Abstract

The environmental efficiency based decision making to decide for optimal manufacturing routes in the decentralized production, has become very complicated. The draining of skilled workers, limited functionalities of decision support tools, localisation of information resources, unavailability of adequate environmental knowledge, systematic management of the same and non automated information exchange between various information tools are among the causes that generally hamper the decision making process. The complexities can be resolved if the mechanism for environmental data collection, structuring and retrieval over a web environment is developed so that both collaborative and individual decision making is possible. This paper discusses the case study from the automotive manufacturing area and the development of environmental knowledge management tool capable of providing planners and production managers the knowledge related to the potential environmental impact of the manufacturing choices in a distributed manufacturing scenario.
