Abstract: | This article examines the successes and failures of intrafirm manufacturing technology transfers where a technology was either replicated at or completely relocated to another facility. In addition, the study investigates the impact various factors have upon the economics of such transfers. These factors include: distance between facilities, complexity of technology, communication and training, organizational experience with prior transfers, financial commitment to the transferred technology, and other resource costs. |
