One of the rationalization areas is the material supply process. New tasks of material supply are: integration of supply with the operation of the entire system, especially at the product design stage, effective use of material resources, reduction of the level of supply costs from the point of view of production costs. In the conditions of unit and small batch production the materials requirement needs to be carefully planned and optimized due to the use of many different kinds, types and sizes of materials and dynamic changes of demand over time. In this situation there are needed tools enabling the measurement of production costs for particular tasks on the basis of currently realized processes. One of these tools is activity based costing which is a groundwork for decision making process in the material supply area. Basing on activity based costing, a model of materials requirements planning was developed, which considers minimizing the number of different kinds and sizes of materials by using alternative materials and, consequently, lowering production costs.

“…These methods usually make use of traditional cost accounting, and, in case of activity based costing, they are limited to only processing activities, without taking into account other costs, which may be later added in form of surcharges [9]. The problem of cost estimation on the stage of product design occurs when the elements are not definitely designed, or considerably differ from the previously manufactured products, which is characteristic and frequent in case of unit or small lot production [9,11].…”

On the stage of product design there is a problem concerning production cost estimation in the moment when elements are not yet definitely designed. Depending on the amount of the available information, more or less precise cost estimation methods are applied, i.e.: variant methods, generation methods, hybrid methods. The proposed method of cost estimation is based on a formalized description of information related to construction, manufacturing and organizational characteristics concerning the designed element, the automation method of technological processes design using methods of group technology and a model of determining production costs of machine elements based on Activity Based Costing.

“…It seems to have a bright futureit is estimated that precise, high-speed machining will develop in the years to come, especially in the automotive sector and in aviation. Financial aspects related to production cost cutting and continuously rising customer requirements result in creating even more complicated product shapes by designers and constructors (Więcek, 2013). This often causes a decreased element mass, and, consequently, problems during manufacturing (this relates also to tools).…”

The article presents practical knowledge about production process optimisation as a result of implementing a specialized system monitoring the work of machining tools. It features complex results of the conducted research with use of dedicated equipment and software, whose unconventional application may appear to be an effective IT tool for taking operational and strategic decisions in the machining area. This results from the possibility of analysing the obtained data in both current and long-term perspective, and taking decisions on this basis, which significantly conditions the rationality of using this type of solutions.
