Let’s get started on tomorrow, today
From the UK military’s new push for a war gaming company to develop a digital twin to enhance the training of troops, to first aid training being given online for the first time to help assist the NHS, new methodologies are not just desirable but are becoming a socio-economic necessity.
Traditionally on-site engineering work usually required an engineer to go to customers’ sites physically. But the Coronavirus crisis means that these jobs now need to be prioritised and, where time and costs can be saved, secure remote assistance seems like the way to go. And, with a greater demand for remote assistance, comes an increasing need for training and learning in these capabilities. This brings me back around in a circle to the need to formulate modernised training techniques.
The key to making this transition successfully will be digitalisation and the use of digital twins. A comprehensive digital twin can create an extensive replica of a company’s digital transformation that can focus on improving business value. By mirroring the digital simulation with the real-world impact, corporations can learn, resolve and adopt faster than their competitors or, in the current situation, adjust efficiently to unpredictable circumstances such as a global pandemic.
