Manufacturing strategy in context: environment, competitive strategy and manufacturing strategy

Journal of Operations Management, 2000
AbstractConsidering manufacturing strategy in its larger strategic context has been thematic in conceptual literature in operations but relatively neglected in empirical studies, thus leaving predominant conceptual models of manufacturing strategy largely untested.

MANUFACTURERS' EXPORT STRATEGIES

International Marketing Review, 1986
In this empirical study, export strategies of 131 California exporting manufacturers were examined. A factor analysis of fifty variables yielded five factors which were analysed subsequently through multiple discriminant analysis. Two of the five factors, strategic planning and export strategies, were found to be meaningful in discriminating between ...

Operationalizing manufacturing strategy

International Journal of Operations & Production Management, 1996
Reports that over the past several years, the concept of manufacturing strategy has been at the forefront of both managerial and academic thought, and that studies in the field lack a cohesive foundation that can guide researchers’ efforts in building a testing theory ‐ the research gap.

Strategies for Manufacturing

Scientific American, 1989
The traditional model of industrial production is highly wasteful and ultimately unsustainable in contemporary society. Without change to a more integrated environmentally sound model of production waste pollution economic development and population growth will bury the earth. While technology industrial advances and economic development have allowed

Integrating manufacturing test strategy with manufacturing production strategy

1997 IEEE Autotestcon Proceedings AUTOTESTCON '97. IEEE Systems Readiness Technology Conference. Systems Readiness Supporting Global Needs and Awareness in the 21st Century, 2002
The foundation of what is known as agile competition is beginning to unfold. Rather than offering the customer a plethora of different options from which to choose, the customer works with the producer to arrive at solutions to the customer's specific problem. Information and services become a significant part of the product sold.

Flexibility Ratios and Manufacturing Strategy

Management Science, 1994
In this exploratory, empirical study of modernizing durable goods plants, it was found that typical measures of flexibility (e.g., number of unique parts and part families) are independent. More importantly, plants and firms with greater strategic manufacturing focus, regardless of specific emphasis (e.g., cost or quality), scheduled fewer part ...
