Abstract

【In customer-oriented make-to-order manufacturing environments, the works of BOM changes due to the changes of product specification and engineering are closely connected with almost all departments such as sales, engineering, production, procurement, cost, after service, etc within an enterprise. So, the contents of BOM changes must be instantly reflected on the related works among the departments. To effectively process these complex works of BOM changes, types of changes on product specification and engineering and types of BOM changes linked with those must be systematically defined, classified and managed by information systems. Thus, it is necessary to introduce solutions such as BPM and SOA in order to efficiently deal with complex business processes like BOM change management. This paper proposes a methodology of constructing information systems based on BPM and SOA. The proposed methodology defines the relationship between processes of BPM for definition, execution, monitoring, etc of business processes and services of SOA for connection among information systems within an enterprise, and presents a scheme of practically applying BPM and SOA solutions to actual business works. To show an utilization of the proposed methodology, the prototype system for product BOM management is implemented in order to efficiently deal with the works of BOM changes due to the changes of product specification and engineering.】
