information Technology Product recycling an oem recycler collaboration
International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment, 1998Co-Authors: R.s. Denis, S. SkurnacAbstract:Hewlett-Packard's hardware recycling operation has gone through significant changes in the past several years in response to changes in recycling markets and recycling Technology, As recently as three years ago, most electronic scrap could be recycled or be sold into secondary markets and generate positive returns for OEMs and equipment brokers. Even two gears ago, integrated circuit values from old hardware generated enough revenue to offset total recycling costs. Lower values for resale components, coupled with lower precious metal value, the lack of recycling options for mixed plastic streams which do not have inherent long term liabilities associated with them and the cost of disposing of mixed material streams have combined to increase net recycling costs for electronic hardware. Today HP, like most OEMs, struggles to reduce the costs associated with hardware recycling activities while maintaining environmental compliance. One of the ways Hewlett-Packard Company has met the need to assure environmental compliance while controlling the cost of disposing of low value scrap is to create a strategic alliance with Noranda Metallurgy. The HP-Noranda alliance brings together the unique strengths and perspectives of two key players in the IT recycling value chain in order to maximize efficiencies and environmental assurance while reducing short-term cost and long-term financial exposure.

Information Technology Product recycling. An OEM/recycler collaboration

Process oriented software quality assurance - an experience report in process improvement - OEM perspective [automotive applications]
Design Automation and Test in Europe, 2005Co-Authors: T. Illgen, S. OrtmannAbstract:This paper proposes that a well defined software construction process, and standards for key components, is a successful way for future software engineering. One of the main topics of building complex and safety critical software systems is the establishing of constructing quality as key knowledge for automotive engineers. It suggests that a high Technology Product can only be cost effectively produced by standardisation, effective engineering and management processes and considering the human factor. The software construction of complex, safety critical systems can no longer be a job for individual artists, it has to be the job of trained and motivated engineers, even in a classical industry such as automotive.

Competing through Services: Service Migration of Information Technology Product Vendors
2010 43rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2010Co-Authors: Shu Han, T. Ravichandran, Jason KuruzovichAbstract:The provision of services has become an increasingly important component of the economy of industrialized economies and the revenue stream for many traditional Product companies. This is especially true for companies offering information Technology (IT) Products, as service revenues are often several times the initial purchase or licensing fees, making the development of a successful services business both a strategic area for growth and a way to diversify revenue streams. This paper examines factors that influence the extent to which IT Product companies are able to utilize services as a source of revenue. Drawing literatures from evolutionary economics, service diversification, and organizational decline, we identify architecture knowledge of IT systems, information asymmetry of service offering, and previous performance as key drivers of the percentage of revenues associated with services.

A New Roadmapping Technique for Creatively Managing the Emerging Smart Grid
Creativity and Innovation Management, 2013Co-Authors: Kelly R. CowanAbstract:The ‘Smart grid’ has been described as the ‘Energy Internet’, combining energy Technology with information Technology. The promise of the smart grid is to upgrade ageing energy infrastructure through the use of emerging Technology. The resultant smart grid would improve efficiency, the ability to use alternative energy sources, responsiveness and security of the system. The need for creating a smarter grid is clear. Yet the traditional tool used by policy and other decision makers to rapidly advance Technology Product platforms, the Technology roadmap, is proving ineffective due to the unique regulatory and market structure challenges of the smart grid. If the smart grid is important and its development constricted, then there is cause for concern. Today, most smart grid development teams are focusing their roadmapping efforts at the local and national levels. Yet regional roadmapping efforts can create higher quality and better integrated outcomes. A more advanced roadmapping technique is required for the effective and efficient management of the emerging smart grid Technology Product platform. Here, a case study approach utilizing the Pacific Northwest smart grid regional planning effort is utilized to generate an improved Technology roadmapping technique, one that addresses the needs of emerging multi‐root Technology‐based Products like the smart grid. This roadmapping technique is designed to more effectively include the market structure and regulatory challenges inherent in the smart grid. The new roadmapping model integrates multiple Technology, business and policy concerns.
