Description
Rivian is bridging the gap from Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) to a full-scale digital twin by treating asset data as a product not a byproduct. In this session, we'll show you how assets are structured in Autodesk Forma, live-linked to model elements in Autodesk Tandem using Tandem Connect, and integrated with enterprise resource planning (ERP) and computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) systems to form a single, reliable asset backbone. We'll break down the data standards, ID strategy, and integration patterns that connect design, construction, and operations. Using real examples unique to Rivian manufacturing plants, we'll share lessons learned from early pilots, and we'll describe how we manage change so teams across design, field ops, maintenance, and finance can all trust and use the same digital twin.
Key Learnings
- Learn about assessing digital twin value by tracing use cases from design and commissioning through operations.
- Learn how to define an asset data model in Autodesk Forma that supports downstream digital twin and operations workflows.
- Learn how to configure Autodesk Tandem Connect to live-link model elements, Autodesk Forma assets, and external system identifiers.
- Learn how to integrate ERP and CMMS platforms with Autodesk Forma and Autodesk Tandem using stable IDs, APIs, and governance rules.
