In this episode of Stay Sharp, Jonathan and Juliann continue their deep dive into the world of digital twins—this time focusing on the hardware component and how Product Data Management (PDM) systems provide the backbone for version control, configuration management, and more.
Together, they unpack:

• How PDM supports managing fast-changing hardware designs
• The difference between MCAD and ECAD data—and how to wrangle both
• Why bills of material (BoMs) matter in a multi-domain twin environment
• The importance of configuration management for syncing versions
• How feedback from simulation, lab testing, or physical product usage plays into the twin
• Why knowing the purpose of your digital twin determines what data you really need

Whether you’re just exploring the concept of digital twins or are neck-deep in implementation, this episode offers practical insight into the structure and systems that help make hardware data twin-ready.
