The adoption of managed computer based manufacturing and
measuring techniques by small traditional engineering companies often
represents an unaffordable and high risk investment surgery technology that is
often not well understood by as recipients. Paradoxically, the opportunity for
complete success an a SME is greater than in a large company which very often
is incapable of full immigration due to the divisions and merits implicit to e
large higherathical organization. To derive full benefits from such an
investment the company most possess a sneuculom undemanding of its market,
fiscal environment, operations management engineering and technological skill,
manufacturing facilities and product range. It must adopt as appropriate
implementation of CIM the does not debase previous ad hoc investment
in what are often termed islands-of-automation or information technology.
For access a well planed stepwise approach is vital This
exposition reports on the approach adopted by a small to medium sized Scottish
Engineering Company specializing in the production of mechanical actuation
systems. Over a three year period the company embarked on a low cost phased
implementation of software and hardware systems that exploit a database to
integrate its design, manufacturing and business operations. The company s
investments were based on a percent assessment of its current and planned
product range, existing and planned manufacturing facilities, the scale of its
operations and business objectives. The impact of thus technological change on
the business operations of the company and its influence on the evolution of
its product range art discussed.
