Many of CIMdata’s industrial consulting clients have aspirations of improving profitability by capturing after-sales revenue including service and repair parts and upgrades. While a few companies are known for effective service and support operations, most companies only have a notion or aspiration about how to capture much of the potential opportunity, even when they have a functioning service organization.
To meet the vision of improved revenue from service operations a proper lifecycle configuration strategy that leads to configuration-controlled after-sales BOMs must be put into place. Key processes need to be introduced, the organization needs to be aligned with the vision and processes, and the technology used to manage product definition, especially the configurations of the service BOM (sBOM) and as-maintained BOM. Once these foundational architectural elements are in place, then a continuous improvement process that focuses on lifecycle optimization can be used to harvest short- and long-term benefits.
BOM configuration management over the product lifecycle is a foundational capability. The state-of-the-art solutions being implemented today include digital twin and digital thread support. Physical product instances are connected to the appropriate product structures including the as-designed, as-manufactured, and as-maintained configurations, as well as sBOM to create a digital twin that is enabled and maintained by the digital thread.
This presentation will identify common issues across the lifecycle that must be addressed in order to achieve configuration control of BOMs across the lifecycle and will also describe how a properly implemented PLM solution can address the issues and support the digital thread to enable a digital twin strategy thus, improving a company’s top and bottom line.
During the webinar you’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
