Abstract

In Chapter 6 we highlighted how industry analysts framed manufacturing’s business model in terms of how to best fit the current and emerging environment. Much work has been done on examining how to increase productivity, improve quality, leverage global supply chains, commercialise technological breakthroughs, improve cycle times and add value through services. Others have begun to highlight the benefits to be gained from increasing exports, investing in design and/or focusing on sustainability both in terms of products, process and recycling or re-use at the end of the product’s life.
