Lean service is more important as it is a concrete mixture of tools and practices which when applied according to the situations faced that would certainly improvise the same ensuring the generation of financial and economic outcomes. Due to its evolution, lean is being implemented in service industries for attaining a competitive edge as well as high customers' satisfaction. There is a current necessity...
To stay ahead of open competition, labour-intensive small and medium-sized enterprises, such as Leather, Textile and Garment, resorted to choose the best alternate production system that were popular in other sectors. This paper discusses a simulation as a decision making tool to choose the best alternate production system for leather small and medium-sized enterprises (LSMEs). The simulation models...
the demand response(DR) is becoming the focus of the smart grid construction, as an important measure of DR, Time-of-use(TOU) power price are used more extensively. It is necessary to play to the role of TOU to guide the power consumption according to the demand response, improve the efficiency of electric power resource allocation and the social benefit of power. In this paper, the problem about...
In a progressively turbulent and competitive business environment, numerous organizations adopt the total quality management (TQM) approach to endeavor for business excellence; in this sense total quality management (TQM) and excellence frameworks play vital roles in organizational successes and sustainable business. Thousands of firms beyond the globe use self-assessment system in a regular manner...
This paper describes the methodology of applying Business Process Reengineering and Total Quality Management principles to a model a telecommunications service and infrastructure provider company. By applying these principles to existing processes this paper aims to provide redefined and reengineered processes for consideration of implementation into the company's business model. The processes that...
This paper analyzes effects of power saving of mobile station (MS) to Base Station with finite buffer in IEEE802.16e class type I network. IEEE802.16e standard accept MS to switch to sleep-mode to minimize power when MS processing load is reduced. However, when packets destined to MS appear into BS buffer, they should be stored until end of MS sleep window. Although the sleep-mode designed in effort...
One of the most significant challenges currently facing modern companies is the establishment of an assessment and diagnosis method to promote and support Total Quality Management (TQM), which is the mainstay of a company's quality management strategy. Thus, for this study, the authors created TQM promotion diagnosis Model “TQM-PDM” to aid the strategic implementation of TQM. This model has been taken...
Developing countries are challenged with intense market competition and are yet to make significant stride in their business performance. Although Total Quality Management (TQM) and New Product Development (NPD) can play major role in this case, empirical research done in justifying TQM's applicability for NPD is limited. Hence, this research is dedicated to study the applicability, methodology, and...
In this paper, Business Process Reengineering is briefly analyzed in theoretical level. An effective methodology as well as Administration and Information Technology matters is described, while the differences to Total Quality Management are highlighted. Moreover, the phases of the BPMS methodology as well as reengineering techniques are explained. It is also presented how BPMS methodology is applied...
The purpose of this paper is to quantify quality culture model in a construction company using the structural equation modeling (SEM) technique. Quality culture is a multi-dimensional concept and cannot be directly measured but is measurable through connection with other variables. Five major variables of quality culture are quality plans and measurement, top management commitment, people management,...
The efficient management of industrial systems can be only in a system whose activities are synchronized thus enabling a good traceability. This is why the development of a reliable Information System is a primordial objective of industrial systems. To this effect, we elaborated in this paper a methodology of designing automated systems using participative methods on the one hand and we present the...
Although management studies have identified a wide variety of factors that influence knowledge management, little analysis has been completed showing the relative influence of these factors on performance. This paper develops an integrated model to illustrate and better understand how these factors affect knowledge management performance. The research offers insights into the determinants of knowledge...
