    The ability to re-configure effectively a global production network to meet the ever changing demands of business product-service requirements is a significant problem for manufacturing industry that raises issues for the dynamic sharing and reuse of information and knowledge between systems and across domains. The research approach discussed in this paper focuses on the provision of software services to support this need. These services are underpinned by new enterprise modelling methods and a hierarchy of reference semantics that provide the core basis for knowledge sharing across the multiple factors that need to be addressed in effective production network configuration.
