Process mapping for complex, multi-disciplinary, multi-stakeholder aerospace MR&O business models

世界各地的飞机制造商正在从传统的设计和制造方法（如集成产品开发团队和精益生产）过渡。工业4.0是一个流行的名称，用来描述信息系统在整个产品生命周期中日益增长的重要性。现有的基于软件的产品生命周期管理（PLM）和认证系统的结构通常没有将PLM与需求管理作为通用模型集成。Cascade Aerospace Inc.是一家加拿大公司，专门从事国内和国际第三方飞机的定制改装设计、制造和认证。尽管许多行业都在开发数字系统来管理整个产品生命周期中的工程和制造变化，但像Cascade这样的企业的工程数据管理具有集成来自原始设备制造商（OEM）的变化和管理认证和测试要求的复杂性。这个项目的目的是探索这个利基加拿大航空航天商业模式复杂的利益相关者互动特征。过程映射技术将用于创建一个基础架构，用于开发适当的数据管理策略，该策略可以开发和定制，以最适合Cascade Aerospace的需求。

Aircraft manufacturers around the world are transitioning from traditional design and manufacturingapproaches such as integrated product development teams and Lean Production. Industry 4.0 is a populardesignation to describe the growing importance of information systems across the entire product lifecycle. Thestructure of existing, software-based, product lifecycle management (PLM) and certification systems do not, ingeneral, integrate PLM with requirements management as a generic model.Cascade Aerospace Inc. is a Canadian corporation specializing in the design, manufacturing and certification ofcustomized modifications to domestic and international third-party aircraft. Although many industries aredeveloping digital systems to manage engineering and manufacturing changes throughout the product lifecycle,engineering data management for businesses such as Cascade has the added complexity of integrating changesfrom the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and managing certification and testing requirements. Theobjective of this project is to explore the complex stakeholder interactions characteristic of this niche Canadianaerospace business model. Process mapping techniques will be used to create a foundational architecture forthe development of an appropriate data management strategy that can be developed and customized to best suitthe needs of Cascade Aerospace.
