This paper introduces an interface between manufacturing strategy analysis (MSA) and manufacturing system design (MSD). MSA methods are not accurate enough to assess the manufacturing design choices. MSD requires functional-oriented scopes, and not only strategic initiatives resulting from MSA. That is why MSA and MSD must be interfaced. The proposed interface consists in the Model of Operational Manufacturing System, the evolution class framework, the model of problem and the problem handling procedure using these models. They point out the proposed detailed evolution classes (domains which have to be improved) adapted to a specific manufacturing system. Finally, the proposal is illustrated within an industrial case study, which underlines its efficiency.
