The motivation for this Workshop came from the European research project i4Q, which aims to provide an IoT-based Reliable Industrial Data Services (RIDS), a complete suite consisting of 22 i4Q Solutions, able to manage the huge amount of industrial data coming from cheap cost-effective, smart, and small size interconnected factory devices for supporting manufacturing online monitoring and control.
One of the 22 solutions developed by the i4Q project is an audit procedure for a manufacturer's declaration on the data quality of a manufacturing line, this forms the basis for the planned workshop. The audit guideline to be developed in this Workshop aims to ensure that all data resulting from the manufacturing processes are accurate and reliable. This audit guideline can be applied to manufacturing resources (machine, cell, or manufacturing line) to measure and assess data quality in manufacturing.
The workshop will create two CEN-CENELEC Workshop Agreements (CWA) with the proposed titles: "Manufacturer's declaration on the data quality of a manufacturing line – Guideline for an audit procedure" and "Manufacturer's declaration on the data quality of a manufacturing line – Audit criteria".
The first CWA “Manufacturer's declaration on the data quality of a manufacturing line – Guideline for an audit procedure” will define a guideline for an audit procedure for a manufacturer's declaration on the data quality of a manufacturing line. The guide aims to ensure that all data resulting from the manufacturing processes are accurate and reliable. The procedure describes the activities to be performed during audits as well as the elements of the manufacturing resources to be audited. It is based on the basics of audit standard ISO 19011:2018.
The first CWA will also define prerequisites for the use of the guideline, including the certification according to quality management standard ISO 9001:2015 and the realization of capable measurement systems in industrial manufacturing as well as capable IT-infrastructures.
It can also be used to supplement current quality certifications (i.e., DIN EN ISO 9000:2015–11) by adding the need of generating and ensuring data quality during manufacturing processes.
The second CWA “Manufacturer's declaration on the data quality of a manufacturing line – Audit criteria” will define specific requirements to assess the data quality of a manufacturing line.
The planned CWAs are intended to be used by manufacturers from all industries to ensure the data quality of a manufacturing line.
The proposer of the workshop is CERTH the Greek Information Technologies Institute, Centre for Research & Technology Hellas and the secretariat holder of this workshop is DIN, the German Institute for Standardization.
The secretariat is held by DIN the German Standardization Body, Ms Friederike Nabrdalik.
The kick-off meeting will be held on Wednesday, 19th July 2023, from 13:00 – 17:00 CEST as a virtual meeting.
The Workshop participation will be open to all interested parties. Interested parties are kindly requested to submit comments on the draft Project Plan via the 'Commenting form' (see below) until 2nd July 2023 and to register to the workshop by completing the 'registration form' (see below) and sending it by an email to the workshop secretary Ms Friederike Nabrdalik.
