Concise Definition

A digital artifact is any combination of professional data, information, knowledge, and wisdom (DIKW Pyramid) [1] expressed in digital form and exchanged within a digital ecosystem.

The Concept

A Digital Thread contains digital artifacts which are a combination of authoritative professional data, information, knowledge, and wisdom addressing stakeholders’ unique perspective in a digital viewpoint that can be digitally represented in a view within an enterprise data-information-knowledge system/s of a materiel system. The Digital Thread seamlessly expedites the controlled interplay of digital artifacts, based on the Digital System Model template, to inform decision makers throughout a system's life cycle by providing the capability to access, integrate and transform disparate data into actionable information in support of reuse.
