Product Data Standards

These standards provide the capability to exchange engineering information between different organizations, computer systems and functions in the aerospace and defense environment.

Aerospace Industry Guidelines for Implementing Interoperability Standards for Engineering Data

These guidelines provide strategic and tactical guidance for the adoption by industry of a common standard-based information backbone for engineering data, using the ISO 10303-239 (PLCS) standard. This will enable interoperability for product definition data across the aerospace industry supply network and throughout the product life cycle, from design and production to consumption and operation, reducing the cost, risk and complexity and increasing the speed of working with suppliers and partners at any level.
