The manufacturing industry is evolving and starting to use 3D models as the central knowledge artifact for product data and product definition, or what is known as Model-based Definition (MBD). The Model-based Enterprise (MBE) uses MBD as a way to transition away from using traditional paper-based drawings and documentation. As MBD grows in popularity, it is imperative to understand what information is needed in the transition from drawings to models so that models represent all the relevant information needed for processes to continue efficiently. Finding this information can help define what data is common amongst different models in different stages of the lifecycle, which could help establish a Common Information Model. The Common Information Model is a source that contains common information from domain specific elements amongst different aspects of the lifecycle. To help establish this Common Information Model, information about how models are used in industry within different workflows needs to be understood. To retrieve this information, a survey mechanism was administered to industry professionals from various sectors. Based on the results of the survey a Common Information Model could not be established. However, the results gave great insight that will help in further investigation of the Common Information Model.
制造业正在不断发展，并开始将3D模型用作产品数据和产品定义的核心知识工件，即所谓的基于模型的定义（MBD）。基于模型的企业（MBE）将MBD用作一种从使用传统纸质图纸和文档过渡的方式。随着MBD越来越受欢迎，了解从图纸到模型的过渡中需要哪些信息至关重要，以便模型能够代表流程高效持续所需的所有相关信息。找到这些信息有助于定义在生命周期不同阶段不同模型之间的通用数据，这有助于建立通用信息模型。通用信息模型是一个包含生命周期不同方面特定领域元素的通用信息的来源。为了帮助建立这个通用信息模型，需要了解模型在不同工作流程中的行业使用方式。为了获取这些信息，对来自各个行业的专业人士进行了一项调查。根据调查结果，无法建立通用信息模型。然而，这些结果提供了深刻的见解，将有助于对通用信息模型进行进一步研究。
