Design of service co-operation processes within engineering networks based on internet enabled technologies and tools
Abstract
In the age of globalisation and increasing competition, companies have to differentiate from their competitors in order to be successful. One way to do so is to take care about the special customer's needs. This often results in customized products. Even more important is a fast and efficient service for those products. Since many companies have reduced their production depth, co-operation networks between manufacturers and their suppliers become more and more important. Within this paper, the design and implementation of a new co-operation platform supporting co-operative engineering processes is described and validated by an example service scenario.
