This project is to enhance US companies’ design, production, future new product deployment, and market dominance in the US market and support the promotion of Made-in-USA national manufacturing strategy. Some video clips for showing Volkswagen’s transparent factory in Dresden, Germany are good information sources for the similar work. The project work should include the consideration of project management activities in integrating various system elements and/or sub-system elements for future efficient plant operations in a specified

industries developed basic knowledge of theprocesses as well as manufacturing logistics, which was followed by expanding electronicindustry and factory automation. By the mid 80s, investment in automation and total qualitymanagement began to show considerable promise. Rise in computer industry led to enormousgrowth in both hardware and software. Through the use of computer technology, flexibleautomation integrates product, process and management information into a single interactiveframework, which reduces the number of operations. By late nineties, Internet basedmanufacturing was the natural extension of these paradigms, where an enterprise could respondto delivery, quality and variety.

engineering, and lean manufacturing. PLM, the philosophy, is still emerging andin its formative stages. To maintain a simple and conservative definition, PLM can be brokendown into three processes: product development, supply chain management, and enterpriseprocess integration. (IBM, 2002). The most apparent benefactor of PLM philosophies is productdevelopment processes. A traditional design process is linear in nature and has limitedcommunication flow between its layers. This leads to a significant amount of redesign when theproduct reaches manufacturing. It also leads to increased time-to-market. PLM emphasizesparallel design process activities. Instead of being linear in nature, components activities of thedesign process, including departments

To accomplish this taskpractitioners must have a working knowledge of work design and measurement.Time studies have been done for many decades.
