Static and dynamic Assessment of sociotechnical manufacturing systems

过程控制和技术诀窍是德国作为制造业所在地的独特因素。在目前的尽职调查过程中，在收购资本或购买公司股份时，生产技术方面经常被完全忽视。因此，拟议研究项目的科学目标是开发一种方法，使社会技术制造系统的基本建模和评估成为可能。根据系统理论，第一步是建立和实现一个功能模型，以便收集和描述生产资料和技术技能的属性概况。此外，社会技术制造系统的组织是其动态表征的基本因素。因此，在本研究项目的范围内，将开发面向目标的生产系统组织的设计模型。此外，应该评估这些子系统之间的关系并确定紧急属性。随后，它们将被整合到一个整体模型中来描述社会技术生产系统。在此基础上，推导出企业生产技术潜力的评价方法。此外，还对社会技术系统对市场变化的响应进行了建模和评估，如产品种类、产品范围和产量的变化。在本研究项目的背景下，将开发社会技术制造系统的描述模型。这是第一次分析和描述基本关系和涌现性质。通过对社会技术系统的全面评估，可以减少投资者或金融服务提供者与公司所有者在技术导向交易中的信息不对称。此外，研究结果可用于分析生产系统并发现优化可能性。这也反映了这个基础研究项目的经济效益。信息日益迅速和全球性的转移是造成生产结构变化的主要因素之一。一方面，全球和简单的信息获取加强了产品和生产技术新理念的实施。另一方面，有关公司能力的信息可以更快地获得，并可能被模仿。因此，第二阶段的目的是通过增加所使用的生产系统的抗模仿和抗替代方面来扩展已开发的方法。

Process control and technical know-how are the unique factors of Germany as a manufacturing location. In current due diligence processes, which are applied during the acquisition of capital or purchase of company shares, production-technological aspects are often completely disregarded.Thus, the scientific object of the proposed research project is to develop a method which enables fundamental modeling and evaluation of socio technical manufacturing systems. According to systems theory the first step is to build and operationalize a functional model in order to collect and describe the property profiles of the production means and technological skills. In addition the organization of socio technical manufacturing systems is an elementary factor for its dynamic characterization. Therefore, within the scope of this research project a design model for a target-oriented organization of production systems will be developed.Furthermore, relations between these subsystems should be evaluated and emergent properties identified. Subsequently, they will be integrated in a holistic model to describe the socio technical production system. Based on this holistic model a method to evaluate the production-technological potential of the company will be derived. Furthermore, the response of the socio technical system to shifts of the market such as the change of the variants, product range and production volume is modeled and evaluated.In the context of this research project a description model for socio technical manufacturing systems will be developed. For the first time fundamental relations and emergent properties will be analyzed and described.Using a holistic assessment of the socio technical system Information asymmetries between investors or financial service providers and company owners during technology oriented transactions can be reduced. Furthermore, the research results can be used to analyze production systems and to discover optimization possibilities. This also reflects the economic benefit of this fundamental research project.The increasingly fast and global transfer of information is one of the main factors contributing to the change in production structures. On the one hand global und simple access to information strengthens the implementation of new ideas in products and production technologies. On the other hand information concerning competences of companies is made available quicker and may be imitated. Therefore, the purpose of the second period is to expand the developed method by adding the aspects of imitation- and substitution resistance of the used production system.
