The idea of digital twins began way back in the 70s with NASA’s use of pairing technology. They created a system that mirrored the vehicles they sent to space. This is how they determined the best course of action for rescuing the astronauts from Apollo 13.
Imagine being able to test scenarios for your products, processes or facilities before adopting them for your business. That’s what digital twins are for. Already, companies around the globe are creating and using this technology to improve processes, supply chains, facilities management and more. Below are just a few examples of how digital twin technology is transforming a range of different industries along with the fabric of our lives.
The past nine or so months have changed our views on workplaces more than the entire previous decade. It’s great news for the proptech sector.

Facilities Management means keeping on top of A LOT of different tasks and functions.

Rushing your choice can result in a system that makes life harder, not easier. There are many CMMSs on the market, so understanding exactly what you need will help you make the right decision. We’ve pulled together some key areas that should be considered before going digital.
