Manufacturing Process Management - The Concept
Manufacturing Process Management (MPM) is the process of defining and managing the manufacturing processes used to make parts, assemble final products, and perform inspections.
Whereas the focus of many engineering centric processes is on defining "what" the product is, MPM focuses on defining "how" to produce it. More specifically, the MPM process is the business process through which the manufacturing engineer defines the detailed sequences of operations required in production to produce parts from raw material, to assemble the final product and to perform other production related tasks like inspection. During MPM, the manufacturing engineer accesses the digital product definition, considers the available manufacturing capabilities, and designs the mBOMs, process plans, and work instructions required to produce the product. MPM also involves giving early feedback to engineering based on preliminary versions of the manufacturing deliverables, validating and optimizing these deliverables, and releasing information to production systems (ERP/MES).
Manufacturing Process Management - Coursera Course
Enterprises that seek to become proficient in advanced manufacturing must incorporate manufacturing management tools and integrate data throughout the supply chain to be successful. This course will make students aware of what a digitally connected enterprise is, as they learn about the operational complexity of enterprises, business process optimization and the concept of an integrated product-process-value chain. Students will become acquainted with the available tools, technologies and techniques for aggregation and integration of data throughout the manufacturing supply chain and entire product life-cycle. They will receive foundational knowledge to assist in efforts to facilitate design, planning, and production scheduling of goods and services by applying product life cycle data. Main concepts of this course will be delivered through lectures, readings, discussions and various videos. This is the sixth course in the Digital Manufacturing & Design Technology specialization that explores the many facets of manufacturing’s “Fourth Revolution,” aka Industry 4.0, and features a culminating project involving creation of a roadmap to achieve a self-established DMD-related professional goal.

PTC's Manufacturing Process Management Solution, Windchill MPMLink,
In any product life cycle management (PLM) system, the MPM process is the necessary bridge from product design to production execution. As the digital manufacturing part of the PLM process, it is the bridge from product design to production planning, and on to resource and inventory scheduling.
PTC's Manufacturing Process Management Solution, Windchill MPMLink, enables the manufacturing engineer to associatively transform the engineering BOM to the manufacturing BOM, to manage libraries of manufacturing resources and standardized manufacturing capabilities, to define digital definitions of process plans with associative links to the mBOMs and manufacturing resources, and to dynamically generate work instructions for the shop floor.

Production Process Management
by Gary Mintchell, Jan 16, 2014
Michael McClellan has initiated an ongoing conversation about a model he has constructed called, “Manufacturing 3.0: Production Process Management.” This post is from his document, “An Overview of the New Management Paradigm Built on Business Process Management Concepts.” I find the ideas very interesting and mostly agree with.
McClellan says that Production Process Management is:
A less costly method to accomplish manufacturing plant information system exchange across silos without systems integration
Provides easier global visibility to information and your production processes
