Tiivistelmä: | This case study examines the evolution of R&D knowledge management (KM) at Japan's business equipment maker Fuji Xerox, from the sashimi system, a Japanese origin of concurrent engineering, to its successor zen-in system. It is found that Fuji Xerox has chosen the "hybridization strategy" mixing human-based and IT-based knowledge-sharing techniques. It is also argued that concurrent engineering provides not only efficiency benefits but also positive effects on group and organizational creativity. Finally, a conceptual framework of "how concurrent engineering works" is presented. |
