| production management systems an integrated perspective: Production Management Systems Jimmie Browne, John Harhen, James Shivnan, 1996 In recent years manufacturing has come to be regarded as the new competitive weapon in the marketplace. To compete successfully in today's competitive environment, organizations must achieve excellence in their manufacturing operations. The adoption of Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) is seen as a key strategy for achieving that excellence and at the heart of CIM's success is the design and use of an effective Production Management System (PMS). The new edition of this book continues to offer a balanced introduction to the three major production management sytems - Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRPII), Just in Time (JIT), and Optimized Production Technology (OPT) - from the perspective of recent developments in CIM. It has also been updated to take account of a number of new developments in the industry. Production Management Systems will be suitable for students in Mechanical, Production, and Manufacturing Systems Engineering and for MBA students studying Production and Operations Management. It will also be invaluable to engineers and managers in manufacturing industry who wish to understand the fundamentals of CIM and PMS. |
| production management systems an integrated perspective: Advances in Production Management Systems Jan Olhager, Fredrik Persson, 2007-12-24 The competitive environment is becoming increasingly more complex and intense. In order to cope, business decisions related to various areas tend to become more interrelated. Firms need to couple their operations strategies to the marketing strategies to best support the competition of their products in the marketplace. The perspectives on production management systems are getting more strategic. A more integrated approach is thus called for, bringing together the various perspectives on production management systems and operations strategy. This relationship is important in any type of operation, perhaps more so in supply chains, production networks and global operations. This book brings together the latest thinking by leading experts, analysts, academics, researchers, and industrial practitioners from around the world who have worked extensively in the area of production management systems and strategies. In the individual chapters of this book, authors put forward their perspectives, approaches, and tools for use in developing and integrating systems and strategies in production management. |
| production management systems an integrated perspective: Integrated Management Systems Thomas H. Lee, Shoji Shiba, Robert Chapman Wood, 1999-11-02 Based on a profoundly important six-year study by the Center for the Quality of Management (CQM), Integrated Management Systems shows how successful organizations accomplish something unbelievably powerful: Creating their own particular ways of executing the scientific method. The authors worked with the cooperation of some of America's largest companies - Teradyne, Hewlett-Packard, Eastman Chemical, Ritz-Carlton -- and of non-profit organizations including top hospitals and the U.S. Navy. They were surprised to find how radically successful systems differed from one organization to the next. Yet the core of each was universal: Each organization had designed a system that gathered data about the organization's particular problems, developed theories, tested the theories, and finally documented and shared the results throughout the organization. Each successful organization's methods were unique much as the methods of each successful discipline within the sciences are unique. But less successful organizations had nothing comparable. And the processes through which the leaders in these organizations had gotten them on the right path had a great deal in common. |
| production management systems an integrated perspective: Information and Management Systems for Product Customization Thorsten Blecker, Gerhard Friedrich, Bernd Kaluza, Nizar Abdelkafi, Gerold Kreutler, 2005-12-28 In today's competitive environment, manufacturing and service companies are intensifying their customization processes. Customization means companies must meet the challenge of providing individualized products and services, without introducing high costs. Therefore, companies must address both customization and cost factors to gain a competitive advantage. While product customization is the manufacturing of products according to individual customer needs, it does not involve any focus on the cost perspective. Information and Management Systems for Product Customization will concentrate on both product customization and costs' efficiency, which is termed as mass customization. Moreover, mass customization with its multi-dimensions is the new business paradigm challenging today's manufacturing companies. |

