Abstract
Production companies in high-wage countries face growing complexity in their production conditions due to increasing variance and shorter product lifecycles. To enable the needed flexibility in production with respect to short-term changes, factory planning has to be transparent in such a way that the effects on production are traceable. Therefore, a modular planning approach combined with a continuous information management is necessary. The combination of the approaches of Condition Based Factory Planning and Virtual Production Intelligence provides the basis for an analysis of process dependencies during factory planning projects. This analysis is supposed to increase transparency of information flows and to reach traceability.
