  • Behavior Game Analysis in Production Organization of Agricultural Supply Chain
    2010 International Conference on E-Business and E-Government, 2010
    Co-Authors: Liu Shengchun, Ting Li
    Abstract:

    In Chinese agricultural industry, the fragmented Production mode influence the stability, consistency and effectiveness of supply chain Organization. By adopting Behavioral game theory model, this paper analyzes the behavior of game between farmers and Organizations from agricultural supply chain association during the process of establishing cooperative relationship, the precondition for stabilizing association relationship which is based on profit and “fairness” is given as conclusion.

  • regional creative destruction Production Organization globalization and the economic transformation of the midwest
    Economic Geography, 1996
    Co-Authors: Richard Florida
    Abstract:

    This article examines the role of new forms of Production Organization in the process of regional economic transformation. I argue that there is a geographic or regional element to the transformative forces which Schumpeter identified as gales of creative destruction as new forms of Production Organization transform older regions. I question a central theme of recent geographic theory, that new forms of Production Organization are the province of newly emerging regions, while older manufacturing regions remain trapped in older, outmoded forms. The research explores these issues through the lens of the Industrial Midwest, a region depicted as beset by chronic economic decline and as being locked into outmoded forms of Production Organization. The data are drawn from a survey of Midwest manufacturers and field research consisting of site visits and personal interviews at a sample of manufacturing plants. The main findings of the research indicate that there has been a high rate of adoption and diffusion of new forms of work and Production Organization in the Midwest and that this shift has been accelerated by globalization, particularly by the influx of transplant manufacturers who have transferred new Production systems to the region. The research also suggests that the region's broader economic recovery is to some degree linked to the adoption and diffusion of these new forms of Production Organization. The key findings indicate that new forms of Production Organization have taken root in this older industrial region, contributing to its economic transformation.

  • japanese maquiladoras Production Organization and global commodity chains
    World Development, 1994
    Co-Authors: Martin Kenney, Richard Florida
    Abstract:

    Abstract During the last decade at least 66 Japanese maquiladoras have been established in Mexico employing in excess of 20,000 workers. This paper examines the Organization of Production in these plants and the insertion of these Production activities in the global commodity chains of these firms. Managers at 17 firms were interviewed either in person or by telephone and 10 of the plants were visited. The results indicate that the Production Organization and labor-management relationships resembled that of temporary employees in Japan. Most of the activities undertaken in the maquiladoras are relatively low-skill level, labor-intensive activities. In Tijuana there are now at least 31 Japanese maquiladoras most of which are in the electronics industry and these include a number of Japanese suppliers, thereby creating a proto-industrial complex.

  • beyond mass Production the japanese system and its transfer to the u s
    1993
    Co-Authors: Martin Kenney, Richard Florida
    Abstract:

    During the 1980s and continuing into the 1990s, more than 1,000 Japanese firms established 'transplant' manufacturing operations in the US. Many of these have been in mature industries like steel and automobiles, but many have also been in high technology industries as well. The success of these ventures is the result of the sweeping revolution in the Organization of technology, work, and Production that lies at the heart of the Japanese model of Production. This book explores the rise of the Japanese model and provides a detailed examination of the processes which have brought about its transfer to the US. It presents new and original data on the extent of Japanese investment in both US heavy industry and high technology. It suggests that Japanese capitalism has developed a new world-class standard of Production Organization which is transferable and is in the process of being transferred to other advanced industrial nations.

  • Restructuring in Place: Japanese Investment, Production Organization, and the Geography of Steel
    Economic Geography, 1992
    Co-Authors: Richard Florida, Martin Kenney
    Abstract:

    AbstractJapanese investment has set in motion a restructuring of the U.S. steel industry. This restructuring is occurring on three related geographic scales. At the global scale, Japanese investment in U.S. steel reflects a more general shift in the center of steel Production technology and accumulation from the U.S. and western Europe to Japan. Japanese advances are now diffusing back to the U.S. via Japanese direct investment and Organizational restructuring. At the national level, within the U.S., Japanese investment reinforces a westward shift in the center of steel Production from the traditional Pittsburgh region to Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana. This spatial redirection stems from the high fixed costs of integrated steel Production, the importance of the automobile industry as a user of steel, and the particular requirement of supplying steel to the automotive transplants and their suppliers on a just-in-time basis. At the plant or Organizational level, Japanese direct investment has set in motion a ...

  • The Japanese Transplants: Production Organization and Regional Development
    Journal of The American Planning Association, 1992
    Co-Authors: Martin Kenney, Richard Florida
    Abstract:

    Abstract Japanese direct investment has resulted in a transplant manufacturing complex of major automotive assembly facilities, steel mills and steel coating lines, rubber and tire factories, and more than 250 new automotive suppliers in and around the industrial heartland. Findings from a three-year study of the location patterns of these Japanese-owned and Japanese-U.S. joint ventures indicate that the transplants are replicating in the U.S. the Japanese system of geographically concentrated “just-in-time” end users and suppliers and that industrial incentives have little effect on the location choices of transplant firms. Planners and policymakers can learn from the transplants to develop programs to modernize and Organizationally restructure American firms and industries.

  • The Smart City Production System
    Smart Cities, 2017
    Co-Authors: Gary Graham, Patrick Hennelly, Jag Srai, Roy Meriton
    Abstract:

    This chapter explores manufacturing in the smart city, and presents a framework that integrates distributed manufacturing with smart city technologies (such as big data and the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)). This framework aims to explore the interplay of smart city technology with Production Organization and design. The following are the interplay of smart city technologies with four Production system characteristics: network design, manufacturing, distribution, and service. The chapter builds on the post‐Fordist and Toyota Production System (TPS) Production system paradigms to focus on the development of the smart city Production system. This is identified in the matrix and has been characterized by flexible and low scale Production runs. There are low levels of inventory as the point of Production is located close to consumption points and within city boundaries (local Production).
