TAILIEUCHUNG - Ebook Operations strategy (4th edition): Part 2

(BQ) Part 2 book "Operations strategy" has contents: Process technology strategy, improvement strategy, product and service development and organisation, the process of operations strategy – formulation and implementation, the process of operations strategy – monitoring and control. | Chapter Process technology strategy Introduction Technology has always had a profound impact on all operations, and with the emergence of powerful new technologies this impact is becoming even more significant. These new technologies can emerge because of the ‘push’ or ‘supply’ of new knowledge, or the ‘pull’ from the ‘demand’ from market opportunities. Yet, despite a widespread acceptance of its significance, strategic analysis too often treats it as a ‘black box’ – fit only for technical experts. However, all operations need to understand the analytical dimensions for identifying the technical, managerial and ‘operations strategy’ characteristics of technology. This is an essential prerequisite for deciding ‘what’ technological options to explore. Operations managers need to clarify ‘what’ technology options exist, ‘why’ potential investments in process technology investments can give strategic advantage, and explore ‘how’ managers can make such investments work in practice. The risks associated with implementation are particularly important given the number of high-profile failures and claims of waste that seem to go hand-inhand with such investments.
