| Tiivistelmä: | Advanced manufacturing technology is often considered only in the context of the direct benefits it provides to manufacturing operations, that is for example, greater efficiency, lower costs, and more consistent quality. Not so for William Epstein, president of Iva Manufacturing Co, a small U.S. apparel manufacturer. Companies of Mr. Epstein integrate advanced manufacturing technology into virtually every aspect of the business enterprise. Advanced technology not only tempers the design of the manufacturing unit, but also profoundly shapes the business strategy and is heavily exploited for new business development. It even has fundamental bearing on the corporate capital structure of the firm. |
