"Engineering to Possible" is a Systems Thinking context that holds significant importance for manufacturers. It includes taking proactive measures to manage and mitigate potential disruptions in the supply chain that could impact critical sub-subsystems, manufacturing processes, and distribution. Failing to address these potential disruptions forces organizations into a reactive mode, often lacking insight into the core functionality of key products. This reactive approach leads to unpredictable costs, potential quality issues, and inadequate compliance with regulatory standards.

Aras Variant Management application helps manage your product platforms and variants on a single, connected Aras PLM platform. Using functionally rich, intuitive user interfaces, teams in your organization can define and validate product variability rules and apply them to various product structures. Product platforms are managed using breakdown structures with the applicable variability. The application generates valid product variants based on a common underlying platform structure.
A PLM system doesn't guarantee you are ready for any challenges affecting your company or your products. Since no one knows what the future will bring, it is impossible to build a PLM system, or any system for that matter, that will solve any future requirement that may come. You need a flexible, scalable platform that can quickly design, build, prototype, and launch new applications and features.
One example for the medical device industry was the introduction requirements for Unique Device Identification. When this requirement was introduced, no systems were ready for it, and no systems were designed to manage this requirement, which led to a lot of manual work, inefficiency, and loss of traceability.
Because of the flexibility of the Aras Innovator platform, we could quickly respond to this. Within two weeks, we had a fully functional solution that could help our customers manage this new requirement without investing in a new tool, adding mountains of manual work, and adding to the system landscape's complexity.

Consumers choose products with ever-increasing features in today's highly competitive commercial landscape. To succeed in this landscape, companies are investing in efficient product development strategies as a key differentiator in determining their success. Adopting a modular product development approach where many product variants are derived from a common platform has become a best practice. However, this approach requires the ability to match the innumerable customer requirements and all the combinations of product options conceived in the development phase. Most of the Variant Management tools available in the market cannot handle this challenge, addressing variability only on the already developed product as it is presented to consumers.
The new Variant Management application in the Aras Innovator platform is designed to cover not only the customer-facing product variants but also the development process of these variants, including the mapping to product requirements and other product representations. It leverages the power of Aras Innovator, including its flexibility and connectivity, to provide a solution that applies to the complete Digital Thread. This allows companies to manage product variants from the start of their development process, addressing complexity in an efficient manner, and reducing the overall product development cycle, thus delivering value to their customers faster.
In this webinar, Rodrigo Britto Maria, Aras presales engineer for EMEA, will demonstrate how the Aras Variant Management application can be used in a product development scenario, highlighting the connection with product requirements and discussing the key differentiators that can help you manage the variability of your products across their development lifecycles.

And why they went with a SaaS solution rather than on-premise? We will review how they resolved other business challenges as a multi-side and constantly growing organization with a SaaS product lifecycle management system (PLM).
Software is playing an increasingly important role in the development of future products. While mechanical, electrical, and electronic elements are often interconnected, software/ firmware is only sometimes effectively integrated into traditional product data management systems.
In recent webinars, we have demonstrated the benefits of adopting a model-based systems engineering and product lifecycle management approach, which allows for the automatic maintenance of a bill of materials and streamlined change processes across disciplines.
In this webinar, we will show how software/firmware can also be managed in an integrated approach using ALM/PLM best-in-class integration. This will provide a comprehensive view of the integrated development process and ensure that all disciplines work together seamlessly.
Recently, the market handed us amazing examples of what happens when companies fail to keep up with the technologies that are strategic to their competitiveness. Delaying technology upgrades has had an enormous impact on Southwest’s business. Legacy technology systems could also have contributed to Ford’s Mustang Mach-E production errors, where CEO Jim Farley disclosed they have “a mile of wires it didn’t need.”
Both companies are struggling to meet the demands of today's market due to their use of outdated legacy systems. How can modern enterprise systems help companies overcome these challenges and prepare for the future?
Join us for an exclusive webinar where Aras experts will provide commentary and dive deep into the consequences of using outdated systems, explore the risks and benefits of modernizing technology, and how companies can break free from their legacy systems to become more agile, efficient, and competitive.
Nidec Corporation, a leading global comprehensive motor manufacturer, chose Aras Innovator to centralize data from various sources due to their acquisition of multiple companies. Hear how they successfully centralized their data using Aras from Kamran Aftab, PLM management leader at Nidec.
Medical device manufacturers must reduce the risk of potential hazards and harm when users operate their devices. Device failures from intended and unintended use must be identified, understood, and controlled. Managing risks in siloed document-driven processes makes it difficult for medical device manufacturers to connect all risk-related data and understand the impact of product changes coming from design and R&D. Manufacturers need a system that brings quality, risk, and product data together in one place.
"If you digitize a bad process, you will get a bad digital process."
With 20+ years of PLM implementation experience, we have learned a few lessons on what makes or breaks a PLM project. First, if you do not know your digitization strategy, you will get lost at some point trying to reach an unknown goal. And secondly, if the entire organization and external partners is not involved in the PLM implementation, there is a high probability that it will fail. No matter how much money you spend.
In this webinar, we will show you concrete examples of what to consider, and how to prepare and set up a PLM project that is not doomed to fail, making sure that you reap maximum benefit from your PLM solution.

