Environmental changes require a paradigm shift at manufacturing
priority and management mindset. Flexible and agile manufacturing
have emerged as the new paradigm for the 21st century. Thus, value
chain flexibility becomes critically important for a firm to
achieve sustainable competitive advantages. This book clarifies the
concept of flexibility and its dimensions. Flexibility is the
ability to meet a variety of customer needs without excessive cost,
time, organizational disruption, or loss of performance.
Implicitly, the concept includes three dimensions of range,
mobility, and uniformity. With these three underlying dimensions,
the book identifies four flexibility components across the value
chain: product development, manufacturing, logistics, and spanning
flexibilities. Grounded on learning and capability theory, the book
defines the concept of technology infusion to explain the
attainment of value chain flexibility. The book also provides and
validates instruments to support empirical research. The analysis
should be useful to researchers and practitioners in the fields of
SCM, operation management, and information system.
