Diploma Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Engineering - Industrial Engineering and Management, grade: 1,0, University Karlsruhe (TH) (Institut fur Produktionstechnik - wbk), 50 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Sourcing relatively simple standardized commodity-like items from Chinese suppliers already poses considerable sourcing challenges. But methodologies and best-practice guidelines exist to identify Chinese suppliers, to develop them, and to establish a global supply chain. However, the case of sourcing unique components from Chinese suppliers is not widely published in the academic literature. Unique components are complex from an engineering point of view, and they are ordered in low volume. Based on a multiple-case study in the electromechanical engineering industry, the result of this thesis is a best-practice guideline for sourcing unique components from Chinese suppliers. The guideline addresses the involvement of different functions including quality assurance with the Chinese supplier, and it shows the different approaches the case companies take for selecting the suppliers. Also, the companies' production management is addressed. The conclusion is that there are two promising approaches depending on the customer's re-quirements. One approach is to outsource engineering and manufacturing as far as possible, the other is to engage in a close buyer-supplier-relationship.

Doktorarbeit / Dissertation aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Theologie - Vergleichende Religionswissenschaft, Note: 2,7, Universitat Erfurt (Theologische Fakultat), Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen: Das Promotionsverfahren wurde mit "magna cum laude" abgeschlossen., Abstract: Wurde in der sozialistischen Ideologie e i n e Gemeinschaftsform fur alle als verbindlich erklart, weil sie als die einzig wissenschaftlich fundierte anzusehen ware, gab es nach der Wiedervereinigung im gemeinsamen Deutschland plotzlich einen schier unuberschaubaren Pluralismus an Gemeinschaftsvorstellungen und Modellen, die - gleich aus welcher theoretischen oder praktischen Schule sie stammten - eine Gleichgultigkeit" beanspruchten. Fur Romano Guardini war es schon sehr fruh zur Uberzeugung geworden, dass menschliche Gemeinschaft letztlich nur einem Modell folgen sollte und einem Urbild verpflichtet war, das sich ihm schon auf den ersten Seiten der Bibel darbot: dem Menschen als Mann und Frau, den Menschen als Ebenbild/Abbild Gottes des Schopfers, der sich nach christlichem Verstandnis als der Dreieine, als innergottliche Communio offenbart hat. Hier stellt Gott selbst das Modell auf, hier gibt die Offenbarung die Messlatte" vor, an der sich menschliches Miteinander zu orientieren hat. In Chiara Lubich und der Fokolarbewegung begegnet uns eine moderne Spiritualitat, die in wenigen Jahrzehnten zahlenmassig grosse Verbreitung erfahren hat, aber auch in ihren Strukturen eine der Kirche insgesamt vergleichbare Breite entfaltete. Das Schlusselwort ihrer Sendung lautet Einheit, Ausdruck von Gemeinschaft, die aus gegenseitiger Liebe und Hingabe entsteht und lebt. Vor allem Planen und Handeln geht es den Anhangern dieser Spiritualitat um die Gegenwart dessen, der diese Einheit verwirklichen und fruchtbar machen kann: Gott soll in der Mitte seines Volkes wohnen (vgl. Ex 29,45f.) und Jesus, als der Mensch gewordene Gottessohn, als der auferstandene Christus, in ihrer Mitte sein (vgl. Mt 18,20). B
