The accelerating pace of change in our society requires organisations to efficiently manage day-to-day operations while simultaneously innovating and developing new concepts for the future, all within an environment of rapidly evolving circumstances. Specifically, organisations must quickly be able to handle the work practices that are critical to organisational development, and this thesis focuses on the handling of these practices. Critical work practices (CWPs) are here defined as operational management practices that are quickly initiated or adjusted – either scaled up or down – in response to new developmental needs or emerging acute situations. Commonly, there are limitations to CW...
The realization of a successful product requires collaboration between developers and producers, taking account of stakeholder value, reinforcing the contribution of industry to society and enhancing the wellbeing of workers while respecting planetary boundaries.

Focusing the impact of automation on the human, this symposium aims to arrange a solution-oriented meeting between international scientists, application specialists, and industrial experts. The topics include: Human-centred and participatory design; Adaptive and dynamic automation; levels of automation; automation in working life; and others.
This book highlights the effects of an increasing use of information technology, IT, in manufacturing. Mainly, focus is on the changes in organisation, in working procedures and in the demands on the capabilities of the personnel, both on the shop floor and the engineering and management levels. It disseminates information from the research and development carried out under ESPRIT's Integration in Manufacturing domain as well as from other activities in similar domains in industry and academia. A particular focus is on giving an overview and resume of work undertaken in the Third and Fourth Research Framework Programmes of ESPRIT.
Sammanfattning: Integrerad riskhantering i nordisk industri.
Production development is about improving existing production systems and developing new ones. The production system should be developed in integration with the product, as a part of the overall product realization process, and not in sequence after the product has already been designed. Production Development: Design and Operation of Production Systems takes a holistic viewpoint on the production system and its design process during the whole system life cycle. A working procedure demonstrating how to design and realize the production system is presented, together with a number of related production development aspects. Production Development: Design and Operation of Production Systems is illustrated with a large number of figures and industrial examples. The book can be used as a reference for teachers and students, or as a manual for professionals within the field of production.
Bei der Durchführung von Produktionsanläufen treten in der Praxis immer wieder Störungen auf, die sich negativ auf die erfolgsentscheidenden Faktoren Zeit, Qualität und Kosten auswirken. Diese Störungen werden häufig erst bei deren Eintritt erkannt und die Maßnahmen zur Behebung beruhen hauptsächlich auf den Erfahrungen der Mitarbeiter und sind nicht strukturiert vorbereitet. Es mangelt an einer durchgängigen Systematik zum Umgang mit Störungen im Produktionsanlauf. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, eine methodische Vorgehensweise für den gezielten Umgang mit Störungen im Produktionsanlauf zu entwickeln. Es wird der innovative Ansatz verfolgt, dass Unternehmen beim Umgang mit ...
