Engineering Changes (ECs) are a fact of life for companies in the Engineer-To-Order (ETO) production environment. Various Change Management (ECM) strategies, practices and tools exist, but no explicit distinction has been made regarding ECM different environments. Using multiple case study method, this article investigates how ETO manage ECs characteristics influence ECM. A generic framework was developed used to map cases. The showed that use similar handling ECs, while either not by or...
Engineering changes (ECs) in companies the engineer-to-order (ETO) production environment are practically unavoidable. It is important for ETO to accommodate ECs throughout project duration, effectively and efficiently managing them order decrease their potential detrimental consequences. A lot of research exists on engineering change management (ECM) general, but our study reveals a need further investigation ECM sector. This theoretical has two main contributions: (i) analysis ECM,...
Engineering changes (ECs) are unavoidable in the engineer-to-order (ETO) environment. ECs improve products and bring additional profit to ETO companies if effectively negotiated implemented. Despite abundant relevant literature on EC management, still report cost overruns owing ECs. Here, a multiple case study conducted Norwegian shipbuilding group was used investigate factors affecting implementation performance complex environments. The were examined by cross-case analysis of six occurring...
Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate how Toyota Kata can be effectively applied in the engineer-to-order (ETO) manufacturing within construction industry. objective identify critical success factors (CSFs) for implementation environment and develop a continuous improvement (CI) method – based on adapted ETO Design/methodology/approach An action research (AR) approach was applied, which includes participatory form inquiry learning from both intended unintended outcomes, while...
Manufacturing companies rely on advanced manufacturing technologies (AMT) in order to increase their competitive position global markets. Successful implementation of AMT depends greatly justification tools. The availability a large amount tools with varying complexity makes it difficult for managers choose the most appropriate ones. This study investigates application various different levels integration. results are presented framework selection that could be used by managers. research...