David Breneur, chef de projet PLM chez Haulotte, explique comment la plateforme PLM Aras Innovator permet de créer une véritable continuité numérique, garantissant la traçabilité et la collaboration au sein de toute l'entreprise.
Everything in design starts - and ends - with requirements. They are a critical part of a digital thread and provide the context of what the product does. Add the ever-exploding product complexities and the challenges keep growing. Separate, stand-alone tools for managing requirements make traceability of requirements difficult. This is why managing requirements in a PLM platform is critical to improving interdisciplinary collaboration and verification. Hear the benefits of integrating requirements management across the entire product lifecycle with the digital thread.
Most companies today struggle to manage all of the data that is generated during product development. Much of this data is contained in silos around the enterprise with little access for the business. One solution to this challenge is the ability to create interactive dashboards that display PLM data. Learn more about this illuminating ability from Aras that will be rolling out in phases this year.
Toyota Motor Europe relied on the manual exchange of complex spreadsheets to share data, an unsustainable process due to the number of architectural variants and related simulations. These spreadsheets were devoid of any connection to the rest of the product data and were not managed under configuration control. The pedigree, maturity, and connectivity of the data were often unclear. Management of the engineering division recognized that the existing process was not sustainable without a new data management platform. The original spreadsheets are now replaced by the “single source of truth,” the digital thread in the Aras platform that covers the engineering data for vehicle dynamics performance. The variant-design-simulation relationships are managed within this system-centric digital thread regardless of where the system and design details are authored.
Excel-based management makes finding the most current data very difficult, with users making copies, changing data, or saving new versions of documents. When Tamturbo went through a period of rapid growth, which resulted in more complex products and data to manage, they quickly realized the importance of systematic data management.
Tamturbo produces oil-free, touch-free, and care-free turbocompressors for several industries and provides 24/7 remote monitoring of their equipment. It is critical for all departments – from sales and service to designers and developers – to have easy access to accurate product data.
In this webinar, Tamturbo’s Ollipekka Jaatinen and Fulvisol’s Petri Surakka will discuss how Tamturbo achieved a clear, traceable view of the entire lifecycle of its compressors by federating all data into one system available across their entire value chain.

