Abstract
The recording of information regarding machine function, performance, and failure, which is generated during the machine development, commissioning, and service is vital to an organization. Previous research has shown this information is often poorly recorded or even missed during these critical stages. The work presented in this article offers a solution based on the core product model, offering the potential to be revisit and retrieved the information throughout the product life cycle and into any next iteration of the design. An industrial case study presenting the operation of the approach is presented.Keywords
