https://www.pm-podcast.com/513.8 Organizations will begin creating virtual replicas—“digital twins”—of their projects to test scenarios and optimize solutions before going live. Although this concept has thrived in engineering, it’s just now crossing into mainstream project management. *What’s Driving This Trend* Better data practices, more affordable simulation tools, and AI/ML integration have converged to make digital twins more accessible to a wide range of PMs. Instead of being a specialized perk for high-budget industries, the technology is reaching everyday projects, allowing managers to identify potential hurdles and tweak processes in a risk-free environment. At the same time, like other emerging trends, the full impact won’t hit immediately. In 2025, the volume may only be turned up slightly, but as more PMs see the benefits of “previewing” a project virtually, digital twin adoption will keep growing. *What You Can Do to Get Ahead of the Trend* - Review your project data for completeness—digital twins rely heavily on accurate, up-to-date information. - Explore simulation software options: many now offer user-friendly interfaces for PMs without engineering backgrounds. - Begin small—pilot digital twins on a less critical project to gain confidence and discover best practices.
