DE25 Workshop One - Common Business Models
Active Conference Centre, Thornbury, Bristol, United Kingdom, BS35 3JBDigital Engineering requires significant changes in how products and systems are developed, produced, maintained, and decommissioned. While OEMs and their Tier-1 suppliers, in general, can keep up with these developments, companies further down the supply chain tend to be left behind. This tends to slow development processes down, impede service & maintenance, and make compliance unnecessarily difficult.
Through this workshop, the participants will develop:
Through this workshop, the participants will develop:
- An understanding of what Digital Engineering is
- An appreciation for the value and critical importance of digital engineering
- Insight that while Digital Engineering is critical, its implementation should be conducted in a phased and stepwise approach to a level that is required for a company’s performance within their industry
- Insight in the roles and responsibilities of the other participants in their ecosystem (e.g., customers, suppliers, partners, and legislative bodies)
An outline for this workshop is as follows:
- Digital Engineering Definitions & Goals—What digital engineering is, why companies implement digital engineering, the role of MOD/DOD, impacts on people and processes, the digital engineering platform, Digital Engineering support for business transformation and improvement, high-level business impacts.
- Digital Engineering Benefits—Where benefits accrue, cost, quality, collaboration—internal and external, value of cross industry digital engineering platforms and processes and product and process innovation.
- Best Practices for Implementing Digital Engineering to Support Business Needs—Planning, governance management support, and experiences from CIMdata customers.
- Critical Digital Engineering Success Factors—Cultural change & education, management support & ownership, governance, and the value of a roadmap.
- Strategy for Future—Digital engineering integration & expansion across the enterprise and industry, critical success factors, and how to best build a roadmap
DE25 Workshop Two - Digital Engineering in Action: Exploring Digital Twins, Digital Thinking and Strategic Approaches for System Development
Active Conference Centre, Thornbury, Bristol, United Kingdom, BS35 3JBDeveloping new systems requires a modern approach integrating digital twins, digital thinking, and digital thread to enhance efficiency, cost awareness, and adaptability in evolving markets. With the rapid advancement of technology, organisations must implement structured digital engineering practices to ensure seamless integration, improved performance, and future scalability. System development involves balancing technical requirements with time, resources, and cost constraints. Digital thinking enables organisations to explore advanced solutions, take calculated risks, and drive effective decision-making in a data-driven environment. To achieve this, a robust framework applying digital Twins, digital thinking, and digital thread is essential for streamlining processes, optimising system performance, and ensuring seamless collaboration across engineering, marketing, and operational teams. This approach enhances risk management, supports lifecycle efficiency, and facilitates continuous system improvements. By integrating digital twins, digital thinking, and strategic approaches, organisations can develop next-generation systems that are resilient, scalable, and aligned with the demands of the digital era.
Questions to ask:
Questions to ask:
- How can company leaders effectively drive system development providing successful error free products through new technologies?
- Firstly, a collaborative approach towards a shared vision of system development must be combined with recognition of known constraints.
- Secondly, a robust framework will ensure delivery of error-free products
Model Driven Engineering comprehensively encapsulates the creation of new technologies and the detailed development of systems.
- How can digital twins be utilised to maximise the efficiency of a company’s system development? In what ways can a digital thread enhance a company’s system development process?
- How is traditional Systems Engineering evolving into Model Driven Engineering?
- How can Model Driven Engineering support a Maths-to-Manufacturing process through the use of digital thread?
Aims and Objectives
This tutorial will focus on how digital twins are transforming engineering by leveraging virtual models of physical systems. Attendees will explore how digital twins enable real-time simulation, failure prediction, and performance optimisation, offering robust solutions for complex engineering challenges. This tutorial will further explore key topics, including strategies for implementing model-driven engineering and, emphasising its role in achieving successful system integration. The session will also highlight the critical benefits of these approaches, such as enhanced decision-making capabilities and cost savings, making them essential tools for modern engineering practices. This tutorial will be delivered as an interactive problem-solving workshop and welcomes attendees at different career stages within engineering: it is hoped that students, engineers and managers will all benefit from the session.
The tutorial will include the following:
- The tutor will share professional knowledge in this field drawing upon good practice over three decades involving research in consumer focused pre and post-product development as well as, automotive vehicles and defence products.
Tutorial participants will leave with an increased awareness of robust systems development processes. Through recognised systems engineering frameworks, this tutorial will also empower participants with technical knowledge to deliver successful error-free systems.
