(B) Enterprise Resource Integration
• Integrated Communications Systems -Information sharing
• Wireless Applications• Leveraged legacy systems
![Page 7: 13 - Engineering Management in the New Millennium](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55cf9c06550346d033a8463c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

(C) Supply Strategy
• Work Outsource: Production, back-office work, logistics, after-sales customer service, procurement, inventory management, new product design, and others
• Integrated parts suppliers - automobile component firms with flexible production maintained at capacity
• Integrated service organizations – Offering financial advisement, accounting, insurance and banking for many firms
![Page 8: 13 - Engineering Management in the New Millennium](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55cf9c06550346d033a8463c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

(D) Knowledge Management
• Preservation of know-how critical to knowledge-intensive companies
• Dissemination• Wide-spread applications to add value• Supply chains of knowledge agents and
centers
![Page 9: 13 - Engineering Management in the New Millennium](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55cf9c06550346d033a8463c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

(E) Organizational Changes
• Type one - Assemble and market products/ services to consumers: (1) retain core competence and outsource others, (2) form Supply chains, (3) focus on customer’s needs, (4) become Virtual organizations
• Type Two - Supply specialized products/ services to client companies: (1) build flexible production facilities (e.g., cells) to respond, (2) vertically integrated
![Page 10: 13 - Engineering Management in the New Millennium](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55cf9c06550346d033a8463c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
(E) Organizational Changes (cont’d)
• Transition from One to the other - Virtual organizations produce commodity-like products well - When breakthrough, leading edge performance is needed, no perfect information exists for product specification, virtual companies may swing back to vertical enterprises (e.g., Cisco in Optical Networks)
![Page 11: 13 - Engineering Management in the New Millennium](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55cf9c06550346d033a8463c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

• 3.4 million jobs by 2015 to low wages countries (China, India, Ireland, The Philippines, India, Mexico, and Russia)
• Pressure on American workers - How to justify the high wages with the value they create?
