Towards a Digital Thread Between Industrial Internet of Things and Product Lifecycle Management: Experimental Work for Prototype Implementation

With the growing number of internet of things (IoT) and their miniaturisation, the technical possibilities associated with data collection are multiplied. In the future, it will be possible to install a sensor anywhere for a small cost. On the other hand, product lifecycle management (PLM) is a growing societal concern and products will need to be designed in such a way as to minimize their impact, while allowing businesses to have a viable business model. It will therefore be necessary to integrate data, coming from industrial internet of things (IIoT) into product lifecycle management, for companies to be able to offer product-as-a-service and pay-to-use. This paper aims to describe current advances on the integration of industrial internet of things in product lifecycle management. It also describes a prototype for a digital thread between IIoT and PLM allowing us to put forward open questions regarding the integration.
