The principal causes are suggested to be poor development methodology, poor tools used for development and implementation, and poor knowledge on how such systems are best built. This work ...

A complication that must be considered when striving to achieve a completely flexible control system is the occurrence of faults. The structure of the control system must be such that new solutions to new error situations can be easily implemented into the existing structure. This paper presents a reference architecture of a manufacturing control system whose main feature is to provide flexibility. An important part in achieving this flexibility in the control system is the database implementation. The database is described with the help of an Entity Relationship model. The Entity-Relationship model is then extended to deal with error situations using a concept known as exception handling.

One step of such management deals with prioritising those disturbances which should undergo root cause analysis. The focus of this work is on two areas. First, investigating current challenges faced by manufacturing companies when prioritising root cause analysis of production disturbances. Second, identifying the stakeholders and factors impacted by production disturbances. Understanding the current challenges and identifying impacted stakeholders and factors allows the development of more efficient prioritisation strategies and, thus, contributes to the reduction of frequency and impact of disturbances.Design/methodology/approachTo achieve the intended purpose of this research, a qualitative approach was chosen. A series of interviews was conducted with practitioners, to identify current challenges. A series of focus groups was also held, to identify the impacted stakeholders and factors by disturbances.Fin...
