Decoding the Digital Twin Capabilities Periodic Table
Digital Twins, heralded as the cornerstone of Industry 4.0, promise a transformative business approach by facilitating holistic understanding, optimal decision-making, and practical action across sectors. However, navigating this sophisticated technology and tapping into its full potential can be daunting, especially for executives beginning their Digital Twin journey.
To address these challenges, the Digital Twin Capabilities Periodic Table (CPT), a technology-agnostic framework, is taking center stage. This tool focuses on use case capability requirements rather than just technology features, thus enabling organizations to define, develop, and deploy digital twins to meet their specific operational needs.
Decoding the Digital Twin Capabilities Periodic Table
The CPT organizes capabilities based on shared characteristics, facilitating collaboration and ensuring focus on individual use case capability requirements. It consists of six categories:
These categories house 60 high-level capabilities vital for designing and operating digital twins, addressing specific business requirements. However, the true strength of the CPT lies in its agnostic nature. As Velosa suggests, by 2025, many digital twins will have integrated workflows to automate business responses.
The Case for a Process Digital Twin
While Digital Twins are often associated with physical assets, they extend into operational processes. A process digital twin replicates a company's operational process, offering real-time and predictive insights to boost performance, efficiency, and effectiveness.
Here's how the Digital Twin Capabilities Periodic Table could be adapted for a process digital twin:
Data Services: For a process digital twin, data access, management, and processing across a range of real-time operational data to historical performance metrics are critical.
