Abstract

The chapter is focused on the digital twin concept use as a supporting tool for operation and maintenance management decision-making processes. A digital twin is a virtual representation of a connected physical asset and gives the capability to predict its conditions in the future. Indeed, it allows for decreasing the resources needed to design, produce, and keep technical assets in a good operational state. Therefore, the main goal is to present the digital twin concept implementation possibilities in the area of operation and maintenance management activities performance. As a result, a paper presents a short literature review on the defined research area. Later, the digital twin concept implementation possibilities in relation to management processes in the operation and maintenance area are presented. The work ends with conclusions and directions for further research.
