    Topics: Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Production Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, Traffic Engineering, Precision Mechanics
    Notes: Measuring the overall success of product development efforts hasbeen frustrating because there is no generally recognized metric tomeasure effectiveness. The R&D Effectiveness Index is introduced toaddress this need. It measures effectiveness by comparing the profitfrom new products to the investment in new product development. Providesthe details for calculating the index along with alternativeinterpretations. Finds a strong relationship between the R&DEffectiveness Index and other performance factors and argues that theR&D Effectiveness Index can be used to compare performance, measureimprovement, and evalute business units. Illustrates its application ina case study.

    Working cooperatively in an age of deregulation: Strategic alliances in Australia's telecommunications sector (1999)
    Bradford : Emerald
    The @journal of management development 18 (1999), S. 227-255

    Notes: This paper outlines the first part of a longitudinal study exploring strategic alliances as central mechanisms of inter-firm cooperation in the Australian telecommunications sector. It reports on the collaboration practices of the three carriers - Telecom, Optus and Vodafone - and their first-tier "partners". The Australian telecommunications industry is a useful site for theory testing and development because of its degree of business concentration, the strategic relationships and networks involved and the role of government in encouraging alliances and networks, especially since the move away from a single government-owned monopoly-carrier environment. The recent proliferation of interorganisational alliances means we need new approaches to understanding and a move away from simple assumptions about complex organizational structures and processes. Neither is the current superficial rhetoric promoting such arrangements as the answer to industry ills adequate. Conseqently, the present study aims to enhance more complex understanding of how such structural arrangements actually work - how they are formed, organized and managed over time. The study methodology centres on analysis of research and in-depth interviews with key industry and government executives. Proposed extensions of the present work involve a detailed communications industry survey and network analysis of relationships, with a special focus on relationships growing in the convergence of the telecommunications, entertainment, computing and media industries. When quotations from study participants are used, sources are generally not acknowledged in an endeavour to keep as much anonymity as possible.

    An Australian case in e-health communication and change (2002)
    Bradford : Emerald
    The @journal of management development 21 (2002), S. 621-632 
    Details
    ISSN: 0262-1711
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Australia's health industry is grasping the need to use IT and telecommunications with e-commerce strategies for improved cost-effective services to its key stakeholders. Addresses the changes occurring in Australia's healthcare industry influenced by experiments in e-commerce and focussed on the Project Electronic Commerce and Communication for Healthcare (PeCC). Initiated in 1997, as a joint activity of both government and industry, PeCC was developed to introduce e-commerce practices into the health sector with almost 700 suppliers, automating pharmaceutical and other supplies to hospitals. Supply chain communication will be facilitated by an Internet-based platform, allowing more efficient interaction between the pharmaceutical industry's outlets (retail and hospital pharmacies), wholesalers, suppliers and manufacturers. Promoting and demonstrating e-commerce for the pharmaceutical industry supply chain, the project connects manufacturers, wholesalers, suppliers and hospitals. Examines lessons in change management and communication that emanate from this health sector case, emphasising the issue of improving communication with key stakeholders about e-commerce and changes to the health system, and ensuring appropriate communication practices (including media selection) through the different phases of the project over time.
