Manufacturing Execution Systems, known as MES are software programs created to oversee and enhance production operations. They play a role, in boosting efficiency resolving production line issues swiftly and ensuring transparency by collecting and analyzing real time data. MES systems effectively manage production resources like materials ...
Project production management ( PPM) [ 1][ 2] is the application of operations management [ 2][ 3] to the delivery of capital projects. The PPM framework is based on a project as a production system view, [ 1][ 2][ 3] in which a project transforms inputs (raw materials, information, labor, plant & machinery) into outputs (goods and services).
Scheduling is the process of arranging, controlling and optimizing work and workloads in a production process. Companies use backward and forward scheduling to allocate plant and machinery resources, plan human resources, plan production processes and purchase materials. Forward scheduling is planning the tasks from the date resources become ...
Production planning is the future of production. It can help in efficient manufacturing or setting up of a production site by facilitating required needs. [2] A production plan is made periodically for a specific time period, called the planning horizon. It can comprise the following activities:
In industry, product lifecycle management (PLM) is the process of managing the entire lifecycle of a product from its inception through the engineering, design and manufacture, as well as the service and disposal of manufactured products. [1][2] PLM integrates people, data, processes, and business systems and provides a product information ...
Manufacturing process management. Manufacturing process management (MPM) is a collection of technologies and methods used to define how products are to be manufactured. MPM differs from ERP/MRP which is used to plan the ordering of materials and other resources, set manufacturing schedules, and compile cost data. [1]
Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) is used in the Aerospace or automotive supply chain for establishing confidence in suppliers and their production processes. Actual measurements are taken from the parts produced and are used to complete the various test sheets of PPAP. "All customer engineering design record and specification ...
Process analytical technology (PAT) has been defined by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a mechanism to design, analyze, and control pharmaceutical manufacturing processes through the measurement of critical process parameters (CPP) which affect the critical quality attributes (CQA). The concept aims at understanding the ...