Rising energy costs, a high inflation rate, and an acute shortage of skilled workers are putting tremendous pressure on European industrial companies. Winners and losers are made in times of crisis and individual companies can control how well they are positioned during times of uncertainty.
To assess how prepared Europe’s industry is, Aras surveyed over 400 decision-makers from 19 European countries; nine out of ten survey participants are convinced that sustainability and economic success are no longer a contradiction in terms. For them, getting ahead with ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) is a critical factor for building the resilient businesses of the future.
During this webinar Frederic Weiller and Matthias Fohrer will share with you how your company can both comply with legal requirements and capture the economic potential of sustainable business practices.
When access to CAD data is limited to CAD designers, the only users who can realize the value of visualization, collaboration, and coordinated change based on highly intuitive, graphical representations of the product are the users who created those representations in the first place. In this white paper, we look at the current CAD and PDM landscapes and outline the impact of an unconnected CAD environment. Then we examine the benefits of integrating CAD data into a PLM system and the importance of a digital thread that connects that data with departments, the extended enterprise, and the supply chain.
In October 2022, we showed the technology enabling the data exchange between ALM and PLM. This time, together with PROSTEP and their OpenPDM Integration Platform, we will explain the business case for the collaboration between ALM and PLM. We’ll answer the question “why should you care” about the marriage between ALM and PLM.
In 2022, businesses responded to enormous challenges and ongoing change. This won’t slow down in 2023, but now the name of the game is surviving economic downturns, elevated energy costs, and supply chain disruptions, all while making the right investments in products. And while keeping in mind that many of the world’s greatest companies started during economic downturns, which often present the best opportunities for growing a business while others are retreating.
In this webinar, Rob McAveney, Chief Technology Officer and Jason Kasper, Director of Product Marketing, Aras, explore trends and opportunities to invest in supporting your business challenges today while creating the flexibility to adapt to future business conditions and meet the challenges of tomorrow.
Aras Innovator was adopted by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. as the development platform for electronic control systems. Aras Innovator contributed to Nissan’s success in streamlining configuration management, which became complicated by the expansion of electronic control functions of cars.

We are transforming from focusing on products to increasingly interdisciplinary and networked systems. These systems are built using a combination of mechanical design, E/E development, and software engineering. The increasing interdependencies between engineering artifacts require new methods to manage engineering change. Against this background, the potential of integrating Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and Product Lifecycle Management will be highlighted in this webinar.
The heterogeneous data from various development tools require new approaches to engineering change management. With the help of MBSE models, the impact of a change can be analyzed across development disciplines. At the same time, a PLM backbone can manage formal changes via workflows that cross IT system boundaries. The interaction of the systems and a connection via EAN-CAD/Software-Integrated Development Environment (SW-IDE) will be highlighted in the webinar.
Aras Product Manager Leigh Young, Rik Rasor of Fraunhofer Institute for Mechatronic Systems Design (IEM) and Robert Huxel, director of Business Development & Marketing, XPLM, show the benefits of interdisciplinary change management. They will share best practices based on Fraunhofer IEM’s 10 years of experience.
Aras Variant Management allows you to define and manage complex configurations of product variants across engineering disciplines and organizational boundaries.

Today, spreadsheets still play a significant part in everyday work life in engineering and manufacturing organizations across the globe. But as the demand for instant access to product data is increasing, so is the need for interconnected product data management tools and integration between enterprise systems. Enter Aras PLM, a data management platform that connects information from multiple sources and enables on-demand access to all product data.
Most companies that aim to deliver profitable products and solutions are now also challenged to support a sustainable future for our planet. Global regulations will play a significant role. For example, ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) reporting toward Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions will help companies, investors and consumers where to put their money.
For products and solutions, the environmental impact is mostly defined during the concept phase, where business and design decisions create the major constraints. New business models, like Products as a Service, combined with Modular/Repairable/Upgradeable products are likely the to-be models for a sustainable future.
To run these new business models competitively and efficiently, a company must implement a data-driven PLM infrastructure. This webinar will show how the Aras’ PLM-infrastructure can help businesses in their journey. Aras Innovator offers the platform, OOTB (Out-Of-The-Box) applications, connectivity, and flexibility to support data-driven processes and the transformation to new business models. We will demonstrate the product data traceability from cradle-to-cradle within and beyond the Aras platform.

