Synopsis

Excerpt from Agile Manufacturing From a Statistical Perspective<br/><br/>Agile manufacturing, and, more generally, agility, have become topics of considerable interest to industry a source of ideas, conferences, organizations, and funding. Agility is broadly defined by the Agility Forum (an industry-led, government-funded organization established by the Iacocca Institute at Lehigh University) as the ability to thrive in a continuously changing, unpredictable environment (dove More concretely, agile manufacturing is thought of as the ability to quickly realize (design, produce, and deliver) totally new, customized, high-quality products at prices commensurate with mass production. To accomplish this, a structure that is envisioned is a virtual enterprise in which various resources, or processes, are linked, sometimes across corporate lines, in a type of partnership that goes-beyond traditional supplier-producer relationships.
