Abstract
Quality Management (QM) issues are together with production costs and delivery time one of the three main pillars of Lean Manufacturing. Although, Quality Operations Management should be supported by IT Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), in practice it is very difficult to automate QM support on MES level because of its heterarchical and unpredictable nature. There is a lack of practical models that bind QM and MES. Authors try to fill this gap by proposed agent based MES architecture for QM support. This paper shows both concept of proposed architecture and its practical realisation on the example of automotive electronics device manufacturing.
