In this paper, we propose a decentralised production planning system which is designed to release all production planning through a distributed manufacturing network. This system emphasises the requirements of make-to-order and is able to produce satisfactory delivery dates, super quality and competitively priced products. The system architecture is designed and implemented using distributed object-oriented and powerful component technology, satisfying all the function requirements of information systems in an environment of distributed manufacturing. The application result shows its effectiveness in reducing customer order tardiness and improving the devices utilisation rate of the key processes.
