Today most manufactured products are smart and connected, whether they should be or not. This session will focus on the issues that are faced by companies developing such products and will offer some insights into how industry might improve their development and lifecycle management processes to meet these evolving requirements.

 

 

 

The practice at successful engineering/product companies uses concurrent engineering performed by teams of engineers and technicians synchronizing their efforts at key milestones to assess progress and readiness for mass production. The original motivations for synchronization are being challenged by new technologies and processes like additive manufacturing and agile development. New tools and analytics can help across the product lifecycle. This presentation will focus on how siloed development must evolve to meet today’s product lifecycle challenges.

 

 

 

Electronic component obsolescence is a critical issue with smart connected products, especially those with long lifespans. Digital twins are the best approach to effectively address this business problem. This presentation will describe the issues faced by industrial companies and how a properly implemented digital twin that connects data across different BOMs can reduce the impact of component obsolescence.

 

 

 

One of the promises of smart connected products is being able to capture product performance data using the IoT and to leverage this data to improve the product and other associated lifecycle processes. But how is this done exactly? The answer is different for each solution provider. This session will focus on how people are addressing this issue.
