| Stratagem – a methodology and computer-based tool for strategic regeneration (2009) | |||||||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||||||
| This paper describes the research and development, supported by the UK Department of Trade and Industry, DTI, of a novel approach to the implementation of manufacturing best practice. The approach utilises a computer-based tool to support a methodology which guides companies through the strategic regeneration process. The methodology recognises the importance of involving company staff fully in the improvement process, and, in this way, improves ownership and commitment to the solutions generated. The methodology described has been used successfully by a number of small and medium-sized firms to achieve radical improvements in their performance. This has been achieved by applying acknowledged best practices, improving the performance of the company whilst at the same time developing and training the management team in new manufacturing tools, techniques and technologies. | |||||||||||||||
