Automatisierung, intelligente Produktionsplanung und Monitoring sind gängige Anwendungen – daher sind Informationstechnologie (IT)-Systeme aus der Produktion nicht mehr wegzudenken. Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über die aktuellen Entwicklungen und Innovationen im Bereich der Produktions-IT (zum Beispiel Enterprise Resource Planning ERP, Manufacturing Excecution Systems MES und Computer Aided Quality Assurance CAQ), nennt Anwendungsgebiete und beleuchtet deren Potenziale anhand konkreter Fallbeispiele. Es werden darüber hinaus die Herausforderungen diskutiert, welche es im Rahmen von Industrie 4.0 zu meistern gilt.   IT systems nowadays are common in manufacturing environments for applications such as automation, intelligent production planning or monitoring. This article provides an overview about current developments and innovations in production planning and control (e.g. ERP, MES; CAQ), mentions promising areas for application and evaluates their potential referring to case studies. Based on this, challenges coming along with changes within the broad field of Industry 4.0 are discussed.

In consequence of Industrie 4.0, the application of new information and communication technologies is increasing. A central problem of industrial enterprises is the lack of any IT system which would provide required exercises concerning production planning and control (PPC). Therefore, several software systems are applied in manufacturing. Thus the demand arises to intelligently link the available and new IT systems in manufacturing. A multi-agent system offers a modeling concept for a planning support tool of PPC for the intelligent link of several systems and it increases the automation of planning processes. However, the disadvantage of multi-agent systems is that processes of autonomously acting agents are not comprehensible for humans. Nevertheless, in Industrie 4.0 the human shall be involved as the executive body or even as a decision maker. Therefore, this article describes an agent-based approach in which an agent system is used as an interface solution between IT systems and extended by a visualization approach in order to implement a partially autonomous support system for an agent-based PPC.

In der heutigen Zeit sind durch steigende Variantenvielfalt und Individualfertigung sowie enge Lieferzeiten unterstützende IT-Systeme in der Fertigung unerlässlich. Gerade für kleine und mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) stellt dies eine Herausforderung dar, weil individuelle Schnittstellenentwicklungen und maschinenspezifische Anbindungen zeit- und kostenintensiv sind. Mit einer Produktionsplanungs- und Steuerungssystem als Integrationsplattform sowie einer allgemeingültige Schnittstelle zur Maschinenanbindung kann dem bestehenden Handlungsbedarf entsprochen werden.   Nowadays, due to the increasing variety of variants and individual production as well as tight delivery times, supporting IT systems are indispensable in production. This poses a particular challenge for SMEs, since individual interface developments and machine-specific connections are time-consuming and costly. These challenges can be met by using a Production Planning and Control system as an integration platform and a generally valid interface to the machine connection.

Abstract The theoretical aim of the paper is to analyses the main function and concept of production control in operation management. The empirical aim of the paper is to investigate polish production firm opinion about factors affecting production planning and control and also functions of production planning and control. Production control is very important in every factory, and every aspect of operation and production management especially in times of Industry 4.0 conditions. In the paper we presented all classical seven task of production management control. Also there is in the paper an analysis of main factors affecting production control in industrial organization. In the paper we analysed the problems connected with production control. Nowadays in the conditions of Industry 4.0 this is very important concept because the increasing level of digitalization of all industrial processes leads to possibility of detailed analysis of all processes and better level of control. Operation managers should have good level of knowledge about production control and especially quality control. They can use in this many new information tools like statistical methods and artificial intelligence. Especially we think that in the future many function of production control would be assisted by artificial intelligence. We also in the paper give results of research conducted on example of 30 polish production organizations located in Silesia region.

Production planning and control (PPC) is the heart of any manufacturing company and entails tasks such as resource planning, sequencing, or capacity control. While an increasing complexity within production makes it difficult to determine the best production plan, the advances in PHM and the emergence of predictive maintenance also offer new opportunities to optimize PPC. While there is much research on PHM and PPC, little has been done to align both disciplines. Through post-prognostics decision-making, different PPC decisions, such as continuing the production, shutting down a machine, or reducing its workload, can be elevated by a remaining useful life (RUL) estimation. However, it is unclear how exactly this prognostics information can be exploited and how processes, organization, and technology must be aligned to attain a more efficient and flexible production. Further, PHM has long been implemented beyond research, but it is unknown whether and how practitioners intertwine it with their PPC. This work aims to analyze how processual, organizational, and technological changes through PHM can lead to advanced PPC. This goal is attained by means of a multivocal literature review (MLR) in which scientific PPC and PHM literature and standards are analyzed, and an aligned PPC process proposed. The findings are juxtaposed with grey literature, revealing fits and gaps between research and practice, and a research agenda is presented.
