Changeability is an increasingly important feature in today’s production environment. Influences of external and internal change drivers lead to fluctuating pressure for change in production systems, for which various types of change are available as countermeasures. In this paper, fluctuations are analyzed for their frequency content and linked to types of change, characterized by frequency and amplitude of change that can be implemented. This approach is expected to contribute to improved decision making regarding the implementation of change. Industrial data are used to illustrate the frequency content of fluctuation in demand in production systems and relationships with types of change.
