Are You having trouble keeping your operations focused?

huckman, Robert S. - ;

It's a classic problem: Your business succeeds by building operational strengths that allow it to develop and deliver products or services better than anyone else. Then, over the years, as the business naturally broadens for opportunistic or defensive reasons, it loses its edge: Core strengths atrophy, efficiency or quality suffers, and you become vulnerable to cherry-picking by sharper rivals. In The Focused Factory, an article that appeared in Harvard Business Review some 35 years ago, Wickham Skinner came up with a solution for manufacturers that companies in the service sector have widely adopted as well: Take a factory whose product lines have proliferated and break it up into specialized units, each dedicated to a distinct task. Skinner suggested the plant within a plant, or PWP, model, whereby an existing facility is physically and organizationally divided into autonomous operations. Over the years this model has come to mean focused units that share people, equipment or other assets to some degree and may or may not be housed in the same building. Unfortunately the model has proved difficult to implement. According to my studies of a number of industries, this is because managers view it too narrowly - as an isolated tactical change in the structure of the firm's operation rather than as a system. As a result, they make a number of mistakes. This article will help managers address these issues and optimize their PWP systems..Printed journal
