Joint Development of a Manufacturing Technology: A Longitudinal Case Study within the Manufacturing Industry

Publication Type:

Conference/Workshop Paper

Venue:

22nd International Annual EurOMA Conference


Abstract

In order to compete within the manufacturing industry, there is a need to acquire and develop new manufacturing technologies to differentiate the company from others. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to analyse factors affecting development of a manufacturing technology in a joint development project with an equipment supplier. A longitudinal case study has been conducted at a Swedish manufacturing company and the collaboration between a manufacturing company and an equipment supplier has been studied. The findings reveal that tacit knowledge and good equipment supplier relationship are highly important factors that facilitate development of a manufacturing technology.
