Additionally, implementing digital twins for asset management typically provides quantifiable benefits for maintaining equipment in the field.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As one example, manufacturers may use digital twin technologies for industrial asset lifecycle management and maintenance. By providing a dynamic digital representation of the industrial asset, enterprises can predict machine performance. Among the various types of intelligence that can be leveraged from a digital twin are product simulations, prototyping, as-designed BOM, as-ordered BOM, as-built BOM, as-shipped, as-currently configured in the field and finished goods in the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">QAD supports <\/span><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qad.com\/blog\/2020\/07\/maintaining-industrial-assets-with-a-digital-twin\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">digital twin technology<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in two ways.
