May 2018 Sustainable PLM Overcoming Obsolescence2

An association of aerospace OEMs and aircraft engine providersrelated to PLM.

The Aerospace & Defense PLM Action Group


Set the direction for the aerospace &

defense industry on PLM-related topics

Promote common industry PLM processes and

practices

Define requirements for common interest

PLM-related capabilities

Communicate with a unified voice to

PLM solution providers

Sponsor collaborative PLM

research on prioritized industry

and technology topics

A PLM Advocacy Group aiming to :

Obsolescence Management is a top concern for the group

Today’s Agenda


Introduction

Challenges

Objectives

Desired State

Requirements

Compliance

Context: Scale and Complexity of A&D Programs


Product Development between 5 to 10 years

Product Support can span 30 to 100 years

Thousands of data creators

Tens of thousands of data consumers

Hundreds of software applications from many solution providers used to create and maintain the data

Hundreds of suppliers

Across a global footprint

All this needs to be sustained over decades!

Context: Scale and Complexity of Product Data


Product, manufacturing & service documentation

Millions of lines of software code

Regulatory certification data

Complex relationships between data elements

Multiple views of configuration

As-Specified / As-DesignedAs-Planned / As-ManufacturedAs-Delivered / As-Maintained

Hundreds of thousands of unique physical components

Over a million component instances

Change management data

All this needs to be sustained over decades!

Data Retention Through Program LifeChallenge 1


Issue

• Data lifespan between 30 and 50 years

• Large volume of data implies high cost of upgrade

Consequences

• Difficulties to leverage IT technology improvements

• Risk of out-dated processes & user interfaces

• Difficulties to leverage legacy data

PLM Platform Generational ChangesChallenge 2


Issue

• Supplier platform generation changes

• Supplier goes out of business (rare!)

Consequences

• New projects for customization, interfaces and data migration

• Business training, learning curve, lower productivity

• Loss of data assets • Increase of investment on legacy

solutions, increasing cost of upgrade

ObjectivesA&D PLM Action Group Obsolescence Project


Reach strong shared targetsAgree on top-level requirements

Minimize the obsolescence related cost for PLM over the Aircraft

lifecycle

Enable continued use of knowledge and data from our programs

Enable the Digital Thread along product lifecycle phases

An industry standards based PLM architecture

Obsolescence resilient solutions enabling a global collaboration in a

multi-vendor environment

Describe a high level architectural pattern for PLM in A&D

Desired StateSystem of Systems Architectural Pattern


Our chosen architecture:
