Digital Thread

Aerospace digital thread that reaches all the way to evidence.

JPGAerospace connects the systems your program already uses so engineering, safety, software, hardware, test, suppliers, leadership, and certification teams can work from one traceable operating model.

Program spine

Not one giant tool. One governed model across the tools.

Stakeholder intent

Stakeholder intent

Mission, business, aircraft, regulatory, operator, and customer needs.

Requirements and architecture

Requirements and architecture

System requirements, interfaces, allocation, behavior, and design decisions.

Safety and compliance

Safety and compliance

ARP4754, ARP4761, certification basis, means of compliance, and risk controls.

Implementation evidence

Implementation evidence

LRU, software, firmware, hardware, code, reviews, configuration, and supplier data.

Verification artifacts

Verification artifacts

Procedures, results, anomalies, coverage, conformity, and objective evidence.

Certification package

Certification package

Compliance matrices, plans, summaries, authority packages, STC, TSO, PMA, and TC support.

What changes

The program can answer hard questions before they become late surprises.

A useful digital thread is not a poster. It is a decision system: baselines, link rules, ownership, change impact, dashboard logic, exportable evidence, and controlled AI access over approved artifacts.

Which requirements have no accepted verification evidence?

Answered from source-linked records instead of a manual status hunt.

What hazards are affected by this architecture or software change?

Answered from source-linked records instead of a manual status hunt.

Which Jira defects, code reviews, test results, and configuration items support this release?

Answered from source-linked records instead of a manual status hunt.

What artifacts are missing before the next certification review?

Answered from source-linked records instead of a manual status hunt.

What can private AI summarize with source links for engineering review?

Answered from source-linked records instead of a manual status hunt.

Aircraft change example

Follow one change all the way to certification evidence.

The best way to understand a digital thread is to see it answer a hard program question: what changed, what requirements and hazards are affected, what supplier evidence supports it, what verification proves it, and what certification artifacts are ready for review?

View The Evidence Chain

Change

Retrofit a connected health-monitoring LRU on an existing aircraft.

Inputs

Stakeholder needs, certification basis, supplier SAS/HAS, ICDs, safety data, PLM and ALM records.

Trace

Requirements, allocation, implementation, verification, validation, substantiation, and authority package.

Outputs

Design compliance summary, evidence matrix, change impact report, and certification artifact index.

Safe AI layer

AI sits on top of governed engineering data.

We design private, permission-aware AI workflows for retrieval, gap analysis, review preparation, impact analysis, and draft artifacts. Outputs cite controlled sources and stay under human engineering review.

BoundaryCustomer IP stays inside approved environments.

ControlITAR/export-control classification drives access.

EvidenceEvery answer links back to source records.

ReviewHumans decide what enters the program baseline.
