This presentation dives into one specific aspect of a typical PI Governance Framework, the Standard Data Model. Through growth and acquisitions, the amount of data as well as the number of engineering use-cases continues to grow rapidly within organizations. In order to sustain this growth into the future, companies will benefit from standardizing their data model in Asset Framework. The Standard Data Model reduces the required support and maintenance, provides guidance to users, and enables further automation.

Key topics of this presentation are the definition of standard AF element templates, and the organization of AF elements. Based on real-world experience, we will share our generic approach towards reducing the number of AF element templates, while continuing to service all engineering applications. This structured approach ensures optimized data management, improved system performance, and a sustainable digital landscape for your companies’ evolving needs.
