The method is pertinent to those design changes with significant influence on performance and reliability of the weapon system, on over-all weapon system effectiveness, and on the total cost of the weapon system. Similarities exist between the evaluation of decisions in the area of weapon systems design and decision areas commonly encountered in the nonmilitary business world. The effect of alternative product designs on potential market penetration, production processes and profits, for example, could be described by either analytical techniques or simulated by ``business gaming,'' or both.","PeriodicalId":382847,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1962-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131662470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The technical-man-year cost used in this paper is derived by dividing the total annual cost of each particular R & D organization participating in this study by the number of scientific and technical personnel working in the organization. This index is based on 17 individual research organizations, ranging from the most sophisticated industry and foundation R & D enterprises to relatively small private and Government laboratories and R & D divisions.","PeriodicalId":382847,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"4 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126800400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Correlation analyses were run on relationships between the scores. A factor analysis yielded 15 relatively independent categories, into which the contribution scores were classified. These categories were arranged according to a science-oriented to organizationally-oriented continuum. The study was conducted in one large laboratory at a government basic research center.

The full intent and objectives of the program were discussed with the senior supervisors. The discussion group had no appointed chairman or specified ground rules. The starting point was a discussion of the job of the section toward development of an organization to do that job most effectively. Position descriptions were prepared, followed by development of objectives. After 15 months, the group examined the role of the manager and their own personal philosophies of management. The future course of the program is still under development.","PeriodicalId":382847,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"426 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122921123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This was the frame of reference for some recent attempts to measure organizational health at the U. S. Naval Ordnance Test Station, China Lake, Calif. The organizational Self-Inventory was administered to approximately 500 scientists, engineers, administrators, clerical and crafts personnel in five of the Station's departments. The research instrument used to make the measurements was a simple questionnaire composed of three types of items: incomplete sentences; cartoon incomplete sentences, and semantic scales.","PeriodicalId":382847,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124914953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To study the use of performance rating plans in representative organizations, a questionnaire was sent to 175 organizations through-out the country. Concurrently, a series of meetings was held within the Laboratory with research administrators, supervisors, and scientists; recommendations for further investigation and experimentation resulted. A committee of research personnel was set up to assist in the design of an evaluation program. It reviewed four types of plans: Factor-Type Plan, Narrative Plan by the Supervisor, Personal Review Form, and Coaching Plan. Suggestions of the committee provided the basis for developing a new plan. A method was established whereby the engineer rates himself on a factor-type form before the actual interview with his supervisor. This preview prepares him for the interview knowing by what factors he has been evaluated. Because of this, he is better prepared to discuss the rating with his supervisor. The new plan was designed with two distinct but related sections. The first, Job Performance Appraisal, was to be the evaluation of how well an individual was doing on his present job. Second, was the Academic Development Inventory which was to be a record of the contributions which lead to promotion in rank and the granting of tenure.","PeriodicalId":382847,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127877843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since these supporting skills are not required by any one engineering group 100 per cent of the time, economics dictates that these services be centralized. Thus, a Technical Services Department is born. The supporting skills provided by such an organization may vary, for example, from the analytical ability of highly-specialized Ph.D.s, to the manipulative ability of highly trained tool and die makers. IBM has a particular need for such specialized services because of the number of engineering groups which it has working simultaneously on different projects. In this article, it is not possible to cover the develomment of Technical Services in all the IBM Laboratories. Therefore, the discussion is limited to the IBM General Products Division Development Laboratory at Endicott, N. Y. This is appropriate, as Endicott is typical of other IBM Commercial Laboratories.","PeriodicalId":382847,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"128 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128188210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
