Benefits of Using a Digital Thread
- Build the digital thread for secure traceability of end-to-end processes, and product life cycles without limiting it to engineering and manufacturing.
- Use Digital Threads as a tool for improving efficient decision making, cost reduction, quality assurance, delivery, production and compliance.
- Use Digital Threads to provide traceability and discover impact of multiple business scenarios that cut across teams within an enterprise. Eg: On-time delivery, supplier pricing, margin impact, waste, etc.
- Adopt Digital Threads to identify gaps between company objectives, current state and all the impact points in the enterprise.
The majority of digital thread discussions focus on the digitization of a physical object through its design, manufacturing, and operational life cycle. These threads are typically described as being digital enablers, aiding with such things as enhanced product design, improved product quality and increased a product lifespan. What about non-physical assets - such as the processes that make an organization unique and give it a competitive advantage? Why can’t these be “threaded”?
Our mission at Kobai is to enable organizations to harness the power of connected digital threads to unlock data, providing for faster and improved decision-making across the enterprise. We want to empower organizations to create and visualize digital threads, for both physical and non-physical assets, gaining valuable insights not only into their products, but also into the processes and key objectives on which their business relies for its day-to-day decisions.
