contents The benefits of adopting artificial intelligence (AI) in manufacturing are undeniable. However, operationalizing AI beyond the prototype, especially when involved with cyber-physical production systems (CPPS), remains a significant challenge due to the technical system complexity, a lack of implementation standards and fragmented organizational processes. To this end, this paper proposes a new process model for the lifecycle management of AI assets designed to address challenges in manufacturing and facilitate effective operationalization throughout the entire AI lifecycle. The process model, as a theoretical contribution, builds on machine learning operations (MLOps) principles and refines three aspects to address the domain-specific requirements from the CPPS context. As a result, the proposed process model aims to support organizations in practice to systematically develop, deploy and manage AI assets across their full lifecycle while aligning with CPPS-specific constraints and regulatory demands.
