- Since the dawn of New Public Management (NPM) the healthcare sector has been the target for several concepts imported from the private sector. This study takes its departure in the widely spread management concept Lean. Originally developed in the Japanese auto-industry the concept has diffused globally. During the past decade, interest in Lean has grown significantly in the healthcare sector in Sweden. Lean is used to achieve a process oriented care beyond NPM.The purpose of the study is to explore and investigate Lean in this particular context. We analyze the development of Lean to situate the state of institutionalization. We draw upon the ideas of management concepts as fashions to problematize and contrast the potential legitimacy gains of adaptation in relation to their diffusion and representation. The study covers Lean efforts in the healthcare sector by using a rhetorical text analysis of annual reports in which we track the development of the discourse of Lean.Our contribution is related the observed evolution where reasons to adapting Lean has surpassed a turning point, from legitimacy towards institutionalization where operationalization of Lean thoughts are approaching a state of becoming taken-for-granted.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Cloud manufacturing has emerged as a new manufacturing paradigm, which combines technologies (such as Internet of Things, Cloud computing, semantic Web, virtualisation and service-oriented technologies) with advanced manufacturing models, information and communication technologies. It aims to be networked, intelligent, service-oriented, knowledge-based and energy efficient, and promises a variety of benefits and advantages by providing fast, reliable and secure on-demand services for users. It is envisioned that companies in all sectors of manufacturing will be able to package their resources and know-hows in the Cloud, making them conveniently available for others through pay-as-you-go, which is also timely and economically attractive. Resources, e.g. manufacturing software tools, applications, knowledge and fabrication capabilities, will then be made accessible to presumptive consumers on a worldwide basis. After surveying a vast array of available publications, this paper presents an up-to-date literature review together with future trends and research directions in Cloud manufacturing.
