Applying an Enterprise Architecture Approach to Modeling Production Procesess.

One of the most important aspects of work planning at the production system level is the contract negotiation process. In this process, it is necessary to negotiate the production volume as well as lead time acceptable to both the production system and the customer. Failure to obtain sufficiently accurate forecasts regarding order volume and task completion time may result in penalties and/or loss of new orders in the future. The article proposes an innovative approach to modeling complex production planning problems based on customer orders. What distinguishes this approach is the ability to determine which orders will not be fulfilled due to which tasks. The authors proposed the use of enterprise architecture in the process of the preliminary analysis to obtain various information from the organization affecting the functioning of the production system. This approach was demonstrated with an example for which a mathematical model was built, and the obtained simulation results are stored on an enterprise data bus for possible reuse at the enterprise level.
