title = "An engineering prototype workflow management system",
abstract = "Engineering workflow management is a key focus for European manufacturing companies, however, issues such as time required to gather data, develop systems and integrate into current manufacturing environments presents obstacles for adoption. This paper presents a high level prototype of an engineering workflow system developed in conjunction with a medical device company to address this gap. The prototype data was used to construct a high level artifact which illustrates how the implementation of Advanced Platform for Manufacturing Engineering and Product Lifecycle Management (7th Programme, {"}amePLM{"}) engineering workflow management system can improve product design and development processes through increased productivity by capturing workflows which previously went unquantifiable.",
