Open Innovation: A New Paradigm for Understanding Industrial Innovation
Open innovation: researching a new paradigm, 2006Co-Authors: Henry William Chesbrough, Wim Vanhaverbeke, Joel WestAbstract:The book Open Innovation describes an innovation paradigm shift from a closed to an open model. Based on close observation of a small number of companies, the book documents a number of practices associated with this new paradigm. That book was written for managers of industrial innovation processes, and the work has received significant attention among managers. To the extent that such managers are able to assess the utility of new approaches, Open Innovation has achieved a certain degree of face validity within at least a small portion of high technology industries. Open Innovation has taken on greater saliency in light of the debate about globalization and the potential for the R&D Function itself to become outsourced, as the Manufacturing Function was 20 years earlier.

Impact of TPM implementation on Indian Manufacturing industry
International Journal of Productivity and Performance Management, 2014Co-Authors: Jitendra Kumar, Vimlesh Kumar Soni, Geeta AgnihotriAbstract:Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to identify the relationship between TPM programme and Manufacturing performance in Indian Manufacturing industries; to discern the benefits obtained from TPM implementation; to identify common indicators; and to explore the common expectation while TPM implementation. Design/methodology/approach – In this paper acceptability and implementation of TPM programme in Indian Manufacturing industry have been elaborated to ascertain the tangible and intangible benefits accrued as a result of successful TPM implementation. A semi-structured questionnaire survey approach has been adopted for the justification of TPM implementation and benefits gained by it in Indian context. Survey has covered mainly automobile and machinery sector throughout India. A total of 57 filled responses have been received and analysed to find the impact of TPM programme on Manufacturing productivity. Findings – The paper establishes the impact of successful TPM implementation on Manufacturing performance. TPM initiatives have shown marked improvement in the equipment availability, performance and produced quality and have also brought appreciable improvement in other Manufacturing Functions in the organizations. It has been observed that TPM deployment contributes to improve the Manufacturing productivity, quality, delivery, safety, morale, ensuring the cost effectiveness of the Manufacturing Function within the organization. The paper also indicates that overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) can be used for performance improvement without TPM implementation. Research limitations/implications – Because of the chosen research approach, the research results may lack generalizability. Therefore, researchers are encouraged to test the proposed propositions further. Practical implications – This paper highlights the contribution of TPM programme and OEE measure to ensure enhanced Manufacturing productivity. The benefits gained by TPM implementation in selected Indian Manufacturing industries have been highlighted, that could be genuine source of motivation to other Manufacturing organizations to go in for TPM programme. Originality/value – The present study encompasses systematic identification of factors affecting overall organizational performance and the common expectations of the firms through implementation of TPM programme. TPM initiatives provide regular OEE measure, performance monitoring and improvement, and developing guidelines for achieving enhanced Manufacturing productivity.
