DTC is a membership-based trade association based in Boston, Massachusetts, US, and is part of Object Management Group (a Massachusetts-based technology standards consortium).

The group said the expansion into digital engineering will “cover the key domains and disciplines throughout the digital engineering ecosystem, including Model-Based System Engineering (MBSE), digital thread, and related strategies.”

“This expansion represents a natural evolution of our mission,” said Dan Isaacs, chief technology officer and general manager of DTC.

“By embracing a wider range of digital engineering practices, augmented where most beneficial by the infusion of [artificial intelligence], including Multi-Agent GEN AI, DTC is well positioned to enhance the digital engineering ecosystem further and address the complex challenges facing the industry today.”

Four key benefits of Digital Twin Consortium’s expansion

DTC said key benefits of the focused expansion include:

• Improved integration of digital twin technology through advancements in digital engineering practices
• Strengthened security and trustworthiness, including AI-integrated approaches in digital engineering processes
• Enhanced data strategies and frameworks for increased accessibility and traceability towards improved interoperability
• Increased collaboration opportunities across various digital engineering disciplines