Creating a resilient enterprise ecosystem requires a massive amount of change by creating new ways of thinking, connecting, and collaborating — all of which need access to a precious and often misunderstood resource — product data. This data needs to be made available to all who need it, while keeping it secure as it moves throughout the enterprise. Watch this video to learn the obstacles, solutions, and value in creating resilience in your organization.
Check out our webinar, "Move from Digital Trauma to Digital Nirvana" today.
A special case of risk management is in the development and marketing of medical devices. Designing, ensuring, and certifying that they are safe for human interaction be it for daily patient care, invasive or non-invasive, diagnostic procedures, or scientific research. The risks may extend to other patients, operators, external equipment or the environment on a micro or macro scale.
The challenges, however, are that risks can present themselves at any point in the lifecycle of the product. Capturing and assessing all risks is both difficult, time-consuming, and error-prone because many medical device manufacturers today are dependent on traditional paper-based risk management processes.
Increase your risk management effectiveness. Learn more in this whitepaper about how to improve your risk processes with automation and change control.
Product Lifecycle Management is essential for all manufacturers that face the demand of rapid creation of designs and many product variants. The need to instantly access information across multiple stakeholders upstream and downstream of product design, has made the move from PDM to PLM imperative. Aras Innovator provides a natural, easy migration path to PLM from legacy PDM tools. With its flexible, scalable, low-code platform, Aras Innovator easily adapts to your organization's existing processes without the need for costly software customization. In this webinar, you will learn how to power up your PDM to Aras PLM as you take the first step towards Digital Transformation.
Systems Thinking is essential to managing exploding product complexities. Companies are investing in Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies and tools. Unfortunately, traditional product lifecycle management (PLM) software was built to manage the BOM (Bill of Materials), while MBSE’s focus is on the design intent prior to defining the BOM. This creates a gap in any digital thread. This paper discusses three examples of the successful integration of MBSE with a PLM platform resulting in a complete tool-agnostic digital thread.
Creating a resilient enterprise ecosystem requires a massive amount of change by creating new ways of thinking, connecting, and collaborating — all of which need access to a precious and often misunderstood resource — product data. This data needs to be made available to all who need it, while keeping it secure as it moves throughout the enterprise. Read this eBook to explore the obstacles, value, and solutions for creating resilience in your organization.
The increasing complexities of today’s products can derail market opportunities, increase costs, and challenge resources. Managing that complexity increases the need to coordinate and optimize across multiple systems, disciplines, and domain silos within the OEM and across its distributed network of partners and suppliers.
Systems Thinking is an essential part of digital transformation since both focus on how organizations transform the way people think and use data models, tools, and processes to manage the opportunities and challenges of product complexity.
How do you create an enterprise ecosystem to ensure efficient and effective use of product data? Most organizations think it is simply about connecting siloed data. The reality is a successful digital transformation requires new processes and the flexibility to disrupt standard operating procedures and let go of comfortable, yet outdated tools. Read this executive summary to discover new ways of thinking, collaborating, and connecting with a digital transformation platform.
Accelerate your new product introduction with the innovation twins ALM and PLM. Many products are becoming smarter and more complex, increasing the number of lines of code and dependencies between hardware components, sub-systems, and the system in its entirety. People across different disciplines must work together to make systems work together in a reliable way. The different engineering disciplines involved typically work in specialized tools: software engineers work in Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) systems, electrical engineers in data management tools, and mechanical engineers manage data in their PLM system. Knowledge sharing and data exchange between these systems is often poor and results in substantial manual overhead.
Together with PROSTEP and their OpenPDM Integration Platform, we will show the collaboration between ALM and PLM. The out of-the-box connectors of OpenPDM integrate product data for better, faster, and more efficient product development.
Exploding product complexity often result in overdesigns, functional failures, release delays, or costly leaner expansion of workforce. These are not new, but product complexities are making them that much more impactful. And that is one of the primary drivers beyond digital engineering initiatives: evolve people, data, and processes to effectively manage these complexities. But do you know how reach these goals? What are the key success enablers? The key to understanding that is in understanding the role that Systems Thinking has in mitigating functional product failures.
Are you using your data efficiently? How do you keep the little things from falling through the cracks? Aras Innovator® is a platform that can help you stay on top of your product data. In this video, we examine the daily routine of two CAD engineers. Both use an industry-standard PDM tool to manage their CAD design files and all other files that might be associated with this process. The main difference is that Jane’s company has integrated its CAD environment into Aras Innovator. In contrast, Bob’s company does not have a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution to share its CAD data with the rest of the organization and partners in the supply chain.
Racal Acoustics produces audio devices, in-ear headsets, field telephones, and handsets, all specifically tailored to military, paramilitary, and first-responder markets. Before, the company was hampered by inefficient processes where it could take 4-6 weeks to release a new product. Therefore, it was important for the product development team at Racal Acoustics to eliminate all ineffective procedures that increased the time to market for new products. The implementation of Aras Innovator with the industry-specific Aras for High-Tech Electronics solution quickly led to significant efficiency improvements in managing electronic drawings as well as in producing data packs.

