  4. 4. SME Performance and Its Relationship to Innovation

    Author : Adli Abouzeedan; Magnus Klofsten; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SME performance; performance evaluation; firm efficiency; SIV model; innovation capital; system capital; open capital; business models; Business and economics; Ekonomi;

    Abstract : Current SME performance models suffer from a number of disadvantages. The models use intensively a business ratio approach, they look at SMEs as a homogenous group, they consider firms to be closed systems, they do not directly incorporate the impact of an enterprise’s innovation activities, and finally they are complex and rely on sophisticated statistical refining methods making them unpractical to use by SME managers.

  5. 5. Methods for improving performance of process planning for CNC machining : an approach based on surveys and analytical models

    Author : Staffan Anderberg; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process planning; CNC machining; metal cutting; performance; process capability; environment; energy; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Process planning as an enabler of competiveness is often overlooked, but being one of the principal function in the product realisation flow it holds a key role by combining both product and production requirements into a production concept with respect to the current manufacturing system. As such the capability of process planning to a large extent dictates production cost, lead times, product quality etc. READ MORE
