A collaborative manufacturing system (500) includes a collaborative control system (501) comprising a computer processor configured to receive a computer aided design (CAD) of an object (550) to be manufactured and to output a manufacturing procedure for manufacturing the object (550). A cloud network in communication with the collaborative control system (501) is configured to store information relating to the manufacturing procedure created by the collaborative control system (501). The system also includes a plurality of mobile agile manufacturing platforms (540-545), each agile manufacturing platform (540-545) in communication with the cloud network, and configured to receive information relating to the manufacture of the object (550) in the form of manufacturing tasks assigned to each of the plurality of mobile agile manufacturing platforms (540-545), and wherein each agile manufacturing platform (540-545) includes a communication module for transmitting state information about the state of the manufacturing task assigned to an corresponding agile manufacturing platform (540-545), which exchange with other or take over autonomously the assigned tasks based on their priority and platform's status. The state information is stored in the cloud network.
