Abstract Based on the EU-FP7, ActionPlanT project aims at assessing and ranking Information and Communication Technology (ICT) that will have the most impact on European competitiveness. One of the outcomes is a classification of ICT for design and manufacturing. ICT, used inside companies, can be classified in different levels according to company’s organization. The paper describes layered software architecture for design management and manufacturing execution of company which intensively uses ICT. The ICT classification can link two perspectives which are developed industrial strategy and used design and manufacturing technology. Results of this work were used in the FP7 project for integrating strategy with design and manufacturing levels.

1 Introduction The contribution of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to the manufacturing industry has become unquestionable over the 20 years. ICT will be increasingly merged with future manufacturing processes and support the development of efficient business processes. To ensure the sustainable competitiveness of European manufacturing industry, a continuous improvement of the use of R&D expertise as well as of manufacturing and technology resources is required. The proposed analysis will consider technology and business trends as well as politics, environmental, and society needs [1]. The Lisbon Strategy adopted in March 2000 set the European Union the goal of becoming the knowledge economy the most competitive and most economy in the world. Consequently, the EU has adopted plans for Use of ICT in European industrial companies (first ‘‘e-Europe 2002’’ in June 2000, second ‘‘e-Europe 2005’’ in June 2002, and finally the strategy ‘‘i2010’’) [2]. The ActionPlanT project is co-funded by the European Commission under the Private–Public Partnership (PPP) ‘‘Factories of the Future’’ within the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) [3]. ActionPlanT aims to develop a vision on the short, medium, and long term role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the European manufacturing industry [4]. Advanced systems such as Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) or Customer Resource Management (CRM) systems are nowadays unquestionable in the strategic, tactical and operation management of the company
