Product Cycles for Sweden's Export of Machinery goodsNömtak, Fredrika January 2005 (has links)
This thesis analyzes the product cycles of five different product groups within the Swedish machinery export during the time period 1964-2003. The result is that even though Sweden is a preferable region to launch new products and adopt new technologies, according to the product cycle models, the production is approaching a decreasing regional specialisation.

Strategy in thin industries : essays in the social organization of industryLampel, Joseph January 1990 (has links)
This dissertation is a study of strategy in thin industries, a class of industries whose members include the aircraft industry, jet engines, heavy electrical equipment, and diesel locomotives. These industries have a number of common features which inter-relate to produce a unique configuration. Foremost among the attributes that make up this configuration is the sparsity and magnitude of transactions on which the industry must subsist. The decrease in the number of transactions, and the increase in their size, results in a "thin" industry. The sparsity and size of transactions combine to produce complex, unstable, and highly interconnected environments. These environmental conditions motivate firms to develop external linkages with other organizations. The successful management of external linkages will frequently depend on knowledge and experience obtained in previous relationships. Many of the problems created by external linkages can only be resolved once they are formed. At the same time, the knowledge required to resolve these problems calls for previous experience. / The dissertation is divided into two parts. In the first three chapters we explore thin industries as a type and as an environment. In the remaining three chapters we look at the ramifications of interorganizational learning on the management of external linkages. In the concluding chapter we discuss the implications of thin industries to the study and practice of strategic management. Three issues in particular are singled out: the decline of organizational autonomy, the limits of competition, and new directions for theory building. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

A cost study comparing imported liquid pumps against locally manufactured pumpsParbhoo, Meeshal 29 May 2014 (has links)
M.Ing. (Engineering Management) / The purpose of this dissertation was to compare the local manufacturing of liquid pumps in South Africa against the importation of pumps manufactured on the international markets as well as also investigate the capacity limitations of the local pump manufacturers; the technologies available on overseas markets (in terms of electric, solar and wind-powered liquid pumps) and comparing the technologies to those available in South Africa. Five of the leading pump manufacturers were researched in this dissertation namely: KSB; Grundfos; Howden Pumps; Sulzer Pumps Africa and Warman Pumps. South African pump manufacturers are importing most of their pumps from international markets with the primary reason being to meet demands. By comparison, South African pump manufacturers are finding it difficult to produce pumps with equivalent or lower costs than the pumps which are produced on the international markets. Pump manufacturers on international markets offer greater cost savings for South African pump manufacturers which ultimately results in financial savings and a higher yield in profits. Many international pump manufacturers use advanced technology which makes the production costs of pump components as much as twenty percent (20%) less as compared to the South African pump industry. The importation of pumps is a method used to increase the local supply of pumps as the cost of the pump, including import costs, are not as costly as actually manufacturing the pumps in South Africa. While South African pump manufacturers manufacture pumps of relatively high energy consumption and monetary costs; they also produce standard conventional pumps which are required to supply the local demand. Local pump manufacturers were approached to find out exactly how they cope with these stringent requirements by the South African markets, yet still achieve the profits in the industry to remain afloat. Various pump forms were researched specifically relating to the pumps used on the South African markets with regards to their production costs, advantages and disadvantages (wind and solar pump technologies). Standard conventional pumps are preferred on local markets by as much as fifteen percent (15%) with newer technologies (solar and wind powered pumps) being preferred on the international markets. South Africa continues to demand standard conventional pumps (electric-driven pump) although demands for newer technology is on the increase. The international market’s production lines are mature and well established which results in a lower cost of production which leads to these pumps being of more demand as compared to newer pumps which are currently the preference. Local pump manufacturers can satisfy the demand and benefit from the lower importation cost of standard conventional pumps. The preliminary results suggest that the importing of pumps from international markets aid local manufacturers in keeping up with the demand and accquiring sufficient profits. Modern technologies such as solar and wind power is a growing maket in South Africa and is becoming increasingly common. The research approach used in this study involved targeting five of the local pump manufacturers in South Africa. Each manufacturer was asked a series of questions relating to the research questions in order to draw up conclusions regarding the problem statement and hypothesis. Findings from the conducted surveys were compared to the literature which is currently published. Findings show that local pump manufacturers are dependent on imports in order to satisfy the demand for standard conventional pumps rather than manufacturing their own and the use of newer technologies are increasing in the local pump industry.

