Abstract

This work presents an overview of Model-R – a business process support system conceived to support introducing Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) at the companies. This model is mainly based on the Integrated Product and Process Development (IPPD) approach. It will be briefly described in terms of its activities, information flow, timeliness, and intervention mechanism. The model is intended to be flexible enough to be applied at companies from different sizes and belonging to diverse branches. The research team is currently running application tests of this model at a few companies with some promising results so far.
