Aggregate Planning in UK Manufacturing Companies
Emerald - - 1987
VicGilgeous
Aggregate planning approaches as presented in the literature are rarely used in practice. The objective of this research is to survey the aggregate planning practice of manufacturing companies in the UK, with the aim of designing more realistic aggregate planning systems. The results gathered provide useful insights into current practice, including the ranking of management decision altern...... hiện toàn bộ
Best manufacturing practices
Emerald - - 2005
BjørgeTimenes Laugen, NuranAcur, HarryBoer, JanFrick
PurposeResearch on best practices suffers from some fundamental problems. The problem addressed in the article is that authors tend to postulate, rather than show, the practices they address to be best – whether these practices do indeed produce best performance is often not investigated.... hiện toàn bộ

The Use of Artificial Intelligence in Process Planning
Emerald - - 1988
Chao‐HsienChu, Hsu‐PinWang
During recent decades, the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) from computer science, psychology and linguistics has created a great impact on the design and implementation of process planning systems. This article provides a review of the state‐of‐the‐art AI‐based automated process planning systems. A generalised framework for expert process planning systems is proposed and prospect...... hiện toàn bộ
COPP: A Decision Support System for Managing Customer Enquiries
Emerald - - 1992
Linda C.Hendry
The management of customer enquiries is a particularly pertinent issue for make‐to‐order companies in which each enquiry concerns a unique order. Such companies must make tenders which are both competitive and realistic in terms of characteristics such as the delivery date and price, if they are to win the order and to secure future orders. Often, the need to ensure that a tender is realis...... hiện toàn bộ
The Phased Release of Batches into a Job Shop
Emerald - Tập 4 Số 4 - Trang 16-27 - 1984
J.Browne, B.J.Davies
Much research has been reported on the possibilities of using various heuristic priority rules to sequence batches through a job shop. The SPT (Shortest Priority Time) heuristic, or modifications to it, has been proved useful in many studies. This paper reports on the results obtained when simulating the work flow through a real machine shop. The simulation model has been used to test the ...... hiện toàn bộ
Operational autonomy explains the value of group work in both lean and reflective production
Emerald - Tập 16 Số 2 - Trang 171-182 - 1996
Roel W.Schuring
Describes and compares two designs of work group: those which are based on the use of standard operating procedures, as found in lean production, and those based on decentralized in‐group solving of problems, as found in reflective production. Uses a Euro‐Japanese example of the former and a Swedish example of the latter. Concludes that both approaches result in an operational process that...... hiện toàn bộ
Activity‐based Costing in Non‐standard Route Manufacturing
Emerald - Tập 12 Số 3 - Trang 38-60 - 1992
LizhangZhuang, GeorgeBurns
Looks at how Activity‐Based Costing (ABC) may be implemented in sectors consisting of Non‐Standard Route Manufacturers (NSRM). Following a brief summary of ABC, introduces the concept of NSRM. Within the context of a selected knitwear company, identifies a three‐stage procedure with attention focused on the first stage. product classification. A three‐division mo...... hiện toàn bộ
Capturing the dynamics of facility allocation
Emerald - - 1996
BartVos, HenkAkkermans
States that determining the configuration of a company’s facilities has become a complex issue in today’s globalizing business environment. Existing allocation models often fail to address developments over time and “soft” issues. Therefore, an existing design method to support decision making on strategic allocation issues was extended with a system dynamics component. This extension allo...... hiện toàn bộ
Developing a conceptual model of lead performance measurement and benchmarking
Emerald - - 2008
RodneyMcAdam, Shirley‐AnnHazlett, KarenAnderson‐Gillespie
PurposeEnvironmental turbulence including rapid changes in technology and markets has resulted in the need for new approaches to performance measurement and benchmarking. There is a need for studies that attempt to measure and benchmark upstream, leading or developmental aspects of organizations. Therefore, the aim of this ...... hiện toàn bộ