A mathematical programming based model and algorithm for a two stage production processKodialam, Muralidharan S. January 1987 (has links)
The research conducted in this thesis is concerned with the study of a two-stage production process existing at the Standard Register's (previously Burroughs Corporation) Paper Products Division plant in Rocky Mount, VA. The objective is to develop a mathematical programming based model and algorithm to allocate and sequence work orders in order to improve the plant's productivity and reduce the labor and material costs. The proposed algorithm is based on Lagrangian Relaxation and Benders' decomposition techniques, which exploit the inherent generalized assignment and travelling salesman problem substructures in the model. The algorithm is computationally intensive and generates (near) optimal solutions with a reasonable amount of effort. Heuristic algorithmic procedures for the generation of good solutions for large-sized problems is also proposed. / M.S.

台灣機械業赴俄羅斯之經營策略 / The business strategies of Taiwan's machinery industry to the Russia market王蓁蒂, Wang, Chen Ti Unknown Date (has links)
台灣出口至俄羅斯的商品,機械類商品為前三大項目之一。本研究試以策略三構面分析,台灣機械產業進入俄羅斯市場的經營策略。另外,採用訪談法的方式,訪問有俄國經商經驗之台灣機械廠商,探析廠商拓展俄國市場之經營情形與發展策略。本文之研究目的有兩點:其一,藉由策略三構面,分析台灣機械產業經營俄羅斯市場的策略;其二,實地訪問台灣廠商,探悉其於俄國市場經營的實際策略。選擇1992至2010年,對俄羅斯市場有往來經驗且生產H.S. Code 84的台灣機械廠商為研究範疇。
研究結果顯示,現階段台灣機械業於俄國,主要以代理商的方式接洽,藉由台灣製造的品牌形象以及研發技術生產水準,在當地市場具有競爭優勢,台俄雙方以互信為基礎,建立良好合作關係。根據訪談調查,實際上,台灣機械廠商對俄國市場的拓商大多非主動接洽,是由俄國廠商尋找買主,與台灣方面合作。另外,受到自身的資源影響,以及本身對俄羅斯市場的熟悉度,會影響廠商在當地的經營發展策略,在不熟悉市場的情況下,廠商多採保守策略,以觀望的態度經營市場。
關鍵字:經營策略、機械產業、俄羅斯市場 / Russia inherits the industrial structure of former Soviet Union. Soviet Union devoted to develop military industry but ignored machinery industries for household use. In order to fulfill domestic demand, Russia imported lots of machineries from Germany, China, Italy and Taiwan and so on. As a result, machinery goods are the top three of total exported goods which Taiwan exported to Russia for the long time.
According to the background above, this study attempts to research the business strategies of Taiwan machinery industry to the Russian market by strategic management. The method of study is interviewing Taiwanese machinery firms which trading with Russia for analyzing their strategy used to the Russian Market. The study period is from 1992 to 2010, and participants are Taiwanese machinery firms who produced H.S. Code 84, and traded with Russia.
Currently, most of Taiwanese machinery firms choose to use agent as their entry model, selling machinery and make conservative decision to the Russian Market by agent. Due to Russia is an emerging market; Taiwanese machinery firms are not familiar with Russian in the scope of economy, politics, social culture and language. In Russia, Taiwanese machinery industry has core resources like price is reasonable than Europe countries, quality is better than China; they will be very competitive in the Russian market. Thus, in order to keep each other good business connection for a long time, Taiwanese machinery firms should build up honest and friendly relationship with Russian agents and clients aggressively.
