Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Element applies capability-architecture-performance (CAP) approach of industrial analysis to the evolution of the automobile industry and the strategies of its leading manufacturing firms between the late 19th century and the early 21st century. It regards a manufacturing site ('genba,' such as factory, development facility, etc.) and a product (and other economic artifacts, such as processes) as the two basic units of analysis. Both an industry and a firm can be seen as a collection of sites, as well as a collection of products. The CAP framework predicts that dynamic fits between the sites' organizational capabilities and the product/process architectures lead to sustainable competitive performance. Such key concepts as flows of value-carrying design information, productive/market/profit performance, design-based comparative advantage, integral/modular architectures, multi-skilling, coordinative capability-building, evolutionary capabilities, industry lifecycle, and architectural evolution are discussed in a systematic and dynamic way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parce qu'elle concerne toujours de nombreux salariés, la chaîne reste le lieu emblématique pour analyser les transformations de l'organisation du travail et des relations professionnelles. Tandis que la plupart des constructeurs automobiles mondiaux ont cherché à introduire le teamwork né des pratiques japonaises, sa mise en œuvre a été profondément influencée par l'histoire des firmes et les conditions nationales. D'où l'émergence d'une pluralité de types de relation salariale que cet ouvrage met en évidence à travers l'étude de 24 ateliers à travers le monde, fruit d'un travail sans équivalent à ce jour d'une équipe internationale de spécialistes du sujet. Quelle est la réalité du teamwork et du travail de groupe ? Quelles compétences utilisées ? Quelle évolution de la division du travail et de la coopération au travail ? Quelle place accordée au syndicat ? Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux chercheurs, aux étudiants, aux enseignants, aux syndicalistes et à tous les praticiens qui souhaitent comprendre les changements à venir dans l'ensemble des secteurs de production de biens et de services, puisque l'industrie automobile sert de matrice aux révolutions organisationnelles depuis un siècle. La dimension comparative internationale les informe à l'heure de la globalisation

Download or read book Globalization and Employment Relations in the Auto Assembly Industry written by Roger Blanpain and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2008-02-25 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important study—based on a three-year empirical research project in seven countries—focuses on employment relations in the auto assembly industry and shows that the influence of globalisation is tempered to varying degrees by institutional employment patterns at the local level. Twenty-one scholars and researchers representing all seven countries analyse the data, clearly describe the differences across both countries and firms, and offer conclusions and recommendations that greatly facilitate our understanding of the globalisation process at the level of human resources in industrial production. For each of the seven countries—two liberal market economies (the United States and Australia), two coordinated market economies (Germany and Sweden), and three Asian market economies (Japan, South Korea, and China)—the book describes five key issues in detail: work organisation; skill formation; remuneration systems; staffing arrangements and employment security; and enterprise governance and employee–management relations. The authors offer in-depth comparative analysis of these central issues in the context of such overriding factors as corporate strategy, local institutional constraints and advantages, competitive pressures among automakers to capture emerging markets, power relations within firms, and the role that agency and interests play in shaping social action.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly every country that produces cars views the automobile industry as strategically important because of its direct economic significance and because it serves as a bellwether for innovation in employment conditions. In this book, industrial relations experts from eleven countries consider the state of the industry worldwide. They are particularly interested in assessing whether the loudly heralded model of lean production initiated by Toyota has become pervasive.The contributors focus on employment practices: the way work is organized, how workers and managers interact, the way worker representatives respond to lean production strategies, and the nature of the adaptation and innovation process itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans un contexte de crise et de mondialisation, la condition nécessaire à la réussite des entreprises est l'innovation. Afin d'en comprendre les ressorts, les blocages et les conditions de succès, ce livre analyse, dans l'industrie automobile, les différentes pratiques de management de l'innovation et les performances qui en résultent. En effet, ce secteur a valeur d'exemplarité, tant l'innovation y est présente. La démarche des auteurs consiste à comparer, de façon systématique, les processus d'innovation des entreprises automobiles. Pour cela, deux types d'approches sont proposés: des études de cas (succès et échecs emblématiques) et une enquête par questionnaire. Cette recherche a été menée entre 2006 et 2011, sur trois continents (Amérique, Europe, Asie), pour une étude de 26 projets.

Download or read book Software Hardware Integration in Automotive Product Development written by John Blyler and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Software-Hardware Integration in Automotive Product Development brings together a must-read set of technical papers on one the most talked-about subjects among industry experts The carefully selected content of this book demonstrates how leading companies, universities, and organizations have developed methodologies, tools, and technologies to integrate, verify, and validate hardware and software systems. The automotive industry is no different, with the future of its product development lying in the timely integration of these chiefly electronic and mechanical systems. The integration activities cross both product type and engineering discipline boundaries to include chip-, embedded board-, and network/vehicle-level systems. Integration, verification, and validation of each of these three domains are examined in depth, attesting to the difficulties of this phase of the automotive hardware and software system life cycle. The current state of the art is to integrate, verify, validate, and test automotive hardware and software with a complement of physical hardware and virtual software prototyping tools. The growth of sophisticated software tools, sometimes combined with hardware-in-the-loop devices, has allowed the automotive industry to meet shrinking time-to-market, decreasing costs, and increasing safety demands. It is also why most of the papers in this book focus on virtual systems, prototypes, and models to emulate and simulate both hardware and software. Further, such tools and techniques are the way that hardware and software systems can be “co-verified” and tested in a concurrent fashion. The goal of this compilation of expert articles is to reveal the similarities and differences between the integration, verification, and validation (IVV) of hardware and software at the chip, board, and network levels. This comparative study will reveal the common IVV thread among the different, but ultimately related, implementations of hardware and software systems. In so doing, it supports the larger systems engineering approach for the vertically integrated automobile—namely, that of model-driven development.
