Workshop organised by AFNeT PLM Task Force in collaboration with CETIM, GALIA, GIFAS

Enabling the Digital Thread in industrial supply chains allows the reuse of information and the traceability of modifications and decisions throughout the product lifecycle. In the last years, a set of standards have started to be available to implementors to answer the information exchange needs between each phase of the life cycle - particularly between engineering, manufacturing and quality functions.

This Seminar aims at sharing the manufacturers priorities, the best practices in industry and the remaining bottle necks which still need to be closed in order to enable the seamless Digital Thread.
