The twin technologies of computing and communication, and the need for management problem-solving expertise have made it necessary to have a virtual enabler for effective decision making in enterprise processes. This paper brings out value-added aspects of multimedia technology in decision making and describes the Multimedia Architecture for Decision Processes (MADP), which can be used at the strategic, tactical and operational levels of enterprises. The study was applied to the financial analysis of mergers and acquisition decisions, and to equipment diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":138196,"journal":{"name":"IEMC 96 Proceedings.

The objective is to identify the most elements that lead to documented results of the investigation. It was found that these elements are: initiation of the research idea; execution of the research idea; services of the research idea; data analysis; and writeup. These steps of the research process are identified and discussed in the light of their importance for the production of a contribution measure. The difficult problem of giving credit to participants in the investigation is then addressed. A linear mathematical function is adopted to allow the quantification of individual contribution in every step of the investigation. We then defined a function called the degree of involvement and used a limit of this function that may be used to judge issues like publication rights, patents rights and the like. The paper presents an example for the calculation of this function.","PeriodicalId":138196,"journal":{"name":"IEMC 96 Proceedings. International Conference on Engineering and Technology Management.

Two related, but different questionnaires were used, one addressed to the CEO, the other to the CTO. The research examines the following questions. (1) if new technology development is one of the key sustainable competitive advantages, is it best acquired internally, or externally, and who plays the major role in those decisions. A number of firms are using CTOs to provide leadership in this decision process. (2) Do firms make use of a Science Advisory Committee (SAC) to assist in this most difficult task and is there a pattern of use of a SAC that differs depending on the educational background of the CEO?

The authors propose fuzzy multiobjective linear programming which considers intangible benefits in AMTs and expands the constraints by adding tolerances. The transition from vagueness to quantification is performed by applying fuzzy set theory. The approach also considers vagueness of the objective functions by using membership functions. The main advantage of fuzzy LP, compared to the unfuzzy problem formulation, is the fact that the decision maker is not forced into a precise formulation because of mathematical reasons. A case example is given in the paper.","PeriodicalId":138196,"journal":{"name":"IEMC 96 Proceedings. International Conference on Engineering and Technology Management.

Best manufacturing practices...a uniquely successful approach to teaming and partnering 最佳制造实践…一个独特的成功的团队和伙伴关系的方法

Purcell","doi":"10.1109/IEMC.1996.547864","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/IEMC.1996.547864","url":null,"abstract":"There is nothing quite like Best Manufacturing Practices (BMP) in either government or the private sector. BMP is a cooperative effort involving government, industry and universities. For most of its ten-year existence, BMP operated as a \"virtual\" entity without formal recognition or significant financial support yet was able to effectively harness increasingly greater amounts of people, resources and funding to achieve remarkable success helping to improve the competitiveness of US Industry. This paper highlights how BMP developed and implemented successful strategies for teaming and partnering with government agencies, industries, trade associations and academic institutions. The BMP approach is unique in leveraging resources within government to add value and maximize results. It provides a model for how public and private organizations can work together effectively. The BMP approach produced successful strategies for attracting people and resources from a broad range of agencies, institutions and private sector organizations. These are documented along with techniques for leveraging customer focus and delivering products that add value and meet needs. Traps and pitfalls in teaming and partnering and how to avoid them are also addressed.","PeriodicalId":138196,"journal":{"name":"IEMC 96 Proceedings.

Managing with technology: a predictive information system for remote supplier development 技术管理:用于远程供应商开发的预测信息系统

{"title":"Managing with technology: a predictive information system for remote supplier development","authors":"W. Taylor, W. Doherty","doi":"10.1109/IEMC.1996.547898","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/IEMC.1996.547898","url":null,"abstract":"In technology-based enterprises, the achievement of networked and virtual organisations relies heavily upon the capability to develop suppliers and sub-contractors. While in many cases, suppliers are compliant and will embrace most initiatives in order to maintain contractual relationships, they often do so at additional cost to themselves. Traditional interventions such as second or third party audit, or other criteria-based assessments tend not to achieve genuine and sustained supplier improvement. Moreover, the more recent self-assessment movement is difficult to resource in many supplier organisations because of their (small) size and their remoteness of location. To this end, the paper details the use of software systems to act in quasi-consultancy mode, by predicting the likely organizational outcome of current management practices. Since the target users are senior managers in these small organisations, it is intended that the reflective style of the system will stimulate genuine learning. The paper discusses the process of developing the predictive system and the validation of predictions to-date in around 100 companies, predominantly employing less than 500 people. The current predictive accuracy of the system is over 80%. If companies were to heed these predictions there would be a marked change in their management practices and in the resultant competitiveness of the majority.","PeriodicalId":138196,"journal":{"name":"IEMC 96 Proceedings.

The research question addressed in this paper is, \"given that information and communication technologies impact the use and communication of information, and given that effective strategy formulation depends upon the manner in which information is shared and communicated, then does an organization's use of information and communication technologies have an impact on its process of strategy formulation, and if so how?\" Comparative case studies were utilized to address this question. A series of R&D-dependent, high growth companies were reviewed to determine their detailed strategic decision making processes and their processes were compared among firms utilizing networked desk-top computers to either a high or low degree. The findings from the case study are that networked desk-top computers were utilized in a noteworthy manner in strategy formulation and implementation process in only one of the same base companies. In other sample base firms, networked desk-top computers were not utilized to a noteworthy degree in the strategic management process.","PeriodicalId":138196,"journal":{"name":"IEMC 96 Proceedings.
