Nyhuis}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {The increasing interconnectedness and complexity of production processes raise the susceptibility of production systems to failure. Therefore, the ability to respond quickly to failures is increasingly becoming a competitive factor. The research project "Sustainable failure management in manufacturing SMEs" is developing a methodology to identify failures in the production and select preventive and reactive measures in order to correct failures and to establish sustainable failure management systems. }, journal = {International Journal of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering}, volume = {8}, number = {2}, year = {2014}, pages = {240 - 243}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/9997306}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/86}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 86, 2014}, }
