Abstract
Today’s DOD mechanics operate in a data-centric environment where digital data is increasingly used to field, maintain, and upgrade weapons systems more rapidly and economically over the systems’ lifecycle. This digital thread appears throughout the product life cycle and is founded on 3D product definition shared across the enterprise, enabling rapid, seamless, and affordable deployment of products from concept to disposal. It represents a fundamental shift to 3D from 2D. However, obtaining the technical data package (TDP) and using that 3D data is often a challenge as well as converting 2D data to 3D data. New technologies are now available that allow maintainers the opportunity to take advantage of 3D technical data in new ways. One of those is additive manufacturing which uses 3D technical data to build items such as prototypes, tools, and repair parts while dramatically reducing time and costs. Another is the development of simulations and animation. Data repositories such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) and material resource planning (MRP) help manage the process definition, while e-sourcing tools help extend ERP and MRP across the supply chain. This forum will identify challenges, research, implementation issues, and lessons learned involving using the digital for all activities in the product’s lifecycle.
