본 연구는 우리나라 중소제조기업의 수출성과 결정요인을 살펴보았다. 우선 기존 연구를 살펴보고, 수출성과 선행요인으로 기업가정신과 제품차별화 역량을 설정하였다. 또한, 수출성과의 선행요인으로서 제품차별화 역량을 기업가정신과 수출성과의 매개요인으로 분석하였다. 이로써, 기업가정신, 제품차별화 역량 그리고 수출성과의 통합적 모형을 구축하고 그 관계를 살펴보는 것을 연구의 목적으로 하였다. 실증분석에서는 국내 중소제조 수출기업 152개 표본에 PLS(Partial Least Square) 분석을 이용하였다. 분석도구는 SmartPLS2.0을 사용하였다. 분석 결과 중소제조기업 기업가의 위험감수성과 혁신성은 제품차별화 역량과 수출성과에 모두 긍정적 영향을 미쳤다. 제품차별화 역량 역시 중소제조 수출기업의 수출성과에 긍정적 영향을 준다는 점을 확인하였다. 매개효과 분석에서는 제품차별화 역량이 기업가정신 중 혁신성과 수출성과 사이에 유의한 매개효과를 나타냈다. 그러나 위험감수성에는 유의한 매개효과를 나타내지 못했다. 이러한 결과는 중소제조 수출기업에 제품차별화 역량이 필요할수록 적극적으로 혁신성향을 추구해야 한다는 점을 시사한다. 즉, 제품차별화를 시도할 때 위험감수성보다 혁신성향을 강조하는 것이 의미가 있음을 보여준다. 이에 본 연구는 제품차별화 역량의 매개효과를 분석한 점에서 동적역량이나 경쟁우위 관점에서 중소제조기업의 수출성과를 살펴보려는 연구에 이론적 시사점을 가진다. 또한, 중소제조 기업 경영자에게는 위험감수성과 혁신성의 역할이 모두 중요하지만, 낯선 환경의 외국시장 경쟁에 필요한 제품차별화 역량에는 혁신성향의 역할에 더 주목해야 한다는 실무적 시사점을 제시한다.

More than a decade after their development and first wave of deployment, Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing have recently returned on the corporate agendas of a larger number of corporations across industries and supply chains. In the wake of their re-surge, this commentary addresses the evolution, context, content and deployment patterns of the two distinct management concepts. It also analyses claims in the business press that a merger is taking place between Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing. Here, it is found that there is not enough evidence to broadly support such claims, and it is only concluded that there is some evidence of an early tend towards a merger and that a possible merger would have many synergies and advantages. Finally, an example from a Scandinavian manufacturing company is provided that explains how Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing can be used in a beneficial way for companies to reach world-class performance.

In the automated manufacturing systems, the problem regarding how to make production activities flexible is even more important and critical than that regarding how to product large quantities, and the more flexible, if possible, the manufacturing system is, the more competitiveness and profitable factors it gets. This research, therefore, concentrated on establishing the flexibility and evaluating performance on the manufacturing system, operational flexibility is considered because of enabling the manufacturing system to get both the improvement of production rate and the adaptive ability of environment changes. For it, we used the analytical tool, GSPNs, which is a kind of timed Petri-Nets. GSPNs is competent enough to consider practical situations just like operation priorities, machine failure, randomness, concurrency and so on. Through the GSPNs analysis, it is confirmed that in the manufacturing system with operational flexibility is compatible with the traditional performances such as production rate or mean waiting time.

Although there are numerous studies that address the problem of optimal machine grouping and part family classification for cellular manufacturing, little research has been reported that studies the conditions where cellular manufacturing is appropriate. This paper, in order to evaluate and compare the job shop with the GT cellular shop, the performance of those shops were simulated by using SIMAN. We tested the effect of independent variables including changes of product demands, intercell flow level, group setup time, processing time variability, variety of material handling systems, and job properties (ratio of processing time and material handling time). And also performance measures (dependent variables), such as machine utilization, mean flow time, average waiting time, and throughput rate, are discussed. Job shop model and GT cellular shop written in SIMAN simulation language were used in this study. These systems have sixteen machines which are aggregated as five machine stations using the macro feature of SIMAN. The results of this research help to better understand the effect of production factors on the performance of cellular manufacturing systems and to identify some of the necessary conditions required to make these systems perform better than traditional job shops. Therefore, this research represents one more step towards the characterization of shops which may benefit from cellular manufacturing.

As products have been more complex and customer's demands of personalized products are increasing, manufacturing system has been changed from mass production to mass customization production that makes small quantity but different kinds of product. In addition, it becomes important that manufacturers quickly respond to variable customer's demands and characteristic regulations in each country. Therefore, three prerequisites are essential for manufacturers to response agilely. First, manufacturing data should be monitored in real time, second, information is extracted from the data, and finally, the information is used to make manufacturing strategy. In this paper, the mobile dashboard system is presented. It visualizes manufacturing data on mobile devices, and measures performance of the shop floor through the information. The proposed system is composed of server and client, and is running on the R - the open source software for statistics. Four kinds of template are given for easy visualization through the system.
