| Summary: | The introduction of Computer-Integrated Manufacturing plays a vital role in ensuring economic competitiveness. The implementation of CIM has long been considered to be problematic. As a consequence of this, discussions as to the suitability of a particular organisation or process for CIM have focused almost exclusively on the technical issues. However, it has now become clear that CIM affects almost all aspects of an enterprise, and considerations of qualification for CIM should not, therefore, be limited merely to technical aspects. Its introduction is as much a matter of the organisation of work, and of organisation development. High quality, flexible manufacturing processes can be achieved only by maintaining a balance between the implementation of new technology, the organisation of work, and vocational education. The qualification of employees and their willingness in the introduction of CIM is an essential key to success. |
