- This paper analyse the key factors for creating a dynamic ability in the performance measurement system, in order to manage the operations/strategy interface. A case study was conducted at a heavy vehicle manufacturing site with three data collection components: analysis of archival data, direct observations and an interview study. The study details five factors that need to be fulfilled in order to realise dynamic abilities in a PMS: review process, IT system, management, culture and employee involvement. Moreover, in order to realise the factors in practice the PMS design and context need to be considered.

From Metrics to Process : Towards a Dynamic and Flexible Performance Measurement System for Manufacturing Systems
- 2009
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of third swedish production symposium.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Performance measurement systems are challenged by today’s rapidly changing and highly competitive markets. Measures and management of these systems often fail to continuously reflect the dynamic business environment. This purpose of this paper is to discuss how to achieve a dynamic and flexible performance measurement system applicable for manufacturing sites. The analysis is based on a literature review on major performance measurement schemes, as well as a problem identified in industry. The paper introduces an industrial case where the current measurement at Operations is briefly evaluated and put in relation to the findings made in the literature study. The industrial challenges and possibilities are set as one basis for a proposed future structure. Important aspects on unctionalities/abilities for future research as well as development at the case company when choosing indicators and their implementation are discussed.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of this paper is to outline how a large manufacturing organisation handles change in its performance measurement system (PMS) and the challenges associated with it. The empirics presented have been collected through a case study. The findings display that the organisation deploys two processes for handling change, one with the starting point in the business plan and the other within an operational development program. Several challenges are highlighted relating to the IT-system, culture and involvement. The paper concludes that even though the processes are theoretically sound, the scarcity of time and focus in practice derail their purposes.The purpose of this paper is to outline how a large manufacturing organisation handles change in its performance measurement system (PMS) and the challenges associated with it.

Realising dynamic abilities in a measurement system : A participatory case study
- 2011
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- It is generally accepted by academics and practitioners alike that production performancemeasures ought to be derived from the strategy of a company. However, unlike the context that measurement systems operate in, they appear to be static. Hence, companies often fail to continuously reflect the dynamic business environment and their new priorities in their performance measurement systems. In the rapidly changing environment of today the development, implementation and use of adequate performance measurement frameworks are some of the major challenges confronting organisations and are also significant success factors. The purpose of this paper is to present key contributing factors in creating dynamic abilities in a production performance measurement system. The factors are derived by a literature study, a case and by contrasting the case to the literature. The case presented is a participatory study that stretches over 10 months and follows a project leader with the task of re-designing and implementing a support structure for a production performance measurement system. Following the introduction, the paper is divided into three sections: the literature review, the case study presentation and finally a discussion regarding what factors amplify and inhibit the dynamics in the support structure of a performance measurement system. The conclusion derived is that four additional factors have emerged as enablers for a dynamic

Towards Dynamic Performance Measurement Systems : A framework for manufacturing organisations
- 2011

Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Consensus prevails that performance measurement systems should reflect the strategic direction of a company. Strategies are dynamic in nature while existing measurement systems are stable and predictable. The paradox of combining strategies with measurement systems has created problems for companies as the strategic context alters. Even though the literature surrounding the field is vast and dense there is a gap regarding how to keep measurement system up to date and dynamic. With the existing problem in mind, the objective of this research is to develop a framework that will support the realisation of dynamic performance measurement systems in manufacturing organisations. The research in this thesis has adopted a systems approach and is built around four case studies and two literature studies. The case studies have been conducted at manufacturing organisations on three different continents. The first literature study focused on the general literature in the field whilst the second literature study focused on the characteristics of dynamic performance measurement system in particular. The end-result of this research is a framework based on 19 factors systemised under five sub-headings: review process, IT system, management, employees and culture. In excess of the 19 factors, an additional two factors focalising on the realisation of the framework in practice finalises the end-result. As the research is derived from an industrial problem, this thesis provides an insight for academics of the contemporary struggles of manufacturing organisations with their performance measurement systems. Moreover, this framework provides practitioners with a foundation for making their performance measurement systems compatible and suitable for ever-changing content.

Material Efficiency Measurement: Empirical Investigation of Manufacturing Industry
- 2017

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Improving material efficiency contributes to reduce the volume of industrial waste as well as resource consumption. However, less has been published addressing on what to measure for material efficiency in a manufacturing company. This paper presents the current practice of material efficiency performance indicators in a manufacturing context through a bottom-up approach. In addition to literature review, the empirical data was collected via a multiple case study at seven global manufacturing companies located in Sweden. The results show that existing material efficiency indicators are limited and are mainly measured as a cost or quality parameter rather than environment. The limited number of measurements relates to the fact that material efficiency is not considered as a central business in manufacturing companies and is managed by environmental department with limited correlation to operation. Additionally, these measurements do not aim to reduce waste volume or improve homogeneity of generated waste.