| production management systems an integrated perspective: Advances in Production Management Systems Norio Okino, Hiroyuki Tamura, Susumu Fujii, 2013-06-29 This volume includes 41 revised papers selected from 125 papers presented at the th 6 IFIP Technical Committee 5/Working Group 5.7 International Conference on Advances in Production Management Systems - APMS'96 -held at Kyoto, Japan, 4-6 November 1996. The task of selecting papers was accomplished by the IPC members voting. The selected papers were reviewed by IPC members who attended the conference. Based on the comments of reviewers, each paper was revised and rewritten in the format of this book. Therefore, the quality of each paper was raised very much. The papers selected in this volume were classified into invited articles and six themes taking into account the perspectives and future challenges in production management systems. Invited articles provide the overview of the present and future trend in the manufacturing world. Six themes were Next Generation Manufacturing Systems and Production Management, Benchmarking, Integration in Manufacturing and Decentralized Production Management, Strategic Aspects, Production Planning, and Production Scheduling. Each theme covers important area of present and future production management reflecting the recent trend in manufacturing toward globalization, agility in variety production, human centered manufacturing, environment consciousness, and so on. We hope that this volume will emerge a lot of new ideas to reach the goal of IFIP WG5.7 Computer Aided Production Management and to bridge the gap between research and industrial practice in production management systems. |
| production management systems an integrated perspective: Integrated Product and Process Design and Development Edward B. Magrab, 1997-07-23 The Integrated Product and Process Design and Development (IP2D2) method is quickly becoming the new standard for the rapid creation of competitively priced, high-quality products. IP2D2 indicates, in the broadest sense, the overlapping, interacting, and iterative nature of all of the aspects of the product realization process. The method is a continuous process whereby a product's cost, performance and features, value, and time-to-market lead to a company's increased profitability and market share. This new text/reference reflects the sweeping changes this approach has brought to traditional engineering design courses and to industry. Carefully organized, with sections on each major stage of the approach, Integrated Product and Process Design and Development: The Product Realization Process is the first complete treatment of this new direction in engineering. The book is designed to help you cultivate an attitude toward design that encourages creativity and innovation, while considering the equally important considerations of customer requirements and satisfaction, quality, reliability, manufacturing methods and material selection, assembly, cost, the environment, and scheduling. Extensively class tested in senior- and graduate-level engineering design courses at the University of Maryland, the book gives equal time to conceptual and practical aspects. As each concept is introduced and explained, two book-long examples provide you with a realistic sense of how a product's creation progresses through its various stages. Numerous checklists and other practical guidelines help you learn to apply the IP2D2 method to your own work. Students and newly graduated engineers will appreciate the modern perspective that more nearly reflects what they will encounter in practice than what is obtainable in traditional texts. For more experienced practicing engineers, this is the new information they need to keep up with recent rapid changes and stay marketable today and in the future. |

| production management systems an integrated perspective: Advances in Production Management Systems E. Eloranta, 2012-12-02 This book is divided into four sections: invited papers, principles, systems and techniques. The invited papers form an extensive overview of the state-of-the-art of production management. The themes range from the everlasting hunt for better productivity to the implications of CIM architectures (particularly CIM-OSA) for production management. The other three sections of the book look at the various problems affecting production management. One of the characteristics of modern production management is the need for better principles, systems and techniques for interorganizational production management. Another topic of crucial relevance is the necessity to master not only repetitive manufacturing but also one-of-a-kind product manufacturing. From the managerial point of view, the forecast-based make-to-stock principles have proven insufficient, with market forces demanding fast and reliable deliveries of customer-oriented products. The goals of production management have been re-evaluated as a result. |

| production management systems an integrated perspective: Group Technology and Cellular Manufacturing Nallan C. Suresh, John M. Kay, 2012-12-06 Group Technology and Cellular Manufacturing (GT/CM) have been widely-researched areas in the past 15 years and much progress has been made in all branches of GT/CM. Resulting from this research activity has been a proliferation of techniques for part-machine grouping, engineering data bases, expert system-based design methods for identifying part families, new analytical and simulation tools for evaluating performance of cells, new types of cell incorporating robotics and flexible automation, team-based approaches for organizing the work force and much more; however, the field lacks a careful compilation of this research and its outcomes. The editors of this book have commissioned leading researchers and implementers to prepare specific treatments of topics for their special areas of expertise in this broad-based philosophy of manufacturing. The editors have sought to be global both in coverage of topic matters and contributors. Group Technology and Cellular Manufacturing addresses the needs and interests of three groups of individuals in the manufacturing field: academic researchers, industry practitioners, and students. (1) The book provides an up-to-date perspective, incorporating the advances made in GT/CM during the past 15 years. As a natural extension to this research, it synthesizes the latest industry practices and outcomes to guide research to greater real-world relevance. (2) The book makes clear the foundations of GT/CM from the core elements of new developments which are aimed at reducing developmental and manufacturing lead times, costs, and at improving business quality and performance. (3) Finally, the book can be used as a textbook for graduate students in engineering and management for studying the field of Group Technology and Cellular Manufacturing. |

