Framework proposition and technical guidelines for manufacturers of custom made tools, machinery and special equipment

U radu se daje pregled najnovijih dostignuća u modernim oblicima organizacije, suradnje i fleksibilnosti, trendovima i predviđanjima u automobilskoj industriji kao reprezentativnom kupcu alata, strojeva i specijalne opreme, kao i upravljanje vijekom trajanja, održivosti i mogućnosti stvaranja nove vrijednosti u tim industrijskim sektorima. Na temelju toga predlaže se okvirno načelo nazvano "pametni alat, stroj i specijalna oprema". Daje se dio istraživanja provedenog na slovenskim proizvođačima kod kojih su prepoznati tehnološki indikatori važni za implementaciju predloženog načela, te su rangirani u skladu s njihovom važnosti. Daju se i dodatne primjedbe koje su stavili proizvođači, te kritička analiza i rasprava rezultata.This paper overviews the state-of-the-art in modern forms of organization, collaboration and flexibility, trends and forecasts of the automotive industry as a representative buyer of tools, machines and special equipment, as well as life cycle management, sustainability and possibility for added value creation in these industry sectors. Based on this, a framework called "smart tool, machine, and special equipment" is proposed. A part of the research done on Slovene manufacturers is presented, where the technological indicators important in the implementation of the proposed framework are identified and ranked regarding to their importance. Additional suggestions by the manufacturers are also provided, as well as critical analysis and discussion of the findings
