With all the hype surrounding digital twin, one might expect to see a higher rate of adoption by industry. The reality, however, is that companies are just now beginning to cautiously explore its full potential. As companies turn to laser scanning or 3D modelling to digitize their assets, they quickly realize just having a digital model is not enough. To truly unlock the value of a digital twin—driving efficiencies in maintenance and reliability—requires data and integration of the digital model with business systems. Further to this, while companies are starting to recognize the need to invest, executives remain skeptical of the economic return and feasibility of implementing an enterprise digital twin solution. In this workshop, we will take a holistic approach to exploring how people, processes, enabling technology, and data are combined to make digital twin a reality. We will address and invite discussion of the following key questions: What is a digital twin? Is a laser scan or 3D model a digital twin? How do we create and maintain a digital twin? Trusted, real-time 1D, 2D, and 3D engineering data, integrated with maintenance and operations data, is at the core of every successful digital twin implementation, so how do we address gaps and inconsistencies in our brownfield data? What are the real-life applications of digital twin in inspections, maintenance, reliability, and operations? What financial and non-financial benefits should we anticipate? This is all great…but where do we start? What are some tangible actions you and your company can do now? ReVisionz will conduct and moderate a discussion with the aim of sharing best practices so we can learn from one another and improve our understanding of the digital twin, its applications, and its advantages.
