CIMdata to Host a Free Webinar on Why Digital Twins are a Big Deal

This free educational webinar will look at the confusion surrounding digital twin definitions and the complexity of developing a good plan.

ANN ARBOR, Michigan, USA February 18, 2022—CIMdata, Inc., the leading global product lifecycle management strategic management consulting and research firm, announces a free educational webinar, “Digital Twin - Why the big deal?” The webinar will take place on Thursday, March 10, at 11:00 a.m. (EST) and last for one hour.

The digital twin concept has legs. Most solution providers have included the digital twin in their marketing material, if not their products. This webinar will examine CIMdata’s view on digital twins, what they are, why they are important, some of the challenges in implementing a digital twin, including the need for a functioning digital thread/web, and remedies to the challenges. This webinar will help attendees:

  • Learn how CIMdata’s PLM definition is different from other market influencers.
  • Understand CIMdata’s solution provider-neutral definition of the digital twin, digital thread (i.e., a digital web), and underlying concepts.
  • Learn how to use these definitions and educate executives and team members.
  • Learn about CIMdata’s approach to developing requirements and a roadmap to define and implement a digital thread/web and digital twin capabilities.

According to webinar host Tom Gill, CIMdata’s Practice Manager for PLM Enterprise Value & Integration, “The use of the digital twin term has grown rapidly over the past few years and is becoming a high-priority strategy in many industrial companies. In CIMdata’s discussions, we find that understanding the benefits and how to achieve them are immature. This webinar will help attendees better understand what a digital twin is, what it can do, and how to implement it.”

Tom Gill has 35 years of experience applying computer-based solutions to engineering and manufacturing. Before joining CIMdata, he worked as an independent PLM consultant after spending more than 20 years at high-volume manufacturing companies. Mr. Gill has worked in numerous industries, including fabrication & assembly, food & beverage, defense, chemical, and medical devices. He has executed PLM strategy projects, solution evaluation and selection projects, deployment planning, and training development for industrial clients.

This webinar will help anyone responsible for defining and managing product information-related business processes, such as directors and managers in the areas of product development, manufacturing, and service.

During the webinar, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
