Item Multi-attribute decision models for justification of cellular manufacturing systems(Inder Science, 2004-11) Sangwan, Kuldip SinghThere is a general challenge offered to the field of engineering economics by the introduction of advanced manufacturing systems. Typically, the traditional approaches do not account for the significant intangible benefits offered by cellular manufacturing systems. In this paper, an attempt has been made to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies by presenting two multi-attribute decision models – analytical hierarchy process and performance value analysis – for the justification of CMS. The usefulness of the proposed models is demonstrated through a case situation.Item Performance value analysis for the justification of world-class manufacturing systems(World Scientific, 2004) Sangwan, Kuldip SinghWorld-class manufacturing systems (WCMS) has attracted the attention of industries all over the world. The perceptible impact of WCMS lies in attaining the far reaching world-class standards. Attempts have been made to examine WCMS for the feasibility in Indian industries. The present work describes a performance value analysis for the justification of WCMS for Indian industries.Item Performance value analysis for justification of green manufacturing systems(World Scientific, 2006) Sangwan, Kuldip SinghGreen Manufacturing Systems (GMS) has attracted the attention of organizations all over the world. There is a general challenge offered to the field of engineering economics by the introduction of green manufacturing systems as, typically, the traditional approaches do not account for the significant intangible benefits offered by GMS. In this paper, an attempt has been made to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies by presenting a multi attribute decision model — Performance Value Analysis (PVA) — for the justification of green manufacturing systems. The usefulness of the model is demonstrated through an illustrative example. The results clearly show that the implementation of green manufacturing systems offers far better competitive advantages over the non-green manufacturing systems.