| production management systems an integrated perspective: Transdisciplinary Engineering for Resilience: Responding to System Disruptions L. Newnes, S. Lattanzio, B.R. Moser, 2021-11-17 No one discipline or person can encompass all the knowledge necessary to solve complex, ill-defined problems, or problems for which a solution is not immediately obvious. The concept of Concurrent Engineering (CE) – interdisciplinary, but with an engineering focus – was developed to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the Product Creation Process (PCP) by conducting different phases of a product’s life concurrently. Transdisciplinary Engineering has transcended CE, emphasizing the crucial importance of interdisciplinary openness and collaboration. This book presents the proceedings of the 28th ISTE International Conference on Transdisciplinary Engineering (TE2021). Held online from 5 – 9 July 2021 and entitled ‘Transdisciplinary Engineering for Resilience: Responding to System Disruptions’, this is the second conference in the series held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The annual TE conference constitutes an important forum for international scientific exchange on transdisciplinary engineering research, advances, and applications, and is attended by researchers, industry experts and students, as well as government representatives. The book contains 58 peer-reviewed papers, selected from more than 80 submissions and ranging from the theoretical and conceptual to strongly pragmatic and addressing industrial best practice. The papers are grouped under 6 headings covering theory; education and training; PD methods and digital TE; industry and society; product systems; and individuals and teams. Providing an overview of the latest research results and knowledge of product creation processes and related methodologies, the book will be of interest to all researchers, design practitioners, and educators working in the field of Transdisciplinary Engineering. |
| production management systems an integrated perspective: Advances in Production Management Systems: New Challenges, New Approaches Bruno Vallespir, Thècle Alix, 2010-10-15 The present economic and social environment has given rise to new situations within which companies must operate. As a first example, the globalization of the economy and the need for performance has led companies to outsource and then to operate inside networks of enterprises such as supply chains or virtual enterprises. A second instance is related to environmental issues. The statement about the impact of ind- trial activities on the environment has led companies to revise processes, to save - ergy, to optimize transportation.... A last example relates to knowledge. Knowledge is considered today to be one of the main assets of a company. How to capitalize, to manage, to reuse it for the benefit of the company is an important current issue. The three examples above have no direct links. However, each of them constitutes a challenge that companies have to face today.

| production management systems an integrated perspective: Just in Time Factory José Luís Quesado Pinto, João Carlos O. Matias, Carina Pimentel, Susana Garrido Azevedo, Kannan Govindan, 2018-06-26 This book explains the implementation of just in time (JIT) production in an industrial context, while also highlighting the application of various, vital lean production tools. Shifting the trade-off between productivity and quality, the book discusses the preparation stages needed before implementing a JIT system. After an introduction to lean manufacturing and JIT, it introduces readers to the fundamentals and practice of Kaizen, paying special attention to lean manufacturing tools. The book demonstrates how to use the 5S approach (with the stages of Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu and Shitsuke), Standardized Work, Single Minute Exchange of Die (SMED) and the Kanban system. In brief, the book provides an understanding of the processes associated with the application of these tools and highlights the benefits attained by companies that have implemented JIT systems. Throughout the book, a real-world case study is used to deepen readers’ understanding of how lean manufacturing tools can be implemented. The book is ideally suited for executive courses in industrial engineering and management, but can also be used for upper undergraduate and graduate courses at universities. |
| production management systems an integrated perspective: The Enterprise Resource Planning Decade , 2004-01-01 The Enterprise Resource Planning Decade: Lessons Learned and Issues for the Future presents a collection of chapters written by various experts that share a interest in the ERP movement. This collection will generate much interest and contribute to the development of Enterprise-wide systems that provide true support to organizations and the development of methodologies that are less disruptive of organizational day-to-day business than is the case today. When ERP projects stop being the make or break ventures they can be and we stop getting these negative reports about failed implementation, the target will have been met and the ERP market will be less of a jungle than it is today. |
