Manufacturing

Translate released product definitions into governed production plans, readiness, execution evidence, exact as-built configuration and acceptance.

Available now

Available now for Flows 27–38. It does not command PLCs, CNCs, robots or safety systems and does not post payroll or accounting.

What this module does

Manufacturing connects the exact released PLM handoff to MBOM, independently released plans and packs, finite readiness, sequential execution, cost evidence, genealogy-derived as-built records and product acceptance without replacing the Assembly custody kernel or deterministic machine control.

Primary roles

Manufacturing Engineer, Product Engineer, Production Manager, Production Planner, Production Supervisor, Production Operator, Stores Officer, Quality Inspector and Configuration Manager.

Inventory meaning

No material-stock authority. Flow 38 alone posts explicit paired ledger movements for checkout/return and service block/release of the same governed serialized tooling identity; it creates no quantity. Receipts, material issues, Assembly custody and all other stock behavior remain unchanged.

Capabilities

PLM-to-production handoff

Exact released PLM source, immutable MBOM translation, material coverage and independently approved routings.

Controlled execution

Immutable visual work instructions, signed software/test packs, sequential attributable attempts, MES evidence gates and exact manufacturing NCR references.

Readiness, tooling, capacity and cost

Approved work centres, exact cutting-tool and fixture lifecycles, calibrated identities, named qualifications, finite dispatch loads and immutable variance evidence.

As-built and acceptance

Exact genealogy snapshots, independent Quality/Configuration acceptance, then sequential FAT, SAT and commissioning evidence.

Authority boundary

Assembly retains stock/custody authority; Manufacturing never commands machines or safety controls and does not post payroll or accounting.

Inputs, outputs and handoffs

Receives

An exact released PLM handoff, released MBOM, existing Assembly work, available material/custody evidence, controlled documents and qualified resources.

Produces

Released manufacturing definitions, exact tooling/fixture lifecycle and custody evidence, dispatch evidence, sequential operation attempts, test/results, cost variance, genealogy-derived as-built configuration and FAT/SAT/commissioning evidence.

Handoff

Engineering supplies the exact design source; Inventory/Assembly retain material custody; Quality and Configuration independently accept results and as-built evidence.
