  • Advanced Planning Systems for Supply Chain Design
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Proceedings of the APMS 2011 Conference. - 9788276444612
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    •   The supply chain design defines the operating basis of a supply chain and thereby naturally affects the strategic and financial performance of a company. Yet, companies often tend to neglect to include supply chain design in their strategic planning processes, partly due to the fact that there has been a lack of decision support system for these crucial decisions. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to describe how advanced planning systems (APS), as a standard commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) decision support system, can be used to design and configure the most efficient supply chain structure. To illustrate this, the paper includes two case studies that have used APS to analyse and re-configure their respective supply chains. The cases show many similarities, but also differences in terms of modelling techniques and project management, impacting the results and usefulness of employing a standard APS for supply chain design.

  • Energy services in Swedish industrial firms : A multidisciplinary analysis of an emerging market
  • 2011
  • Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The European commission highlight the energy service market as an important means to improve energy efficiency. Both the Energy service directive and the new suggested Energy Efficiency Directive urge member states to facilitate market development for energy services. The industrial sector is estimated to have large energy efficiency potential. The aim of this multidisciplinary report is to investigate the state of the Swedish energy service market 2011, both from the supply side and from the industrial demand side in order to contribute with knowledge to the discussion of energy services as a way to improve industrial energy efficiency. Economic market theory and Socio-technical theory (the theory of economization presented by Caliskan and Callon) is used to analyse different aspects of the emerging market. The results show that the market for industrial energy services in Sweden is more extensive than previous reports have assessed. Our study describes how energy service collaborations can be complex and how calculations and measurements of expected energy savings lead to controversies and power imbalances.

  • Competitiveness development of Chinese manufacturing enterprises in global context for crisis management
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Management and Enterprise Development. - : InderScience Publishers. - 1468-4330 .- 1741-8127. ; 9:1, s. 87-115
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This paper connects previous research in global competitiveness analysis, taking the impact of global financial crisis into account, to evaluate how manufacturing companies are able to manage crisis by adjusting their manufacturing strategy and transformational leadership together with technology level to improve operational competitiveness performance. It develops a theoretical approach of integrating the core factors which influence the operational competitiveness performance, i.e. manufacturing strategy, and transformational leadership with technology level, into conceptual analytical models to evaluate overall competitiveness. The empirical studies are focused to case companies in the most dynamic market - China, especially large- and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises, and compare their operational performances in global context. The overall competitiveness of multiple cases are studied using the proposed analytical models to conclude the experience of crisis management, which can become a model for crisis management studies of companies globally as well as foreign companies in China.

  • Leveraging inventors' creativity
  • 2011
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • While creativity is often understood as the generation of valuable novelty, we extend that view into a framework based on well-known and established models from the creativity literature. In addition to generation of novelty which forms our frameworks first dimension, we add selection of novelty, and type of creative contribution.  Based on interviews with inventors and managers in three large, patent-intensive firms, representing completely different industries, we show how the framework can be employed in order to better understand in what ways different practices exploit and/or support the inventors’ creative abilities. By relating the practices not to creativity in general but to components of creativity (c.f Amabile 1997) the paper enriches the discussion of how inventors’ can be leveraged in technology-based firms.

  • Taking the inventive step : The role of the patent department in new product development
  • 2011
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Drawing on an interview-based case study of R&D specialists in two patent intensive firms, we suggest that patent engineers are an important resource for R&D specialists’ work throughout the inventive process. In addition to the role prior literature indicates the patent department to have for supplying R&D with information needed from and about patents to plan R&D work, the findings suggest that patent engineers contribute to the actual development work whereby R&D specialists turn ideas into inventions, and inventions into patents. In virtue of their patent expertise and their technological competence, patent engineers can help R&D specialists to shape and refine their ideas into patentable inventions by appraising potential obstacles, suggesting promising lines of approach to a determined problem, or at times even by assisting with the technological solution per se. We suggest that such contributions of the patent department are particularly important in mature industries where demands for patentable inventions to protect new products are in constant conflict with that many of the knowledge domains in which firms compete are already heavily patented. The results further indicate an increasing need for firms to integrate not only the functionally specialized departments of R&D, marketing and manufacturing, as is often indicated in new product development literatures, but also a need to integrate R&D with the patent department. Indeed, in mature industries at least, the responsibilities for R&D and patenting may be intimately related, making it difficult to analyze the two separately.

  • Ingår i: International Manufacturing Networks. - San Sebastian : Eusko Jaurlaritzaren. - 9788445731819 ; , s. 67-94
  • Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • This paper seeks to extend existing manufacturing system concepts and develop new structured knowledge about international manufacturing networks by analysing the networks, classifying the configurations and identifying the capabilities. The design and operation of international manufacturing networks is an increasingly important issue for transnational corporations faced with rapid changes in global market opportunity, competition and new managerial mechanisms. Four international manufacturing networks in mechanical and process industries are analysed and a number of conclusions drawn: first, a novel configuration map is proposed; second, key strategic capability parameters are identified; third, networking trends and their implications for configuration are discussed. Finally, the paper explores strengths and weaknesses of the particular methodology adopted in this research.

  • Production planning in process industries
  • 2011
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Purpose of this paperThe purpose is to map the production planning process in process industries and analyze how it is related to their specific planning conditions and available literature. Further on the research aim at detecting similarities and differences in production planning at tactical level.Design/methodology/approachThe research methodology has an embedded multi-case design with focus on planning processes involving several entities within the companies. Information sources are documentation and interviews.FindingsProcess industries with different structures and conditions plan production differently. For instance a difference has been found between how material dominated companies plan compared to capacity dominated ones.Research limitations/implicationsFocus in this research has been on production planning at tactical level and therefore the strategic and operational level has mainly been left out of the study.What is original/value of paperThe research gives insights in production planning processes for process industries and presents ideas on why the different production planning processes are designed as they are according some specific conditions.

  • Effects from implementing advanced planning & scheduling systems for supply chain planning
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Proceedings of the 2011 EurOMA conference.
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The purpose is to analyze the effects from Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) systems for supply chain planning, both in terms of experienced benefits and problems, and the impact of the planning context and implementation approach. The research is based on a multiple case study of five manufacturing firms. It is concluded that the APS implementation focus and APS use impact three effect types differently if applying a process or system focus and more positively if applying an APS lead, compared to lag, approach. It also shows that the organisation, individuals, technology impact the effects, no matter APS implementation focus.

  • Maintenance management in process industries:mapping current practices
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: Proceedings of the 17th EurOMA conference, 2010.
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The overall purpose of this research is to map the maintenance management in three companies in the process industry sector and to analyse whether these companies apply a holistic perspective on their maintenance management. We have mapped our cases using the framework developed by Crespo Márquez et al. (2009) and our results show that even though maintenance is of utmost importance in the process industry, few companies have a strategic and holistic perspective on maintenance management.
