ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm, announces an upcoming free educational webinar, "The What and Why of Digital Threads and Twins – A Report from the Field." This insightful webinar will take place on Thursday, 13 March 2024, at 11:00 a.m. (EDT) and will last for one hour.

Digital threads and digital twins do not create product data; instead, they serve as frameworks for interrelating and combining product lifecycle data to provide valuable insights about a product and how it is produced, operated, and serviced. This webinar will explain the what and the why of digital threads and twins. The possibilities are limitless and represent both the challenge and the opportunity.

This webinar will also present early findings from an ongoing research project involving several major industry organizations, including the AD PAG, AIAA, OMG, ProStep iViP, and SAE International. These organizations are developing a set of use cases and working with seven digital thread and digital twin solution providers to test and evaluate their implementation and performance.

According to James Roche, CIMdata's Aerospace & Defense Practice Director and the host for this webinar, "The essential concepts of digital thread and digital twin are foundational to product lifecycle management (PLM), and examples can be found in industry that go back decades. Today, however, within an enterprise context of digital transformation, there is heightened corporate attention and investment to elevate and extend PLM with digital threads and digital twins that deliver value across all phases of the product lifecycle. The methods and tools for implementation are advancing rapidly in response. This is an exciting time of challenge and opportunity."
