2. 11. Adapting manufacturing strategy to industrial after-sales service operations

   Author : Pontus Johansson; Jan Olhager; Sergio Cavalieri; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Manufacturing strategy; Operations strategy; Service operations; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi;

   Abstract : This dissertation is initiated from an increased awareness within industry of the importance of services in general and of after-sales services in particular. The scope of this research is to analyse how the specific characteristics of after-sales services affect a company’s manufacturing strategy, which in effect should become an operations strategy not only considering the manufacturing of goods.
