Objectives From Drawings to Digital Thread: Unlocking the Power of Model-Based Product Development

• In today’s fast-paced, highly competitive manufacturing landscape, traditional design processes built around disconnected tools and 2D drawings are no longer enough.
• This session explores how forward-thinking organizations are transforming their product development strategies by adopting Model-Based Product Development
• (MBPD), Model-Based Definition/Design 
• (MBD), and the Model-Based Enterprise (MBE).

We’ll walk through the shift from fragmented, multi-system workflows to a unified, model-centric approach where a single 3D digital model becomes the “source of truth” across engineering, manufacturing, and the broader enterprise.

 Attendees will learn how this transformation enables seamless collaboration, reduces costly errors and rework, and dramatically accelerates time-to-market.

Whether you're just beginning your model-based journey or looking to scale it enterprise-wide, this presentation will provide clear insights, practical strategies, and compelling business value to help you move forward with confidence.

Creo Best Practices

Flexible Components in Creo give engineering teams a cleaner way to manage variability inside assemblies.

Instead of creating multiple part files for springs, hoses, O-rings, or other adaptable components, you can build a single intelligent

model that responds to real assembly conditions. As a result, models stay organized and PLM data stays easier to manage.
