Purpose: Technology readiness assessment(TRA) used as a standard readiness assessment tool in the acquisition program of weapon system has some limitations in the comprehensive understanding of the complex system. Therefore, this research is intended to suggest a holistic maturity assessment method for the acquisition of high quality weapon system. Methods: Technology readiness level(TRL), manufacturing readiness level(MRL), integration readiness level(IRL) and system readiness level(SRL) developed to assess system maturities in the various aspects are compared and analyzed to draw an improvement avenue for the current readiness assessment method. Results: TRL, MRL, IRL and SRL have large differences in their maturity targets during the acquisition life cycle: technological performance, manufacturing capability, interface between components and total system, respectively. They complement one another's shortcomings Conclusion: To achieve a successful acquisition of high quality weapon system, multi-dimensional readiness assessment is required. Therefore, comprehensive readiness assessment using TRL, MRL, IRL and SRL will contribute to the acquisition of high quality weapon system through the accurate maturity information of overall system.

제조성숙도평가(Manufacturing Readiness Assessment, MRA)는 제조 준비상태를 평가하는 방법으로 체계, 부체계의 개발 및 양산에서 발생할 수 있는 일정지연, 비용 상승, 품질 저하 등을 방지하지 위해서 2012년에 제도화되었다. 제조성숙도 평가는 군수품의 양산단계의 제조상 위험성을 사전에 식별하여 관리한 결과, 군수품의 품질수준이 개선되는 등 긍정적인 효과가 있었으나 실제 수행 시 피평가자가 평가항목에 대해 맞춤형으로 준비를 하면서 평가점수가 점차적으로 높아지는 등 준비상태 점검이라는 본래의 목적과는 달리 점수만 상승하는 평가점수 인플레 현상이 심화되는 문제점이 식별되었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 극복하고 과거 업체의 MRA 평가항목 이력을 반영하기 위해 HOM8, 평가항목 난이도를 반영하기 위한 DOM8, 평가항목의 중요도 및 사업별 특성을 고려한 ICOM8과 M8RA를 각각 정의하여 네가지 지표 가중치를 적용한 MWV(Manufacturing Readiness Level 8 Weighted Value)을 정의한 정량적인 MRA 평가모델을 제안한다. 제안된 모델을 통해 기존에 실시된 4개 사업에 대한 평가항목 간 MWV를 계산하였으며, 이를 통해 제안된 MRL 8 평가 방법론의 개선결과를 분석하였다.

The present research aims to examine whether learning from the supervisor influences readiness for change with the mediating impact of planfulness. Drawing upon the theory of planned behavior, it is hypothesized that learning from the supervisor positively impacts planfulness ability in individuals, which in turn enhances the readiness for change. Through using convenience sampling, the sample of 451 was collected from employees working full-time in the manufacturing and I.T. service organizations in India. Structural equation modeling and regression analysis indicate that learning from the supervisor is positively associated with readiness for change and planfulness. Additionally, planfulness fully mediated the relationship between learning from the supervisor and readiness to change. The findings of the present research highlight that continuous support and learning from the supervisor enhances the planfulness ability of the individual and consequently enhances individual readiness for change. The current research is pioneering in testing the hypothetical model associating learning from the supervisor, planfulness, and readiness for change.

Purpose: Simple part or equipment is necessary TRA(Technology Readiness Assessment) or MRA(Manufacturing Readiness Assessment). But sole maturity like TRA, MRA has limit complex systems or SoS(System of System). Especially complex weapon system need from the System Maturity Point of view. This research shows necessity of SRA(System Readiness Assessment). Methods: In case of complex systems, it is essential to SRA(System Readiness Assessment). For the purpose of calculating SRL(System Readiness Level), TRL and IRL must be calculated. And then SRL can obtain know from equation of TRL and IRL. To prove SRA effectiveness, it is calculated SRL of JTDLS(Joint Tactical DataLink System) programs. Results: SRA procedure is proposed and case study shows as examples of JTDLS programs. Although result of TRA is TRL6, result of SRA is not 0.6. From this research, we can know necessity of SRA. Especially complex systems or SoS(System of System) is essential to SRA. Conclusion: SRA(System Readiness Assessment) is required to overcome limitation of sole maturity and to achieve a successful acquisition of high quality weapon system. This research intended to suggest SRA procedure and case study in complex defense system.

