As a consequence of higher product diversification through more variants, the automotive industry is increasingly focusing on its core competencies and in this course reduces its vertical integration. Today product value is therefore created by a large range of partners that organize themselves in complex supply networks. At the same time the relentless drive towards efficiency is reducing time and stock buffers between these partners. This development has made production and logistic processes in supply networks but also within companies vulnerable to unforeseen disturbances. A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)-based hybrid control architecture is capable of increasing supply chain transparency by communicating object-related status information to partners. A real-time provisioning of this data then enables dedicated information systems to identify the disturbance and consider its implications for a potential adaption of the production plan.
