The method comprises the steps of: 1) representing manufacturing activities as operations; 2) classifying manufacturing activities as either planned or active; 3) receiving material- or activity-related information; 4) creating an operation list (O) comprising operations, based on the material- or activity-related information; 5) representing active manufacturing activities as operation groups; 6) creating the operation groups by grouping operations in the operation list (O) when activities are to be changed from planned to active state; 7) representing tangible or intangible properties which are modified by manufacturing activities as resources, wherein the modifying comprises use, creation, change and/or deletion of a resource by the corresponding activity; and 8) quantifying the modifying by associating resource data with operations.</p> |
