Siemens defines the digital thread for aerospace & defense
The foundation for digital transformation
At Siemens, digital threads are our roadmap of industry-specific business workflows. They digitally connect all tasks and processes in the value chain based on the challenges to be solved and provide the foundation for digital transformation that revolutionizes the way products are developed, produced and optimized. Recent CIMdata research indicates that digital thread investment within the ecosystem of industrial users, their customers, suppliers and solution providers is poised for rapid growth.
Aerospace digital thread
In this webinar, Todd Tuthill and Jim Roche will educate participants on how initial implementations of targeted aerospace digital thread solutions have provided proof points of value and essential learnings. They will guide you through the digital thread’s rise to prominence in the value footprint as well as go through case studies of digital thread realization, keeping in view the larger data landscape that is core to the value of the digital thread.
Aerospace digital transformation
Five levels of aerospace digital transformation maturity are outlined in the webinar. They are:
- Configuration
- Connection
- Automation
- Generative design
- Closed-loop optimization
Watch the webinar to get an overview of the five levels of aerospace digital transformation maturity and to learn where the aerospace industry is currently in its digital transformation. CIMdata research will help round out your knowledge as it offers insights into the industry’s progress and challenges companies are facing as they work toward digital transformation and establishing an aerospace digital thread.
