Abs- The IDEF modeling methodolgoy of the US Air Force's integrated computer aided manufacturing (ICAM) program is a powerful tool for modeling the functional structure, the data needed to support the functions, and the dynamic behavior of a manufacturing enterprise.
A major deficiency of IDEF is the lack of cohesion between the three views whereby a single consistent description of the system is difficult to obtain, especially when the modeling domain is large and complex.
IDEF does not communicate BP effectively from an organizational perspecive nor for workflow efficiencies among organizations and does not address responsibility and authority.
