This paper presents an efficient reengineering technique for the logistics process innovation which is the foundation of supply-chain management. Based on consulting experience on the domestic manufacturing firms, this paper provides promotion step for logistics innovation and six reengineering points including check system for customer's credit limit, check system of real-time inventory information, automatic system for sequential production plan, automatic order-release system, automatic packing system, and happy-call system for order-forward information. For each reengineering point, application cases in domestic industry are also presented.

This study was conducted to propose creative innovation systems. The effect that cooperation network factors of innovation system in telecommunications sector called typical knowledge industry have on technological innovation was examined. We used the Korea Corporate Innovation Survey (KIS) Data for this study, it has to apply the OECD NESTI-WPIA methodology for probit analysis. The analysis derived the following findings. First, cooperation between the principal innovations in the telecommunication information generally have a positive impact on innovation. Second, cooperation with private institutions have an important role in technological innovation. Third, the various cooperation exerts a positive impact on innovation and has a greater impact on practical innovation in a low creativity level. With this result, it seems that our technological innovation policy should follow a direction of building corporatist-type system to establish cooperation promotion, privately led innovation, and a variety of opinions.

The purpose of this research is empirically investigating organizational/managerial factors affecting BPR implementation between Korean and US companies. And we compared the critical success factors and business innovation performance of Korean companies to those of US companies based on the prior research. Seven variables that represent success of BPR implementation are identified. They are : (1) reduction of process time (2) reduction of process cost (3) upgraded skill or knowledge (4) improved quality of process output (5) improved quality of work life (6) responsiveness to customer need (7) overall perception of BPR success. The result showed that the performance of US companies is better than that of Korean companies. Especially level of overall perception of BPR success of US companies is more high than that of Korean companies. The reason is that business innovation of Korean companies is focused on functional unit and incremental improvement.

Object-orientation has been proposed as a promising software process innovation to improve software productivity and quality. It has not been understood clearly, however, what factors influences the diffusion of object-oriented technology in organizations. A research model was formulated and hypotheses were generated based on the literature of information technology implementation and software process innovation. To test the research hypotheses, a questionnaire survey was conducted. The results based on 121 responses from Korean companies revealed that project characteristics, use of external experts, and number of development projects are significantly related to the diffusion of object-oriented analysis and design and object-oriented programming. Innovation champion is positively related to the diffusion of object-oriented analysis and design, whereas it is not related to the diffusion of object-oriented programming language. Only project complexity was significantly related to the diffusion of visual programming language. On the other hand, organizational size was not significantly related to any object-oriented technology in this study.

In this study, we propose the guideline with strategic model for new product development. To establish the guideline, 1) we classify several types of successful surveyed cases that achieved open innovation through applying crowdsourcing into new product development environment, 2) draw case maps using two or three axis with characteristics such as: step of product development process, crowdsourcing frequency, and product type of each case, 3) define the type of applying crowdsourcing into new product development environment based on case analysis results, and tabulate a crowdsourcing type based on the defined crowdsourcing type, 4) finally, suggest the guideline with multiple points of view which embrace type of crowd, community management, participation method, knowledge adoption method, and reward policy. Using the suggested guideline will help a company to design and establish open innovation in new business model related to product development area.

The purpose of this thesis is to analyze empirically the relationship between market structure, measured by Herfindahl-Hershmann Index(HHI), and financial factors, and innovation in Korean industry panel datasets for 2000-2006. Results show that debt ratio and scale of the firm has a consistent positive effect on the investment in research and development. As more scale of the firm is getting bigger, the investment in R&D decrease. Also, as more debt ratio of firm rise, the investment for innovation increase. Concentration ratio, the HHI and the classification factor of High-tech industry and Low-tech industry has a consistent positive effect on the innovation. Factors affecting the investment in research and development include market structure and characteristics of industry as well as the internal affairs of the firm.

This paper explores the possibility of improving R&D management system through researchers' satisfaction analysis. The relationship between job satisfaction and performance has traditionally been one of the engaging topics in organization psychology. However, the research results of the past showed the relatively low level of correlation between satisfaction and performance at the individual level. In contrast to these past research results, recent research results on this relationship at the organizational level revealed the higher correlation between these two factors, The present study extends this 'satisfaction and performance' hypothesis to the development and improvement of R&D management system. That is, we used the results of researchers' satisfaction analysis to devise appropriate criteria for the design and implementation of more effective R&D management systems. This paper seeks to show that we can make fruitful use of researchers' satisfaction analysis in order to choose a more effective one among alternative R&D management systems.

Six Sigma emphasizes KPI and establishes the present level as well as the goal level through statistical calculation and tries to achieve management innovation through process improvement. But in the area of new product development or service, sufficient data for statistical measurement may not be secured. On the other side, looking for contradictions through problem analysis, TRIZ is a methodology that stresses the process of solving these problems. TRIZ also has its own problems: it is hard to define its initial task, to objectify the measurement of effect, and to optimize the drawn out idea. The purpose of this report is to give a comprehensive understanding about each methodology (Sigma Six and TRIZ) through its analysis, to confirm the need of linking both methodologies, and to suggest a model for this linking process. Also, they will be verified through examples, and the synergy effect will be discussed.

After 6 Sigma administration is introduced in domestic in 1997, many corporations are utilizing by survival strategy and method of administration reform. This is applied in all field that this led to R&D from service industry by the next. Success factors by each field was studied and announced applying in various types of business. The Korail and Korea Post, the Ministry of Environment and various public corporation and governmen and municipal office are introduce and utilizing 6 Sigma administration by innovation method present. But, research about success factor that special quality of public sector is considered up to now was almost no. This treatise analyzed 6 Sigma' success factors and effect relation to public corporation.
