• receiving build instructions describing at least one work process associated with at least one vehicle, the build instructions corresponding to traditional printed build instructions;
• receiving inventory information identifying a plurality of components required to comply with the build instructions, the inventory information corresponding to traditional printed build sheets;
• and
• operating a user interface at an assembly station in a vehicle assembly plant for the at least one vehicle to display a visual representation guiding the at least one work process at the assembly station, the visual representation including the build instructions and the inventory information, wherein the build instructions and the inventory information are displayed so as to be referenced together.

A computing device, comprising:

• one or more processors for controlling operations of the computing device;
• and
• a memory for storing data and program instructions used by the one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:
• receive build instructions describing at least one work process associated with at least one vehicle, the build instructions corresponding to traditional printed build instructions;
• receive inventory information identifying a plurality of components required to comply with the build instructions, the inventory information corresponding to traditional printed build sheets;
• and
• send for display, to a user interface at an assembly station in a vehicle assembly plant for the at least one vehicle, a visual representation guiding the at least one work process at the assembly station, the visual representation including the build instructions and the inventory information, whereby the build instructions and the inventory information are displayed so as to be referenced together.
