Abstract
Organisational and technical processes of manufacturing companies are becoming more and more complex while the pressure for flexibility increases. The biggest challenge here is still the integration of different systems in a coherent transparent way. In order to further vertical integration in the automation pyramid, this paper presents a solution based on use BPM technology, more specifically process modelling and execution based on BPMN to integrate shopfloor with top level planning. Our full-stack solution is currently in active development with our customers. One main advantage is that through coherent usage of BPMN processes from top to bottom, all monitored data during execution can always be stored in the right context, which saves a lot of effort compared to the state of the art in manufacturing systems.
