Abstract
A work area combines several manufacturing and assembly areas organizationally together, linked by storage, transportation and handling systems. The purpose of the work area is to enable the production of a salable product. For the functional design of a work area, the order type (customer or stock production), the type of procurement, the organization of production and assembly and the type of production planning and control must be determined. This is described in more detail in this chapter and forms the basis for the spatial design, which is discussed in Chap. 10.
