PLM for product engineering
and product management
These are the main factors that drive digital engineering and product management, from product engineering all the way to operations, making advanced and forward thinking product lifecycle management (PLM) a must.
The evolution of PLM in the enterprise

Digital twin vs. digital information twin
Digital engineering and PLM
The digital thread:
benefits and implementation
Once all the information created throughout the project engineering and product management process becomes available digitally in the Product Data Backbone of a PLM system, the relationships and dependencies within PLM processes, that used to only exist in the heads of relevant employees, are now visible and clearly traceable through the system. This allows companies to, for example, draw product engineering conclusions and perform impact analyses for predictive maintenance purposes. This is what’s called the digital thread.
