Timberland implemented Open Text's digital asset management system to centralize their collection of digital assets and media. This solved problems of assets being misplaced, duplicated efforts across regions, and not knowing global usage rights. The system provides a secure central repository, user permissions, and searchable access to assets. It has improved productivity, collaboration, and eliminated costs associated with physically distributing media.

Digital Twin refers to a physical and functional description of a component, product or system together with all available operational data. This includes all information which could be useful in current and subsequent lifecycle phases. Benefit of it for mechatronic and cyber-physical systems is to provide the information created during design and engineering also at the operation of the system. The comprehensive networking of all information, shared between partners and connecting design, production and usage, forms the presented paradigm of next generation Digital Twin.
