Abstract
Often, the development of Computer Aided Process Engineering (CAPE) for Manufacturing Engineering Departments (MED) leads to isolated Databases (DB) because of the past vertical orientation of system design (one database — one application). This usually caused a tremendous amount of data redundancy, heterogeneous manufacturing DB and, as a result, a configuration of manufacturing design that was far from optimal. Our objective here is to overcome those difficulties, by proposing a new Information System scheme, based on the construction of two models with interactions in two directions: the “Business Model” is a representation of business processes according to different views of the company: Function, Activity, Milestone... and at different levels of detail: Conceptual, Logical and Physical. The second one consists in modeling the trade objects (common and specific) with their mutual interactions. Eventually, this project should lead to a standardization of process specification (resource and operation stated references) with special emphasis on the data handled during the engineering stage.
