A production control system for a matrix cell production plant (1) having an arrangement of matrix cells (2), each of which is configured to execute production processes, having logistics means which are configured to execute logistics processes and having a superordinate control logic (4) which is configured to control the matrix cells (2) and the logistics means. Proprietary data models of the matrix cells (2) and logistics means are linked via at least one ontology unit, thereby providing a continuous data flow between the matrix cells (2) and the logistics means. In dependence on the data in the data stream, production processes are automatically definable and executable in the individual matrix cells (2). Logistics processes are automatically definable and executable in individual logistics means.
