Abstract

Abstract Engineering activities, as envisioned in this paper, consist of product specification, process engineering (review and feedback), and finally production (planning, control, and execution of the process and product entity being designed). As “enterprises grow and become geographically separate,” these activities need to be coordinated in new ways. This paper illustrates the requirements of information models and presents an integration approach that is evolving where product (design), process, and production engineers are able to simultaneously interact with each other regardless of time, location, and organizational barriers. These information models are necessary but not limited to engineering activity integration so that product quality will be high and cost will be low. The dynamics of the engineering process will be illustrated using these models.
