Abstract
Next Generation Manufacturing Systems (NGMS) will support Next Generation Manufacturing Enterprises (NGMEs). NGMEs have been characterized as virtual enterprises, dynamically combining customers, multiple design and production entities, and suppliers, into organizations that will form to meet a customer need, fulfil the need, and then dissolve. NGMEs are expected be the dominant form of manufacturing enterprise in a time of unpredictable competitive challenges and a rapidly, chaotically, changing global business environment
