During the development of a Global Project, data are exchanged on a continuous basis between production plants and engineering departments, with the constant support of Technologies, so that the production stage can be reached with the clear quality and cost objectives, agreed upon with the Customer and in line with plant production capacity and technologies.
The preventive techniques and control tools used in the management of production processesare:

• Designing of Process flow;
  
• Process/assembly FMEAs;
  
• Designation, documentation and control of special characteristic ;
  
• Control plans and sampling plans;
  
• Manufacturing cycles / Assembly panels / Job cards;
  
• Job instructions;
  
• Product qualification tests and final release;
  
• Process check for pilot runs and production start-up;
  
• Reporting for the management of anomalies detected during the process verification;
  
• SPC for Process Capability analysis and process monitoring;
  
• Layout inspection, functional test and Final product audit;
  
• Acceptance criteria;
  
• Measuring system analysis;
  
• Analysis of rejected pieces and management of corrective actions;
  
• Preventive maintenance plans and TPM techniques.

In a "process oriented approach", the adoption of the ERP System provides a valuable management tool to plan out and monitor the entire process of transformation of raw/semiprocessed materials.
This opportunity enables the production departments to interface effectively with the administrative staff and work in liaison with all company areas, from Sales to Procurement, from Maintenance to Quality Control, from Job Scheduling to Logistics.
