3. SIP objectives and results
With SIP, let’s create and use the
PLM open standards of the future
for digital collaboration!
Project SIP@SystemX
1- A methodology with an associated
testing platform
2- Creation of a community of interest
with a shared knowledge base
3- Validation on business cases relying on
experimentation within an open
environment
1- Apply on a real business case
Very positive feedback from Dassault Aviation
2- A simulation and test environment factory for the next
phase, many scientific publications
3- Open community creation
1- Application to other process, disciplines and standards
2- Usage for definition of recommended practices by
implementor forum
3- Next of the PLM interoperability research roadmap: SIP2

• Collaboration N to N between organizations,
application and software/hardware systems
• Open standards + open source
• Experimentation and knowledge sharing for
end to end collaboration

5. Product Lifecycle Management
 A strategic business approach that applies a consistent set of business solutions that
support the collaborative creation, management, dissemination, and use of product
definition information
• Supporting the extended enterprise (customers, design and supply partners, etc.)
• Spanning from concept to end of life of a product or plant
• Integrating people, processes, business systems, and information

6. System Engineering
 Systems Engineering is an engineering discipline whose responsibility is creating and
executing an interdisciplinary process to ensure that the customer and stakeholder's needs
are satisfied in a high quality, trustworthy, cost efficient and schedule compliant manner
throughout a system's entire life cycle. This process is usually comprised of the following
seven tasks: State the problem, Investigate alternatives, Model the system, Integrate,
Launch the system, Assess performance, and Re-evaluate. These functions can be
summarized with the acronym SIMILAR: State, Investigate, Model, Integrate, Launch, Assess
and Re-evaluate.
Définition de l’INCOSE
About Interdisciplinary
Process related to System of
interest and supporting
systems (ISO15288)
PROCESS CENTRIC
Open standards: ISO 15299, 15289, 24748, 15504SysML, UML2, UPDM, AP233, etc.

8. SIP - Dynamic Manufacturing Network = system of systems
PLM standards used for interoperability are network protocols

9. Dynamic Manufacturing Network = system of systems

PLM standards used for interoperability are network protocols

10. Challenge of SIP project
Defining a consistent set of standards for covering PLM interoperability needs
Assessing the standards, their implementation and their usage
 To define a community
 For developing the know how
 For involvement at national level on international standards
 In order supporting and developing the network of French international experts
 For sharing of resources
 Technological challenges
 Test oriented and Model Based Methodology with for PL M standards
development driven by enterprise (motivation, drivers, value creation)
 Mastering implementation of standards
 Managing the complexity of emerging digital eBusiness ecosystem related to PLM.

11. SIP methodology
 During the standardization project
 Modeling the standard and its usage using Collaborative Modeling Environment based on UML2/SysML
 SIP capture and assessment of current practices and standards under development
• AP242ed1, AP242ed2, - PLCS DEXLIB ,PLCSLIB and AP239ed3, MOSSEC
 Collaborative Modeling Environment for Standard and associated process modeling in closed connection to
the DMN software factory for test bed component generation, assembly, deployment and monitoring
 During Implementation Forum and Benchmark
 Definition of Generic Business Scenario, test cases and test data for PDM Implementor forum and AP242
Benchmark (AFNET, PROSTEP) for AP242ed1
 SIP capture and assessment of current practices for testing implementation of the standard by vendors
 Testbed environment and associated blueprint and workflow models for supporting inclusion of
automated tasks where it will bring the more added value
 During deployment within Enterprise
 Capture of the current practices (Airbus Group, Automotive, Energy) and needs
 Enrichment of Generic Business Scenarios with collaboration context specific rules, test cases
and test data
 Reuse and enrichment of a shared knowledge base
 Early involvement in implementation forum, for defining networked collaboration with different
stakeholders and delivering specifications to the vendors that can be more easily validated and
tested
 Demonstration on assessment of usage of AP242BO XML with DA Datapack
Assessment and test of a PLM standards all along the life cycle an ISO standard

20. Conclusion
 Results
 Scientific publications
 Short term exploitations
 Impacts
 Perspectives
 Not restricted to Aeronautic as multi-domain required for
connected systems of tomorrow
 PLM or SE? No, more PLM + SE + Manufacturing+
Support/Operation + Recycling
 Digital transition
• To prepare the path to the future
• Integrate all the problems and issues still not addressed today
• Continuous interoperability within a dynamic environment with a growing role of internet
and digitalization
• Impact of « makers » and 3D printing on PLM and SE – Digital twins support
• Trade off between short term results that can be exploited fast and a longer time vision to
be implemented for a community of interest
