CIMdata’s 2020 PLM Market & Industry Forum: “Products, Smartly Connected” SESSION 2 - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

The practice at successful engineering/product companies uses concurrent engineering performed by teams of engineers and technicians synchronizing their efforts at key milestones to assess progress and readiness for mass production. The original motivations for synchronization are being challenged by new technologies and processes like additive manufacturing and agile development. New tools and analytics can help across the product lifecycle. This presentation will focus on how siloed development must evolve to meet today’s product lifecycle challenges.

Digital twins are the best approach to effectively address this business problem. This presentation will describe the issues faced by industrial companies and how a properly implemented digital twin that connects data across different BOMs can reduce the impact of component obsolescence.
