Based on the research of the order parameter principle and the slave principle, this paper regards the management pattern system of manufacturing firms as a complex system which is composed by the mission subsystem, the technology subsystem, the human resources subsystem and the organization subsystem. Its implementation rules conform to the characteristics of the self-organization systems. The paper...

Based on resourced-based theory, this study tries to examine how IT capabilities affect firm performance. In contrast to past studies that have assumed that IT capabilities have direct effects on firm performance, this study argues that a firmpsilas performance can be explained by how effective the firm is in using IT to support organizational decision-making. A conceptual model is developed to explain...
By the effect of globalization, products, services, capital, technology, and people began to circulate more freely in the world. As a conclusion, in order to achieve and gain an advantage against competitors, manufacturing firms had to adopt themselves to changing conditions and evaluate their critical performance criteria. In this study, the aim is to determine general performance criteria and their...
In the globalize world the there has been a tough competition among the manufacturing as well service sector. The manufacturing firms are striving to survive in the competitive world. However the firms have to struggle with growing trade deficits and outsourced operations, while strong market competitors have emerged, using superior manufacturing practices and continuous process improvement. The small...
A typical manufacture firm can be seen as a multi-echelon inventory system. This paper focuses on a multi-echelon inventory system which consists of firm warehouse and multiple distribution spots. And a model has been set forward in order to illuminate the inventory control strategies in a manufacture firm, distribution center and the retail warehouses according to certain fulfillment rate of customer...
The consistent rise in fame of TQM since last two decades has established a profound impact on business strategies today. Businesses are depending on continuous improvement (CI) and total quality management (TQM) as a means by which they can maintain a competitive edge. Spanish and Pakistani industries both have been engaged in continuous improvement practices with different implementation strategies...
In this paper we report the findings of a two-year project that examined how technology and engineering consultancies (TECs) manage knowledge and innovation to create and capture value. We studied eight multi-national consultancies at two levels. First, we examined the policies, processes and practices used at the corporate level to promote innovation, and capture the value created by it. Secondly,...
This paper handles two questions: Do external technology sources have determined technology capability accumulation in Chinese firms? If so, which sources are more important, foreign technologies or Chinese institutions and customers? To deal with these questions, according to our research on some Chinese firms, we select some types of technological change and the stage of firms' technology capabilities...
In the past ten years, a steady stream of research has focused on the relationship between market orientation and performance. Many empirical studies have shown that market orientation is positively related to performance. However, the question whether the positive market orientation-performance relationship is robust across different contexts is not clear. Prior empirical research has been mixed...
As the most foundation of market orientation, which is the cornerstone of modern marketing thought, customer orientation is the focus in theory and practice. This study reexamined the direct relationship between customer orientation and business performance from a cultural perspective, and showed the moderating effects of manufacturing versus service firms non-nation-own versus nation-own firms and...
Global manufacturing network (GMN) is a new manufacturing system, which provides great opportunities for local firms in developing countries to acquire knowledge and upgrade through collaborations in GMN. This paper hypothesizes that local firm's potential absorptive capacity has a positive impact on its knowledge acquisition in GMN, and the association between them is moderated by network embeddedness...
At present, global production network (GPN) has become one of the new figures of the globalization tide. It opens an opportunity window for developing countries to learn from GPN. The paper proposes a 2-stage model describing the factors of knowledge transfer from global production flagships (GPF) to its participants in developing countries. In the first stage, there are two factors affecting the...

This paper focused on a buyer-supplier coordination model to improve deliveries in a manufacturing supply chain. The proposed model based on the integrated total relevant costs of both buyer and supplier and determines optimal order quantity, the number of deliveries/setups, and quantity of deliveries over a finite planning horizon in a relatively simple JIT (single buyer single supplier) with multiple...

This study presents an empirical study to examine the performance and the determinants of technology outsourcing service in manufacturing firms in the Northeastern China. Using data collected in 94 large or medium-sized firms, we find that there existed a deep gap between the providers and the users of technology outsourcing services. The analysis also says that three factors which influence the outsourcing...
Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories have developed a next-generation agent-based economic 'laboratory' (N-ABLE) for analyzing the economic factors, feedbacks, and downstream effects of infrastructure interdependencies. N-ABLE is a simulation environment in which hundreds of thousands of individual economic actors simulate real-world manufacturing firms, government agencies, and households...
