Abstract
- The industrial world is changing rapidly and engineering organisations need to adapt fast to remain in business. Some of the pressures faced by engineering managers include: (1) the trend towards globalisation and the reliance on IT; (2) the increasing commercial pressures which demand continual improvements in quality, shorter lead times and reduced costs; (3) the increasing complexity of both products and processes; (4) the problems of retaining and retrieving knowledge and experience; and (5) the need to move towards sustainable development.
