Abstract

In order for the manufacturing industry and closely related engineering disciplines to be competitive and productive, business structures and practices have to adapt to global changes and harder competition on all levels of operation. An engineering approach based on engineering services provides a foundation for commercial of the shelf services to be combined and utilized between engineering enterprises in the development of automation and control systems. A service based operations model would enable the utilization of expert services as a part of the development process to improve system quality, increase productivity and provide better work process management as well as allow easier integration to later life-cycle operations. This paper presents opportunities this kind of a conceptual approach offers and outlines some of the related research challenges that need further investigation.
