Why PLATO e1ns is made for digital thread? What are the benefits?

Product development is a highly collaborative process that requires the contribution of multiple technical disciplines within engineering and across the supplier network. In industrial practice, more and more companies are confronted with the need to transform themselves from a pure parts or components manufacturer to a systems provider. 

At the same time, products - parts, components and systems - have shifted from purely mechanical design to system design that also includes an increasing amount electrical/electronical and software. 

We will show how e1ns can help to master this highly distributed process. Additionally, we give an outlook on how further additions may look like to even better ensure the success of the development from idea to product.

PLATO e1ns 8D report - become inspired of how to connect FMEA and 8D

Complaints, complaints, complaints … tired of it?

Complaints actually seen as a great opportunity to improve products and processes can help to rectify FMEA quality. It seems only natural to use FMEA as a control to prevent repetetive failures. PLATO e1ns is a solution for linking these methods - both team work focused. One step closer to digital thread.

PLATO e1ns and Integrations - No Magic but simply a Project

Integration often appears to be wishful thinking and stays on a vision level. Looking closer, its likely that an important detail is missing: the user story to describe and understand the work- and dataflow behind an integration. PLATO e1ns has various options to connect existing systems and the user story is basic. Sharing best practice with you will explain how a successful integration can be beneficial. One step closer to digital thread.