Many industrial companies are still managing their product-related data in spreadsheets, which leads to a loss of visibility, traceability and the risk of incorrect information. This is because the volume of product data is constantly increasing. As a consequence, these companies find themselves struggling with data silos.
This was the case for the fast-growing Finnish compressor manufacturer Tamturbo. The company decided to switch to Aras Innovator to create "a central station for all of our product-related data. Now, we can’t imagine being without it”, explains CEO Igor Nagaev.
The example of the Finnish compressor manufacturer Tamturbo shows how to succeed with the transition from Excel to a professional PLM tool and what needs to be considered.

Your company has to become “greener” for several reasons. Your customers are requiring clean manufacturing and environmentally friendly products. Your shareholders are more willing to invest in companies that take care of the planet we live on. Legislators are increasing restrictions on polluting substances and are required by law to provide proactive and traceable compliance reporting.
Knowing your product’s CO2 footprint, its compliance to REACH, RoHS and the traceability of other regulatory requirements is no longer optional. You must now understand and manage recycling, disposal, and the end of life of your products to enable the new circular economy. Your product data, from structure and materials information to manufacturing and shipping practices, must be captured in a green-friendly PLM system that supports traceability through a cradle-to-grave digital thread. However, your PLM software cannot do it alone. It needs to connect to cloud resources that provide reliable information about the environmental impact of components and materials.
In this webinar, we are going to explore the idea of attaching the product structure to cloud sources like IHS, SiliconExpert and Ansys Granta MI™.
SaaS PLM solutions have been around for more than 20 years, and their architectures and capabilities have evolved significantly over that time.

With ever increasing product complexity, managing requirements is critical to any complex system and/or product design. However, in many cases, requirements management is still done by siloed, standalone requirements management tools. The fact is, many design failures can be traced back to poor requirements management. This brochure explores the current challenges and risks companies face when it comes to requirements management, and outlines the solutions and benefits offered by Aras' Requirements Engineering (RE) application.
Managing change can be challenging, particularly when convention requires a process to dynamically adapt to a design’s maturity level. As design maturity increases, changes become more impactful as a result of prior decisions on reuse, requirements flow down, and information already shared internally or with partners.
Dynamic Change Management automatically streamlines change requests, assessments, and orders in accordance with a design’s maturity. This ensures visibility into engineering status changes throughout the product lifecycle.

What does it mean to be in the cloud? Is that the same as SaaS? As companies consider their future cloud strategies, understanding the different approaches and advantages of each is critical to achieving an organization’s objectives. This is particularly true for PLM systems where special considerations must be considered to meet complex digital transformation objectives. Read “Aras Enterprise SaaS: The Cloud is Not Enough” to understand how the right SaaS model enhances the value of PLM.
Recent CIMdata research on cloud-SaaS PLM shows that two-thirds of survey respondents are considering a move to cloud-based PLM solutions. In their latest commentary “Aras Enterprise SaaS-Fully Configurable SaaS on the Cloud”, CIMdata provides their viewpoint on Aras Enterprise SaaS.

Authoring well-structured requirements is key to eliminating inconsistencies that can create confusion. Managing this process using simple text becomes a herculean task that only increases the risk of inconsistency. Today’s complex products necessitate an interactive and rules driven approach that automatically ensures compliance with a given requirement type.
Aras’ Requirements Engineering application does exactly that. It also automatically maintains traceability across the product lifecycle. And it does so by coexisting and connecting with other requirement authoring tools.
IWT has seen much growth in its product lines. Currently, the company manufactures 45 different models—60% of which are customized to some degree. Managing this wide product portfolio, with limited production quantities, and a high level of customization, meant that developing a controlled process for managing the release of engineering changes was imperative in order to achieve efficiency, reduce process time, and better coordinate production throughout the organization. With the high level of customization, combined with the requirement for strict compliance in heavily regulated industries, the need for a modern PLM platform became clear.
“Digital Transformation Driving PLM to the Cloud“ is an informative eBook discussing how innovative Digital Transformation strategies are forcing IT organizations to consider new cloud offerings for PLM systems.