The advent of digitalisation has transformed economies into more integrated, but increasingly complex systems. This new trend has brought dynamic changes in the manufacturing sector through advanced ICT infrastructure, smart factories, digitally-controlled logistics, and skilled ICT-labour. The impacts of the digital economy on manufacturing could be best illustrated through "Industry 4.0." With this wave of technological advancement, countries aim to establish an industrial ecosystem where every manufacturing process and function is connected and interacts through digital networks. Industry 4.0 presents opportunities for Emerging Asia, as the region has emerged as a fast-growing manufacturing hub and particularly a production base for ICT goods. However, growing production capacity, increased exports, and increases in FDI in the field of ICT goods manufacturing have so far contributed little to the development and diffusion of ICT. A huge gap exists in the ICT uptake amongst countries and between small and large firms. This paper highlights the level of Industry 4.0 readiness of Emerging Asia and key factors that determine its enhancement.

Research and development (R&D) methodology for the practical use of accident tolerant fuel (ATF) in commercial light water reactors is discussed in the present review. The identification and quantification of the R&D-metrics and the attribute of candidate ATF-concepts, recognition of the gap between the present R&D status and the targeted practical use, prioritization of the R&D, and technology screening schemes are important for achieving a common understanding on technology screening process among stakeholders in the near term and in developing an efficient R&D track toward practical use. Technology readiness levels and attribute guides are considered to be proper indices for these evaluations. In the midterm, the selected ATF-concepts will be developed toward the technology readiness level-5, at which stage the performance of the prototype fuel rods and the practicality of industrial scale fuel manufacturing will be verified and validated. Regarding the screened-out concepts, which are recognized to have attractive potentials, the fundamental R&D should be continued in the midterm to find ways of addressing showstoppers.

While the demand for ASP(Application Service Provider) focused on small and medium enterprises who are fully aware of needs of ICT readiness has been increasing, those who consider to adopt ASP are wondering whether their performance would be actually successful if they did. These concerns can be an important standard of judgement, when introducing new information systems, by analyzing ROI(Return on Investment) on the current enterprises. Therefore, to review the feasibility of investing IT and measuring the performance, this study suggests a framework for ROI analysis which estimates IT investment performance, through multi-criteria approach on both financial performance index and non-financial one. We applied methodology on ASP-based IT investment performance evaluation to sample manufacturing companies under 50 employees and deduced the main implications to be considered when introducing the system.

VMI(벤더 관리형 재고)는 소매업자에 있는 재고가 제조자나 벤더에 의해 모니터링되고 관리되는 유통채널 시스템이다. 의사결정책임을 공급사슬 위쪽으로 밀어내고 재고 보충결정을 집중화함으로써, 벤더가 전체 공급사슬이 더욱 경쟁력 있게 도와줄 수 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 한국 제조업자에 의한 VMI 수용에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 탐색하기 위한 것이다. 이 연구는 VMI를 도입하는 데에 대한 부담의 선행요인으로써 IT 준비성, 영업비, 정보공유를 제안한다. 또한 이 연구는 중소규모의 제조자들로부터 설문 결과를 수집하였다. 통계적 결과는 운영비용만이 VMI의 수용에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다는 것을 나타내었다. 그러나 IT 준비성과 정보 공유는 운영비용에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 결국 VMI 수용에 간접적인 영향이 있었다. 결론으로 이 연구결과의 학문적, 실무적 시사점도 논의되었다.
