ABSTRACT
The complexity of capturing, managing and fu-
ture-proofing product data where requirements for
supporting data may outlast the software environ-
ment that produced product data. In this study, we
compare the research data lifecycle to the product
lifecycle and emerging standards and practices
from academic and research library community to
industry. We seek to identify practices, tools, poli-
cies, standards, and approaches from Product
Lifecycle Management (PLM) in industry that
would benefit digital curation in archives and
libraries, and visa-versa. An ancillary goal of the
study is to test Data Curation profile (DCP) ap-
proach to determine data needs for product data in
industry. An interview, which is structured based
on DCP, will be conducted in industry companies
to explore the archiving and retrieval practic-
es/challenges and how product information (data
files, metadata, documentation, provenance, etc.)
need to be bounded for archiving. This poster
presents 1) an overview of the product lifecycle;
2) how data flows into and out of an archive in the
LOTAR model; 3) the organization of the
EN/NAS 9300 standard and LOTAR Working
Group outputs; 4) PLM processes implemented in
PTC Windchill and 5) Siemens Teamcenter; and
6) how the study’s interview protocol maps to the
Data Curation Profile. The ultimate goal is to
identify and scope gaps in product data curation
by mapping industrial standards, practices, and
tools from profiles to library and archival, and
report to PLM Center and dissemination at rele-
vant conferences.
