Today’s complex products and their associated development processes require the engineer to consider an increasing variety of influencing factors such as the current design situation or the available information. Though recent enhancements of process management systems show progress with administrative and production processes, the support of highly iterative, flexible and unpredictable product development processes has not been established yet. Hence, the presented research proposes a novel process management system which considers the design situation of an engineer and his/her information needs in particular. Based on a project control circle which describes the proceeding in a development project in general, the design situation and the product models are described by corresponding parameters to define the situation and the most relevant product models for the execution of the task. Finally, the implementation of both aspects is explained by using the developed data schema.
