โœฆ Synopsis


This study examines the relationship between market requirements focus, manufacturing characteristics focus, and manufacturing performance. Results from a sample of plants serving the automotive industry support the general argument that market requirements focus and manufacturing characteristics focus have an impact on manufacturing performance, and ลฝ . provide partial support for a mediation model of focus proposed by Bozarth 1993 . The results also show that focused work cells or plants-within-a-plant might not be entirely successful at buffering plants from the negative impact of diverse market requirements. q 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
