Process Model For Holistic Factory And Quality Planning In The Context Of A Reorganization

Abstract

Increasingly dynamic markets and shorter product life cycles are forcing companies to continuously adapt their factories in the form of reorganizations. To ensure that such reorganization projects can be implemented successfully, it is important to integrate quality management into factory planning at an early stage. In this context, holistic quality management systems must be made more agile and responsive to meet changing requirements. This article presents a process model for integrating quality management systems into the factory planning process in accordance with VDI 5200. For this purpose, identified interfaces are presented and quality gates are developed on their basis.
