    Notes: This paper reports the initial findings from a study of the application of process analysis into a general practice. It discusses the issues surrounding the relationships between clinical and managerial tasks. A new model of primary care is proposed which takes into account management issues and separates out non-patient contact activities. Evidence is presented and conclusions are drawn about front/back office activities, general practice as a small business, patient care and suggestions are made for future work.

    Notes: Describes the combination of research methods used to investigate the process of Information Management (IM) in small firms. IM was defined as encompassing all management issues related to Information Systems (IS) and involving processes relating to planning, organization, control and technology.A large body of literature details the issues associated with IM in large organizations, assisting the understanding of the processes involved in this organizational context. This is not the case for small firms. Due to the different situational context of small firms, it is essential that the issues associated with IM be made explicit. Argues that a "between-methods" triangulated approach is most suitable for researching IM in small firms, enabling cross-validation of data yielded by different methods. The research approach was inductive, making use of a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. A mailed questionnaire study was conducted to identify macro level phenomena which were investigated at a later stage by developing case studies of four companies which had participated in the questionnaire study. This second phase of the research provided rich data on phenomena which occur at the micro level. The use of multi-site studies overcame the problems associated with the specificity of single case studies. The findings of the two research strategies were reconciled using Grounded Theory; conclusions were drawn and models generated for use by other researchers.

    Notes: "Lean working", "leanness" or "lean" are terms that can be used to describe "doing more with less" i.e. improved utilisation of an organisation's resources. This paper outlines the concept of leanness before developing thinking to describe a state of "corporate anorexia" - the inability to utilise or balance effectively the facets/resources of the organisation. There may be a variety of causes of this state of anorexia; this paper will not however consider all of them in detail, since its main focus is around identifying the characteristics of an anorexic organisation. The case study analysis presented focuses on the process of change undergone by an organisation when becoming lean and the extent to which this may result in corporate anorexia. A review of literature is used to develop a set of questions that can be used to consider the impact of the process of change to a state of leanness on various facets of the organisation, and in particular the way in which they balance with each other. These questions are then applied to some case studies in order to assess how lean an organisation is, and conclusions drawn about what the cases show in relation to both leanness and anorexia.

    Notes: Examines the manufacturing strategy framework developed by Hill and its development, comparing it to work in manufacturing strategy and other related fields. Discusses Hill's distinctive concepts of order-winning criteria and order-qualifying criteria. Also raises issues relating to manufacturing strategy more generally. Concludes that strategy is now about the very ability to change, not just about choosing the "right" change to make.
