Design & development of collaborative workflow for lean production in a repair & overhaul industry

Aerospace fuel nozzles maintenance, repair and overhaul operation is a dynamic process as the workflow is unpredictable. Further detail checking and analyzing on defects are needed in order to determine the workflow. The traditional paper based of work in progress information had been implementing a...
