Step 6. Name Groups: PRT Planning

Ideas for naming conventions include:

  • Base names on the physical location of the group of regions.
  • Base names on the functionality of the group of regions, e.g. Oven Group or Assembly Group.
  • Limit names to a specific number of characters, for example 10 characters maximum.

Example

The naming convention in this example:

  • Limits names to 10 characters each and
  • Bases them on the location of the group.
1 All names are consistent with the chosen naming convention.
2 Each group is named according to the location in the factory
3 Each name has a maximum of 10 characters, which is in line with the example's naming convention.
