Abstract International standards are playing a key role in leading and shaping the smart manufacturing landscape. The integration and consistency among different standards is therefore essential to effectively support industrial automation evolution and to ensure their applicability. This paper focuses on the ISO18828 and ISO22400 standards, related to the production planning process and manufacturing, consequential phases in product lifecycle. In this paper the connections between the information related to production planning process (ISO18828) and the KPI main basic elements in manufacturing operation management (ISO22400) are analysed. The analysis aims at supporting the standards’ users, underlining the aspects that should be taken into account in order to consolidate and improve the considered lifecycle phases.
