This is particularly true in the medical device sector, where there are strict therapeutic, psychological, and normative constraints. This article presents a multi-criteria decision making process called “Define, Prioritize, Measure, and Aggregate” (DPMA). DPMA is designed to help engineering managers in decision making during the development process of new medical devices. The model is based on two sets of criteria linked to business and customer satisfaction. These criteria are weighted using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and group decision making (GDM) process. The performance of a medical device is measured according to each criterion. Furthermore, the final score of GO/NO GO alternatives are calculated with the simple additive weighting (SAW) method. A case study for the development of a new kind of femoral implant is presented to demonstrate the implementation of the DPMA process. This study shows that the application of the DPMA process during the design of a 3D printed femoral prosthesis provided engineering managers the key elements and green light to go ahead with the development of this medical device.","PeriodicalId":54353,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Management Journal","volume":"35 1","pages":"102 - 119"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47327356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing data obtained from the metal production (manufacturing) and fabrication industry in United Arab Emirates, we employ multicriteria decision analysis encompassing the ‘Best-Worst Method’ (BWM) for factor ranking and categorization. The outcome of this exercise being the development of substantial proficiency in risk management that will have a significant impact on the overall success of projects commissioned within the production space. Findings drawn against an integrated ‘Technology–Organization–Environment’ and ‘Four levels of uncertainty’ framework suggests that ‘Automation,’ ‘Cycle time,’ and ‘Feed rate’ (technological factors), ‘Manpower utilization’ and ‘Agility’ (organizational factors), and ‘Occupational health and safety’ (environmental factors), ranked highest in terms of critical risk factors likely to impact upon the outcome of projects. This paper makes a specific contribution to the literature in that our use of an integrated ‘Technology–Organization–Environment’ – ‘Four levels of uncertainty’ framework as a risk intelligence focused typology allows us to focus on proactive as against reactive management of risk. This forms the core element of our theorization of risk knowledge as risk intelligence.","PeriodicalId":54353,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Management Journal","volume":"35 1","pages":"144 - 160"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43183099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If the management reserve exceeds the original contract amount by 20% to 50%, it reveals the imprudence of running the outsourcing project. Based on the company’s policy requirements, an outsourcing project must finish the tender process by following the timeline of every work stage determined by the characteristics and environment of the project. This research studied the factors causing management reserve in an outsourcing project of the case company using the Six Sigma define, measure, analyze, improve, and control (DMAIC) method. The root cause was the lack of defining the specific responsibility in charge of unit, leading to insufficient communication between demand and executive departments as well as between project engineering and procurement departments in the preceding process. The preceding process must have a specific management procedure by redefining each unit’s responsibility to avoid frequent design changes later. In addition, the procurement department estimated the reserve prices by analyzing the supplier’s quotes using quantitative cost analysis. In the ultimate efficiency evaluation, this study verified that the improved procurement cases dramatically reduced circumstances of design change and management reserve and met the case company’s due date.","PeriodicalId":54353,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Management Journal","volume":"35 1","pages":"70 - 83"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47710865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is the first to present the TPMM concept with PBM maturity and ITA maturity, and the first to evaluate ITA maturity based on the 49 processes of PMBOK. After the PBM and ITA maturities of 49 management processes are obtained using an expert evaluation method, the two-dimensional maturity of the knowledge area and enterprise layers can be calculated by statistical method. The comparison of maturities at three layers and two dimensions is helpful for enterprises to find problems in PBM and ITA, and to find the right direction for advancement. It is also helpful for enterprises to take corresponding improvement measures. The integrated framework provides a new perspective on improving the efficiency and capability of project management through positive cycle development between PBM and ITA. The application case sets an example for other enterprises to improve their project management capability and efficiency along a maturity ladder.","PeriodicalId":54353,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Management Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49353493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
