| Abstract |
In the production planning and control field, assessing the performance of a manufacturing system is a multi-dimensional problem in which neglected dimensions may lead to hidden inefficiencies and missed opportunities for gaining a competitive advantage. In this paper, a new data formalization method is proposed to model a manufacturing system by simultaneously considering value creation and technical, economic, and environmental performance. The proposed method combines the principles of Material Flow Analysis and a new data structure that exploits some characteristics of the Multi-layer Stream Mapping and the Enterprise Input-Output methods to obtain a data-driven approach, typical of Industry 4.0. The proposed method can deal with complex systems and allows to consider also non-value-added activities such as transport and inventories. The implementation of the method and its advantages are shown through a numerical example based on a recycled plastic pipeline manufacturing system. The method shows positive synergies and mutual benefits between sustainable production, lean principles, and data-driven approaches and technologies of Industry 4.0. The method improves the alignment of environmental, technical, economic, and value creation information between operational and strategical levels, removing redundancies in data collection, conditioning, and processing activities, thus reducing partial information, hidden risks and opportunities, and inconsistencies. |
