Abstract: A method for management of a production pipeline is disclosed. The method may comprise accessing a data model which comprises a plurality of data objects, including one or more assembly objects, each assembly object representing a part to undergo one or more production events to be performed on a part at a first party facility for providing to a second party facility and one or more production event objects, each production event object representing a particular production event and having a plurality of properties, including an associated start time property and an end time property. The method may also comprise receiving selection of one or more production event objects to be linked to a first assembly object and an indication of values for at least the start time property and end time property of the one or more production event objects and receiving input of one or more alert conditions to be linked to the first assembly object.
