Manufacturing Process Management

A cornerstone of MPM is the central repository for manufacturing data management (MDM) similar to PDM for design data. MPM takes the product data eBOM (engineering Bill Of Material ) to create the process oriented mBOM (manufacturing) along with a bill of process (BOP). This together with the management of resources such as tools, machines and work centers forms the so called 3PR data (product process plant resources).

The integration of all these tools and activities aids in the exploration of alternative Production Line scenarios; making Assembly Line s more efficient with the aim of reduced lead time to product launch, shorter product times and reduced work in progress (WIP) inventories as well as allowing rapid response to product or product changes.
