Production design

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Production design is the organizational design of the interaction of production factors for the industrial production and utilization of material services. It implicitly or explicitly follows a production strategy .

Explanations

The production and utilization of non-cash benefits is the core task of manufacturing companies and takes place in the production division. According to VDI, production is understood as the area of ​​a company that is directly and indirectly involved in the manufacture of the products. The design area of ​​production thus includes all producing and all organizing and coordinating tasks relating to the production and utilization of material services:

  • manufacturing and assembling
  • Work preparation
  • Construction, development and project planning
  • Production logistics

Theories and models

In the context of production design, various theories, models, methods and tools are used with the aim of effective and efficient production. A key idea here is to concentrate all design measures on increasing the value-adding share compared to all activities in the area of ​​production. This idea is the term Lean Manufacturing or Production Lean subsumed.