Is PLM only for engineering and industrial enterprises? Does it necessarily have to be a physically tangible product to manage its lifecycle?
Even abstract products like financial offerings or non-CAD products like food and pharma products follow a similar lifecycle. Financial institutions or manufacturers need to eventually execute market research and gather requirements, think about product design to outsmart the competition, launch the product, take care of issues reported from market, and eventually think about end-of-life. Compliance and strict regulations require organizations to meticulously document.
Achieving all this, without losing efficiency across the enterprise, is a huge challenge. Moreover, the market dynamics make it necessary that the platform being used is flexible enough to stay updated for future scenarios - which aren't even thinkable yet.
How can a PLM platform help you get there? Learn more with a real case study!
When it comes to complex products such as aerospace and defense equipment, commercial aircraft and new, software-rich automobiles, it can be difficult to keep track of products’ configurations.

Read this eBook, to learn how to improve your service organization using digital twins.
CIMdata research shows companies continue to struggle to achieve success in their digital thread projects. Successful digital transformations need to address people, process, and technology. Learn how a the Aras PLM Platform's low-code approach and web services architecture enables agile development, easy silo connection, app development, and business process evolution, to properly support digital thread creation and maintenance.
Aircraft parts manufacturer JAMCO Corporation has been using Aras Innovator to manage design data since 2013. It started as a means of managing data for multiple CADs, then expanded to include technical documents and workflows, cost, and project management. It’s "digital thread” continues to grow and maintains the traceability of design data across the product lifecycle.
More freedom for your product data! – moving from a document-centric to data-centric process for the First Article Inspection (FAI) design verification activity.
Data hidden in documents has several disadvantages. Data is redundantly entered in different files which may lead to inconsistencies, corrective actions and additional data processing time and cost. It lacks connections to other data and therefore lacks traceability.
In this webinar we will show a real-life example of how we transformed a document-based First Article Inspection (FAI) process to an integrated, data-centric process for one of our customers. We will show the configured FAI solution on top of our Product Engineering application and how we achieved this through the Aras Innovator low code modeling engine.
With the discontinuation of their existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications, many companies are forced to migrate their installations to a new cloud-based platform. This change offers them the opportunity to rethink the interaction between ERP and product lifecycle management (PLM). To take advantage of this situation, they need a flexible PLM platform.
Companies transforming to Product as a Service business models, or actively supporting Field Service engagements with their customers, typically have issues on finding the right information related to the products they need to support. Success begins with the creation and sustainability of individual product configurations as they change over their lifecycle. The configuration of each asset being operated at a customer site, along with critical information that relates to that specific asset, is essential for the upkeep of these assets. Failure to maintain accurate configurations and information often results in extended downtime and service outages, because too much time is spent identifying the right people, parts, and service plans. As products’ features increase, so does the complexity of diagnosing the problem, providing a solution, and meeting customer expectations. An effective approach to the Digital Twin is key for future success in Product as a Service, and we want to show you how, with our latest release of Aras Digital Twin Core.
This webinar speaks to what needs to be taken into account to implement a successful and cost effective Digital Transformation, focusing on choosing the right PLM platform. Aras Low-code Platform is designed to support both a system-centric design intent and collaboration around BOM-centric design data. The platform’s modeling approach to data and processes guarantees compatibility with the future technologies and provides low-cost upgrades of all customizations.
Selection processes – why are they creating problems for customers?
This webinar speaks to the fact that companies get into trouble, simply because they have chosen the wrong system for their needs. This is a result of a broken selection process that has been designed – not to help the customer choose the right system for them – but to showcase a diligent process. And once the company finds out that they have chosen the wrong system, it is too late.
PLM selection processes today are often ineffective and should be redesigned. Not for our sake, but for the customers. Join Leon Lauritsen, Vice President Minerva Group, A/S, and Mark Reisig, Vice President of Product Marketing, Aras for an informative discussion.

