PLM – the forgotten domain?
→ Document-driven approach
→ Products
→ Inside out: push to the market
→ Waterfall
CONTINUOUS
DELIVERY
Software
→ Data-driven approach
→ Systems / model-based
→ Outside in: Pull from the market
→ Agile / MVP* approach
Modern PLM – a product innovation platform / digital PLM
* MVP = Minimum Viable Product
Digital Transformation in PLM – the WHY
Accenture Digital PLM – June 2014
What is this digital transformation in PLM?

Digital Transformation
From Coordinated to Connected
Coordinated:
Providing the right information at the right time
in the right context
Connected:
Providing actual information for anyone connected
in any relevant context
Coordinated
Providing the right information at the right time in the right
context
Requires:
• An understanding/agreement on what’s needed
Most of the time: Delivered in documents
Coordinated
Providing the right information at the right time in the right
context
• Delivered in documents
• Activities that drive the delivery of the information
Most of the time: Predefined processes
Coordinated
Providing the right information at the right time in the right
context
• Delivered in documents
• Predefined processes
• Folders or BOM structures
Coordinated in an evolutionary scope
Providing the right information at the right time in the right context
• Delivered in documents
• Predefined processes
• Using (BOM) structures
• Overlay structures
Part of the enterprise backbone – examples: Aras / Mendix / Navigate / Netvibes / ….
➔ The coordinated Digital Thread
The Coordinated approach - summary
Advantages
• A logical evolution of traditional analog processes
• No limitations on tool usage (systems/excel/…) as long as results can be shared
(neutral formats/pdf/ data table)
• The PLM system is the System of Record for governance, traceability, and
compliance, providing the Single Source of Truth
Disadvantages
• Information details are locked in specific systems/files/applications
• Requires human effort and time to share and discover relevant information
• People are the weakest link
Connected
Providing actual information for anyone connected in any
relevant context
Requires:
• Data(sets) created by accountable persons
Breaking silos – Think about the quality and consumers of data.
Connected
Providing actual information for anyone connected in any
context
• Data(sets) & Accountable persons
• Other formats than documents/files
Using Apps & Models for datasets to share
Digital
Twin(s)
From documents to connected models – three domains
Model-Based Systems Engineering
needed to define complex products /
systems where hardware & software
are involved.
Virtual product definition, simulation
and testing before committing to the
physical world
Model-Based Definition
Provide a digital continuity between
engineering and manufacturing by
using a shared parameter-driven
3D model
No more drawings – Product Managed
Information stored around a 3D Model
Digital Twin
Managing a virtual definition
related to a physical product in
order to analyze performance,
predict maintenance and use
collected data to improve
products
Connected
Providing actual information for anyone connected in any context
• Data(sets) & Accountable persons
• Using Apps & Models for datasets to share
• The need for Master Data Management (not enough),
Standards and Data Governance
Connected
Providing actual information for anyone connected in any context
• Data(sets) & Accountable persons
• Using Apps & Models for datasets to share
• Master Data Management, Standards
and Data Governance
• The importance of an Enterprise Architecture
The Connected approach - summary
Advantages
• Allows for near real-time collaboration (speed)
• Democratization of information (connected / scalable / 360 º)
• Information can be consumed by software and algorithms
• Connected environments, the Systems of Engagement, provide a data-driven,
user-friendly environment – introducing the Authoritative Source of Truth
Disadvantages
• Information is much more granular and requires new processes and skills
• A new approach without a history of 60+ years of experience
• You will need to connect to the Systems of Record
Digital Platforms working together: coordinated & connected
The Connected Digital Thread – the building blocks
A paradigm change: From Single Source of Truth to …
The future: Federated PLM (Coordinated & Connected)
The PLM infrastructure is a mix of:
• A traditional PLM System:
System of Record
• Extended with other datasets
that might come from:
➢ Excels (disconnected)
➢ Systems of Engagement
➢ Other platforms
(ERP, CRM, MES and IIot)
Example: Heliple project SAAB Aeronautics (Heterogeneous Linked Product Lifecycle Environment)
An example of a System of Engagement – Design Reviews
System of Record
Digital Transformation: new ways of working – HOW?
This is the main challenge: Complexity & legacy: people, skills & technology
Digital Transformation
Coordinated and Connected → Evolutionary Path ?
Source: Marc Halpern (Gartner PDT Europe 2015)
Coordinated and Connected → Evolutionary Path ?
Different Data
Different Skills
Different Processes
System of Record Systems of Engagement
From Coordinated to Connected: Different Data
System of Record
Systems of Engagement
You will need both !
Service
/Operations
Service/Operations
From Coordinated to Coordinated + Connected
McKinsey – our insights/toward an integrated technology operating model
Coordinated and Connected → The need for both
Coordinated and Connected → The Need for Both
Coordinated and Connected – the Transformation
The two modes will both contribute to current and top-line business
System of Record Systems of Engagement
Coordinated and Connected – the Transformation
