Download or read book Production Research 1993 written by V. Orpana and published by Elsevier Publishing Company. This book was released on 1993 with total page 842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research into industrial production is a varied and far-reaching activity and cannot be said to be the province of any one particular science. Industrial production research is a subject which cannot be covered in any one or even several branches of study, expertise in other fields of science is also needed for this research. The guiding principle on which industrial production is based is to manufacture marketable, quality products, using the factors of production as economically as possible. Only in this way can profitability be assured and future production be guaranteed. Industrial centres have sprung up throughout the world in which the latest technological achievements have been applied with great success. The 322 papers in this volume review current issues of production in an increasingly demanding working environment. Current problems are analysed which can only be solved through worldwide production research which will also further industrial development. The effects of both industrial production and the production of energy on the natural environment are examined in detail. The articles presented in this book emphasise the need for flexibility and concentration of forces in production research, in order to propose and implement approaches and solutions which can be adapted to continuously changing circumstances. It is hoped that the readers of this volume will consider production research as an ongoing and open project which requires multidisciplinary cooperation to cope with the many open questions on future industrial development throughout the world.

Download or read book Supply Chain Simulation written by Francisco Campuzano and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-07-16 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supply Chain Simulation allows readers to practice modeling and simulating a multi-level supply chain. The chapters are a combination of the practical and the theoretical, covering: knowledge of simulation methods and techniques, the conceptual framework of a typical supply chain, the main concepts of system dynamics, and a set of practice problems with their corresponding solutions. The problem set includes illustrations and graphs relating to the simulation results of the Vensim® program, the main code of which is also provided. The examples used are a valuable simulation tool that can be modified and extended according to user requirements. The objective of Supply Chain Simulation is to meet the demands of supply chain simulation or similar courses taught at the postgraduate level. The “what if” analysis recreates different simulation scenarios to improve the decision-making process in terms of supply chain performance, making the book useful not only for postgraduate students, but also for industrial practitioners.
Download or read book Ford Regaining Their Competitive Edge written by Carl G. Smith and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-10 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project contains a look into the manufacturing company of Ford Motor Company. Research was done about how the company runs business, both globally and domestically. In this report, the company's mission, goals, strategies, product and service portfolios, market share and profit performance, technology and employment information are outlined. Key successes and weakness failures are also discussed in detail. Information about Ford's use of computer systems and an information model for the company is also included. The information model displays Ford's Work System, showing which components of the Work Organization, Control System, Industrial Relations and Human Resources Practices Ford implements. The Business Organization, with Ford's Business Strategy and Enterprise Organization is also part of the model. At the end of the report, self-evaluations by team members and references can be found. Ford Motor Company is currently trying to increase its global market share in automobile sales while facing slumping market share numbers in the United States. This report examines the Ford company characteristics and how the company uses information systems in the business climate. To reduce costs and increase knowledge of a region Ford uses small ERP systems that are less expensive and faster to implement than the larger ERP systems. Failure to obtain a larger market share in foreign markets has hurt the company. The proper use of information systems by Ford will increase their ability to maintain a successful business in future years locally and globally.

Download or read book Always On Business written by Nijaz Bajgorić and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern business relies heavily on information technology. This book presents a new “always-on” business model for the digital age, one based on three interrelated components: a business model, an IT capability model, and an always-on information system model. In addition, it develops an implementation framework for the new model by identifying business-critical continuous computing information technologies as implementation drivers. The model proposed in this book reveals the critical role of business continuity management in ensuring business continuity even when operations are unaffected by any disasters. Using empirical survey data, PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling) combined with mediation analysis are used to test the model and hypotheses. The book is chiefly intended for students in Business Administration/Management degree programs and business leaders whose work involves addressing issues such as organizational performance, IT capability, enterprise information systems, IT management, business continuity management, disaster recovery management, risk management, IT auditing, and compliance.
