Abstract
System dynamics in the domain of business infrastructure analysis has been the subject of repeated speculative investigation by academic and enterprise development practitioners. Information technology has been guiding mankind through his evolution, showing when to plough and to harvest new products and methodologies. The integration of the information highway and databases manifested itself into a tangible entity that is central in enterprise management. The author advocates the interplay between the observations of the way the business world works and existing pre-eminent model theories with an attempt to provide an efficient enterprise management behavior model. The model presented is built on the concept of evolutionary intelligent agents. These entities differ from the conventional agents in the sense that they are produced from a pool of individual agents. The model with its assortment of agents will work on the concomitant paths pertaining to product development and production aiming to provide a self organizing environment within a manufacturing firm
