Hi All
I have been a silent member for more than a year now. This is my first post.
Is there an official document used to prepare and/or calculate manufacturing or production capacities, specifically for automative suppliers?
Examples will be appreciated
Regards

I can't think of any specific document, if one even exists.
You may want to try an advanced search on google to see if anything pops up.
A key bit of information that is necessary is an accurate build time of the product/s. There are other pieces of info that are needed if you want to determine your work cell/assembly line manning, takt time, etc.
You may want to try the APICS or SME websites to see if you can find something. At the very least you should try the APICS bookstore.
Determining one's manufacturing capacity really shouldn't be affected by the industry as the principles would remain the same.
