Replay Webinar About our Speaker
Do any of the following statements about aerospace OEM and supplier collaboration sound familiar?
- Each company uses its own PLM and CAD solutions leading to different data formats and mechanisms for data exchange.
- Maintaining data synchronization across multiple instances of software platforms.
- Assuring all IP protection and data security protocols are met
The Aerospace & Defense PLM Action Group (AD PAG), administered by CIMdata, has been exploring the topic of Global Collaboration since 2017. Initial research focused on identifying those areas of collaboration during product development that would provide the best ROI if improved. The AD PAG’s Global Collaboration workgroup is currently developing a future vision of how the data exchange mechanism between the OEM and their suppliers should work.
This webinar will explore some of the problems they want to overcome and their evolving ideas for the future. Industries beyond aerospace, such as automotive and heavy machinery that must deal with their own extensive supply chains, will benefit from the lessons learned and the future vision of the large aerospace players.
What will I learn?
- You will learn about the different collaboration mechanisms used in aerospace today and their problems.
- You will learn how those lessons can apply to your own company and dealings with your supply chain.
- You will understand the forward-thinking aerospace engineers have toward collaboration.
- You will learn about the step-by-step collaboration process they recommend.
Who should attend?
Product planners and managers, MCAD team leaders, supply chain managers, senior-level MCAD users, product managers, procurement staff, or anyone who wants to learn about the collaboration between an OEM and their supply chain.
During the webinar you’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
