General News

Summary

By gaining early access to initial mBoM structures, organizations can plan on the best facilities to manufacture that specific product and prioritize requirements at those locations right away. The Digital Thread within Windchill defines process plan operations with parts, workstations, tools, etc., which then automatically creates work instructions with visuals based on that design data. As with the previous departments, the Digital Thread in Supply Chain is about gaining visibility to the critical product data to help drive strategic decisions. The Digital Thread plays an integral role in giving the executive level the relative information they need to make strategic business decisions that will help drive their elevated goals. With linked access to quality reports, product reviews, manufacturing performance information, and sales numbers, leadership can quickly and accurately identify where changes need to be made and where the next business opportunity lies (such as Product-as-a-Service).
