Under Ford system, corporations sought to maximize the economies of scale by raising the production efficiency. It aims to lower the production cost by increasing the quantity of output. But in the era of market flux and uncertainty, however, such strategies can no longer be sustained. Replacing the structures of Ford system, Toyota was able to accelerate the pace of process innovation and product innovation. Related to this innovation is JIT, new model development, modularization. The firm's reliance on flexible production technology provides opportunities to expand her production basis to foreign countries successfully. The main objective of this paper is to explore the contribution of process innovation to profit-capital ratio. The model is estimated using a time-series data of 18 years from 1990 to 2007 of auto production industry in korea. An Implication of this estimation shows that process innovation explains a significant portion of profit-capital ratio.

최근 글로벌 경쟁이 치열해 지면서 가격경쟁력이 뒷받침되지 않으면 신흥 시장에 대한 대응이 어려워져 가격경쟁력의 중요성이 부각되고 있으며, 구조적인 비용 상승 추세로 기업의 원가 압력이 증대되고 있고, 이러한 변화된 경쟁 환경에서 생존하기 위해서는 전체적인 생산성 향상이 필수이다. 가격경쟁력 강화 및 원가압박을 해소하고 품질, 가격, 납기 전반에 모방할 수 없는 차별화된 경쟁력의 확보는 생산성 향상을 통해서 실현할 수 있고, 생산성 향상을 통한 경쟁력 있는 기업 육성은 우리 제조업을 발전시키는 토대(infra structure)이며, 기반 시설의 확충이다. 본 연구에서는 현재 외국의 혁신방법을 우리산업 현실에 대한 고려 없이 단순 도입으로 국내 실정에 맞지 않아 상당한 시행착오를 격고 있으며, 국내에 벤치마킹 할만한 제조혁신 방법론이 거의 없고, 벤치마킹하려고 해도 기업의 영업비밀이라 배우기도 쉽지 않은 상황에서 우리산업 현실에 맞는, 중소 중견기업의 맞춤형 생산성 혁신 지원도구로 중소기업의 자생적인 혁신을 위해 중소기업의 수준에 맞는 제조혁신 방법을 국내외 제조혁신 전문가로 컨소기엄을 구성하여 한국생산성본부에서 개발된 한국형제조혁신 방법론을 제조기업에 적용하여 성공적인 결과를 다른 기업에 적용 할 수 있도록 하는데 목적을 둔다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 문헌연구를 통해 일본의 TPS(Toyota Production System), 미국의 Lean 시스템 및 6시그마 시스템에 대하여 살펴보았고, 한국형 제조혁신 모델인 KPS(korea production system)를 통신장비 제조회사인 M. 사에 적용하여 실증하였으며, 그 결과 우수한 성과를 보임을 확인할 수 있었다.

Technological innovations is a main source of competitive advantage and at the same time, it needs great investment to achieve it. So in the back of many successful firms, always there is great technological innovation and much investment to achieve it. But investment in technological innovation does not always give good performance. In this paper according to the technological innovation model presented by Abernathy and Utterback(1975), the relationship between technological innovation and manufacturing strategy/ manufcaturing activity is testified by domestic firms empirically. The ultimate purpose of this paper is to prepare for basement of normative research on technological innovation to improve firm performance.

This study aims to make an analysis of the innovation milieu in connection with the agricultural products and distribution system, and suggest policy alternatives for agricultural development and rural community. The decisions on the agricultural management are highly depend on the individual farm household' conditions(labor force or profits) rather than the crop units(JAKMOKBAN) or others. The partnerships of the innovation agents and trust between the individual farm households are considerably weak. From this paper, we suggest as follows to improve the regional agricultural industry and rural community development. The individual farm households need to convert market-oriented production system. And it is more important to enhance the innovation milieu than to enlarge physical infrastructure for agricultural development and rural community.

중소기업의 기술혁신은 제품의 생산성을 높임으로써 궁극적으로는 새로운 영역에의 참여와 고용창출 효과를 가져올 뿐만 아니라 국가의 수출경쟁력에 이바지하는 기여도가 매우 높다. 중소기업은 규모가 작고 유기적인 조직구조의 특성상 탄력적으로 기술혁신에 대처할 수 있는 유리한 면이 있지만, 국내의 중소기업 기술혁신은 매우 열악한 상태이다. 따라서 대기업을 위주로 형성되어 있는 통합생산관리시스템(CIM)의 개념을 도입하고 산업용네트워크와 통합생산관리시스템을 적용하는 중소기업 기술혁신의 추진전략에 대해 설명하였다.

Ever since Parkland corporation went into domestic men's fashion market with his own brand 'Parkland' in 1988, the company accomplished enormous sales increase compared to competitors and attained steadfast positioning as a leading brand with competence. This case study deals with the parkland's systematic efforts mainly focused on integrated business innovation such as production, distribution, and management innovation, and shows Parkland's differentiated marketing strategy which leads to outstanding business performance. And, strategic implications to succeed in the long run are followed.

The main aim of this paper is to provide a plan for building an effective and competitive innovation system of Daeduck Valley in Korea through analysing the process of knowledge production and commercialisation of venture firms in the perspective of industry-(university) research networks. Since 1997, with the willingness of the government aimed at building' second Sillicon Valley', an ostensible innovation system cantered around the existing science technology town has been able to be built in Daeduck Valley. Nonetheless, some fundamental problems with the knowledge production and commercialisation of venture firms were appeared as the results of this study. It is led tv not only the lack of network agents and institutes that are able to facilitate and coordinate the networks of economic actors comprised of the innovation system, but also the impertinent roles of economic actors. In particular, these problems were differentiated in accordance with the growth stage of venture firms and the processes of knowledge production. Therefore, several policy implications for building innovation system are suggested in the perspective of the complement of existing innovation system of Daeduck, rather than constructing a new innovation system. At the same time, they are provided in accordance with different growth stages and knowledge production processes.

This study aims to analyze Next Production Revolution (NPR) technologies through evidence-based keyword network in order to cope with the change of production paradigm called the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). For the analysis, a total of 441 papers related to NPR or 4IR were extracted and the NPR technology network was constructed based on the simultaneous appearance relationship of the author keywords of these papers. Based on the NPR technology network, we explored key technologies through analysis of centrality and keyword group. As a result, technologies such as 'digital twin' and 'modeling and simulation', discovering insights by connecting the virtual and physical world in real time and reflecting them into design and process, are analyzed as key technologies.

본 연구는 1980년부터 2000년 동안 9개 산업에서 정보통신 관련 자본(IT Capital Stock)을 이용하여, 해당 산업의 기술혁신에 기여도를 분석하였다. 순차적 분석방법에 따른 결과는 기술혁신을 나타내는 대리변수인 총요소생산성과 정보통신자본량이 단위근을 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 두 변수사이에 장기적인 공분산 관계가 성립하였다. 정보통신자본이 기술혁신에 기여도를 분석한 결과는 사용하는 계량 추정량에 따라 정보통신자본의 1단위증가는 0.19에서 0.07까지 기술혁신에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 우리나라의 경우 정보통신자본의 Solow(1989)의 "생산성 역설"가설은 장기적 패널자료를 사용하여 분석한 결과는 정보통신자본의 Solow(1989)의 "생산성 역설"가설을 뒷받침하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.을 뒷받침하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