With the complexity of today’s systems, CIOs cannot afford to be seen as just "keeping the lights on." Click the infographic below to learn how investing in a tool-agnostic digital thread can improve efficiency and add enterprise value.
Managing and communicating change is a core challenge for any company that makes products. It needs to be done in a clear, collaborative, and transparent manner, but, without a pervasive system of record, increasing complexity makes this process exponentially more difficult.
Throughout the manufacturing, supply chain, and service organizations, people need to understand the impact of change—what has changed, why it has changed, and make a determination that the product is still fit for service. In this demo we will show how Aras Innovator improves the change process to document the impacts of a proposed change reliably and clearly. We will also show how changes can be traced back from items in the field to reveal the decision-making process that led to those changes.
Digitalization of Engineering helps providers of next generation products to control accelerating product complexities. System-centric approach allows to see how sub-systems interact on a functional level which results in faster and less risky insertion of emerging technologies, quicker adoption of latest tools and effective system integration with sub-systems from supply chain.

Denise Fitzgerald from MIT Lincoln Laboratory and Michael Vinarcik from SAIC join Aras on stage at CAR MBS 2021. They shared their expertise on getting the most out of digital transformation investment, bridging engineering gaps, and avoiding pitfalls.
Engineers waste a lot of time repetitively re-discovering and re-analyzing issues that were already addressed before. And yet resolved system model instances don’t persist as managed configurations. Formal management of system variability is key to tracing of what was done and understanding how it can be reused.
The Aras low-code industrial platform enables engineers to formally manage system models authored in tools like Cameo without limiting their creative freedom but with an ability to rely on formal configuration management when appropriate.
A digital thread is a critical tool used by many CIOs to both digitalize their organizations and to support their own shift to becoming a transformational CIO. A digital thread is the capability that allows teams across the enterprise to follow a product’s digital history and all its related digital assets—from the initial planning and analysis, through design, manufacturing, testing, and on to final sustainment and disposal phases.
The ever-expanding complexities of systems being designed increases the demand for robust and intelligent simulation that is automated, consistent, repeatable, and traceable. While current simulation algorithms are growing ever more powerful, there is a need to make them ever more pervasive across more teams in cross-disciplinary ways. The goal is to enable more simulation, reduce simulation bottlenecks, enable digital verification, and react quicker to changes in product definitions.
Ever increasing product complexity forces organizations to reimagine their approach to design—including new methodologies, design tools, and configuration management for every step of the lifecycle. This also must include the pivotal role of a PLM platform plays in enabling the system-centric view of a product: traceability of requirements, management of systems models, simulation, and cross-discipline collaboration.
Prof. Dr.-Ing Martin Eigner (GF), CEO and Senior Consultant at EIGNER Engineering Consult, and Mark Reisig, VP Product Marketing at Aras, discuss the role a PLM platform plays in Digitalization of Engineering.

Having installed several different PLM systems over the years, Parata found themselves “stuck in the mud.” They were anxious not to repeat the current situation that they were in—saddled with an outdated system that was very costly to upgrade, fix bugs, and to align with their current business processes. Being a smaller company, they wanted the ability to configure the solution as their processes evolved and as they progressed in implementation and usage of the system.
Documents such as specifications, assembly instructions, parts lists, training materials, design reviews, and service bulletins all have one thing in common: your product. Managing them outside of PLM means their contents can easily fall behind changes made to the product, incurring significant time, effort, and risk of error when they must be manually updated and revised.
Aras Technical Documentation can structure the creation of many different kinds of product-related documents by connecting with data from all of the applications across the Aras Innovator platform. It automates data creation, pulling the latest product information into the customizable layout your teams need to work in—whatever type of document that is. And, it automates changes: as each linked piece of content is updated, stakeholders are notified and can accept the change or continue evolving the document. This quick and easy notification and synchronization accelerates their work and reduces the risk of inaccuracies.
