Manufacturing is a strategic weapon; it can provide that critical competitive edge.
The whys of it have been established in many of the other lessons under study (Also
see OP/PM02, OP/PM05 and CC/ BF 06). In this lesson, the author, Prof. T S Nagabhushana
of IIMB, delves deeper into the Whys of it and crystallises the various forms of
the How of it. The ‘Focused Factory’, the ‘Top-down Process’, ‘Stages of Development’,
the Content Model of Hayes and Wheelright, and the Propositions of Schroader and
Lahr, all converge to make this lesson a real learning experience. The author demonstrates
that theories in this area are not just theories in the realm of academics. They
are theories that can be seen in live action, on shop fl oors and in the hearts
and minds of many an unsung Indian fi rm.
