High flexibility and strategic adaptability are two of the major challenges for manufacturing companies, who have to survive in a turbulent environment. They have to recognize the need for change and innovation on all company levels at an early stage in order to be in the position to implement necessary changes of production structures in a timely manner. In order to make necessary investments in a timely manner, producing companies have to adjust direct and indirect object, structures and processes of the system of performance according to the wishes of customers. Early planning calls for a detailed understanding of the existing processes, structures of resources and the experiences which led to their development. An analysis of the past developments is the necessary foundation for a long term planning of future plant developments. In this paper, a method is proposed for a systematic analysis of past developments of the production structures that consider the specific needs of a plant. The method is the foundation for strategic planning of manufacturing structures and provides the architecture to consider future changes of markets, products and technologies within forecasts and scenarios.
