This course addresses the critical challenges organizations face in managing information accurately across the enterprise and throughout the product or solution lifecycle. Maintaining the Digital Thread from the baseline to the planning bill, order bill, and the as-built record while tracking requirements and their revision levels at any point in time, is a major hurdle. The inability to manage these elements leads to costly intervention resources and hampers the tracking of fielded configurations, resulting in significant warranty, recall, and concession costs. The constant changes impacting the Digital Thread and the Digital Twin add complexity to the process. This course explores how an organization's ability to identify, structure, link, and assign ownership to requirements and internal processes directly affects its success in achieving business objectives. It highlights how quality and schedule problems, if unmanaged, lead to costly corrective actions and inefficient operations. Participants will learn how to align current processes with best practices and foster the necessary cultural changes to improve performance. The course extends these concepts beyond design information to encompass all enterprise requirements and deliverables throughout the lifecycle, ensuring clarity, accuracy, and validity at all times.
