4. Understanding of the design and development tools for production and information systems.
5. Elaboration of plans to project and to budget the working and maintenance conditions.
Contents:  By doing a project work the students develop a model for an industrial facility in which the focus can on one or more of the following areas. By doing a stakeholder analysis the strategy for the facility is developed. The layout should be designed under consideration of the technology (machines, processes, sequences, storage, transportation units, logistics, etc.), information technology, human resources and organisation. The human resource includes considerations on degree of automation, and how groups / teams should be involved in the design and working stages for the facility. Organisation includes questions on core capabilities, outsourcing, qualifications and competence, etc. The design of the facility should contain life cycle, maintenance and economical considerations.
