PTC Arbortext Differentiator: Digital Thread
What is the Digital Thread?
Digital threads seek to create homogeneity and simple universal access to data. They follow a single set of related data as it weaves in and out of business processes and functions to create a continuity and accessibility.
With Arbortext you can create a single flow of data and resources that will enable the linking of content all the way out to someone in the field. For example, starting from the source in engineering CAD data or bill of materials (BOM), as that information flows through the business process, it will be available to those creating technical information or service content. Arbortext will link the sources and have a managed approach for delivering that information out to people in the field or those in their home office.
Ensure end-to-end data consistent with digital thread
Unleash a seamless flow of data across the value chain that will link every phase of the product life cycle.

Explicit and Implicit Linking of Service Content to Product Design
As products become more complex than ever, it’s imperative to simplify providing your service teams with accurate, up-to-date information that doesn’t hinder their efficiency and effectiveness in the field. Learn how the digital thread can improve the connection from design to service content, regardless of if your organization uses explicit or implicit linking.
