This document specifies a formal description of the manufacturing change management (MCM) processes to provide an organizational and technical solution for the comprehensive mapping and processing of changes between production planning and operations. The aim of this document is to uniformly capture and track change measures, and to sensibly forecast and coordinate the capacities required for change processes in the planning and production departments. This document presents a data-oriented view for implementation of MCM. The most important aspect of the data-oriented view is that the central change element is linked to the objects of the digital factory (i.e. the process, the product and the resource). The basis for MCM and the different views presented in this document are production planning processes. ISO/TR 18828‑1 gives an overview of the ISO 18828 series and links the MCM to the other parts of ISO 18828, focussing on production planning processes, as well as information flows and key performance indicators. The following aspects are covered within this document:— processes of MCM;— roles in MCM;— data-oriented view of MCM;— workflow of MCM.
