  7. Abstract:
  8. Rail equipment suppliers in the manufacturing realms of activity are obliged to comply by global standards in order to provide the requirement needs of the rail industries and the needs of customers. In this way, the standards would enhance the quality, safety and reliability of the railway industry. International Railway Industry Standard (IRIS), as an exclusively railway standard that is based on or a more refined of the ISO 9001 Quality Management Standard Policies, which adds in fact further layers to the ISO 9001 structure. The IRIS is the result of long term process in development of an international quality management standard for railway fleet. The objective of this thesis is to make a design analysis and correction of processes in the MAPNA Locomotive Manufacturing Plant in accordance with the IRIS. Initially, the general requirements of ISO 9001 standard, the necessary fundamentals and differences with IRIS are examined. Then, the processes are identified and accordingly the procedural scheme and prospectus are defined. Considering the demands in the rail industry, two important processes namely: Project Management and Knowledge Management, are designed and run in order to improve it the company and in line with the requirements of these two processes, some characterized mandatory executive methods are also designed. In knowledge oriented industries such as the railways, such useful and powerful tools as knowledge management utilities are inevitable. Management of knowledge concepts by traditional methods does not suffice the demands of the present day industry. On the other hand, due to the structure of project oriented manufacturing, the company is obliged to make precise control of the project so that the project is controlled within the foreseen time and costs.
