Sammanfattning
This paper presents a case study conducted at a leading car manufacturer, where
the objective was to design a project plan with simulation deliveries interwoven
into the ordinary development plan. Car manufacturers must streamline operations
since the industry currently demands a short time to market due to rapid changes
in market trends. A realisation of the project plan aims at aligning organizational
strategy to transition towards a digital plant environment, supported by a common
product lifecycle management system. The study followed design research methodology,
encompassing interviews with engineers specializing in various instalments of
the original development plan. The project plan outlines key steps and integration
points necessary for successful implementation, addressing challenges and leveraging
opportunities inherent in the digital transformation process. If implemented
successfully, the project plan serves as a strategic point of departure for the study
object, promoting transparency and reduced time to market.
