    From lean supply and relationships to SME assessment : executive summary

    This Executive Summary is a summary of the author's Engineering Doctorate research and the application of that research. The Executive Summary has sufficient detail and description to be read independently from the other pieces of research, called submissions, to which this refers. In outline, the three areas of research arose from the three research programmes with which the author was closely involved. The first area of research involved the identification of critical success factors within customer-supplier relationships in the automotive industry. An extensive literature review was performed using Lamming's Lean Supply Model (1993) as a starting point. A number of gaps in the body of knowledge were identified and were grouped into five areas for the purpose of further research. One area was subsequently addressed as part of the second area of research. The second area of research was aimed at assisting small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in their use of the internet to improve their performance. A means of assessing the effectiveness of the operations of the SMEs was a critical part of this programme. A new tool called the SME (Operations) Assessment Tool, (SOAT) was developed because it focused on key business processes as the basis for assessment instead of the more traditional financial analysis. Having developed SOAT within the specific research programme, it was applied to three SMEs as a test of the methodology as a more general tool. Feedback from the three SMEs and those within the research programme showed that SOAT was straightforward to apply. The third area of research allowed the author to develop his interest in customer supplier relationships, as this was seen to be the main focus of concern within companies within the programme. A Memorandum of Understanding and Intent (MUI) was developed and justified, but was in the process of being applied by other researchers

    Resolving the productivity paradox of digitalised production

    Full text link
    [EN] Although Industry 4.0 and other initiatives predict widespread adoption of digitalised technology on the factory floor, few companies use new digitalised production technology holistically in their ecosystems; in practical implementation, companies often decide against digitalisation for financial reasons. This is due to a paradox (akin to the so called “productivity paradox”) caused by the complexity of value creation and value delivery within digitalised production. This article analyses and synthesises cross-disciplinary research using a grounded theory model, thus offering valuable insights for businesses considering investing in digitalised production. A qualitative model and an associated toolbox (complete with tools for practical application by business leaders and decision-makers) are presented to address organisational uncertainty and leadership disconnect that often contribute to the paradoxical gap between digital strategy and operational implementation.Dold, L.; Speck, C.

    Metodología para implementación de CPPS en SME ́s

    Get PDF
    Actualmente las Small and Medium sized enterprises (SME ́s) de manufactura en Colombia se han visto afectadas por el surgimiento de la industria 4.0 (I4.0), lo cual ha llevado a que busquen la manera de adaptarse a las necesidades del siglo XXI. Por lo tanto, es de suma importancia plantearse cómo las SME ́s puedan implementar los avances tecnológicos que vienen junto al nuevo desarrollo industrial dentro de su sistema de producción. A nivel educacional y en el ámbito laboral existen casos de éxito en la aplicación de Cyber Physical Production System (CPPS), pero sigue existiendo una brecha entre CPPS y las SME ́s en Colombia. Así mismo, no existe un estudio que vincule los conceptos de Low Cost Automation (LCA), CPPS, SME ́s, y Human Machine Interface (HMI). Debido a lo mencionado anteriormente existe la oportunidad de evaluar una metodología que le permita a las SME ́s en Colombia incorporar las tecnologías enmarcadas en la I4.0 dentro del sistema de producción. Para poder elaborar la metodología se desarrollará una fase diagnóstica y por otro lado una de emulación del proceso de manufactura. Este procedimiento se llevará a cabo dentro de la empresa caso de estudio seleccionada, para así poder analizar, mediante el uso de indicadores de productividad, la adopción de las tecnologías. Con el desarrollo de la metodología propuesta, se espera identificar los requisitos para poder implementar un CPPS que responda a las necesidades del proceso de manufactura de la empresa, buscando tener un impacto en su productividad.Ingeniero (a) IndustrialPregrad
