This paper presents overviews of both a manufacturing enterprise modelling and quality performance analysis used to perform a number of successful business process re-engineering (BPR) effects. The framework presented in this paper can support the analysis of activities and information flows within the scope of manufacturing application in BPR. In addition, the paper discusses the selection of techniques and IDEF0 tools used to implement the modelling and performance capabilities. To demonstrate and validate the modelling method and process graph, an example has been carried out in designing the product of a television manufacturing company. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
