Participative Simulation environment for Integral Manufacturing enterprise renewal

Objective

In today's competitive and global market place, manufacturing companies are forced to optimise their production at an ever-increasing rate. However, it is still common practice that specialised staff groups improve only one aspect (for instance, technology). This will cause sub-optimal results. Therefore, a participative and more integral approach is developed (PSIM).

Activities are grouped into work packages:
1. Needs: Three companies define their needs.
2 Ontology: A language is developed to digitally model the enterprise.
3 Tools: Two tools will be developed: a socio-technical one to help developing an optimal organisational structure and a ergonomical one.
4 The "navigator", needed to make the PSIM system usable for different participants.
5 Integration with ERP by substracting data from ERP systems.
6 Validation: field test at the pilot sites.

The first results show that in three assembly departments more than 20 improvements were discovered by applying PSIM.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
