PL1862I - Driving Engineering and Manufacturing Efficiencies Through Digital Thread

Imagine configuring and ordering a product of your choice online and in the next instant a machine builds your personalized product! Zero-touch manufacturing is the much sought-after goal for most discrete manufacturers. The practical challenges include product complexity, ambitious sustainability goals, dispersed global manufacturing facilities, and a plethora of configuration choices. To address these challenges the Infosys digital thread construct spans across sales configurators, pricing engines, CAx, PLM, and ERP systems, and ultimately delivers digital work instructions to the shopfloor via MES. This seamless thread ensures collaboration, an effective use of configuration lifecycle management processes, and breaks silos of information across multiple enterprise systems.
