What is the Digital Thread?
The digital thread refers to a framework that integrates people, processes and tools throughout an organization and produces a holistic view of a product’s data across its entire lifecycle.
The digital thread links discrete functions and streams of data, from initial design through manufacturing, deployment, and operation, to the eventual end-of-life and recycling stages. It encompasses all the digital and physical touchpoints of a product, creating a continuous thread of information. This integrated approach ensures that data is accessible and usable by all stakeholders, facilitating a seamless exchange of information and thus improves operational efficiency and performance and accelerates all processes and functions in an organization.
The digital thread is not just a technological asset but a strategic enabler that can transform operations, customer experiences, and the very way organizations do business.
