The synergy of the interaction of methods and tools of management on the technologies of material processes

摘要

Purpose: The purpose of this monograph is to present a developed methodology of technology management with a particular focus on the specifics of heat treatment processes. Design/methodology/approach: Researches on the solution of the problem in question required semantic definition of the contemporary range of technologies in the area of material realization of production processes, both in term of the classical approach to the issue of technology designing as well as in the statement of the problem in the context of the governance aspects. The paper concerns the analysis and research in the interdisciplinary field of materials science and management science. Achievements: The main achievement relates to the design of technology management methodology that has been proposed so that it could be applied to a variety of manufacturing processes. Valuable and original results in both cognitive and application related terms to the determination of management technology have been obtained. Research limitations/implications: Research and analysis, in spite of their interdisciplinary scope, have been limited to the process of technology management in the field of heat treatment processes, despite they had been considered as special processes. Due to the specificity of the issue, it is difficult to estimate the economic impact of the implementation of the proposed solutions. Practical implications: The practical application of the proposed solution is related to the increasing demand for solutions concerning the application-type use of technology management by business entities to the production practice, but also this study is a starting point for further considerations and development of the scientific concept of technology management. Originality/value: Presented in this paper author's opinion in the field of technology management, including the developed technology management methodology is an original approach of the subject. The priority factors in the field of technology management have been indicated. The concepts of technology assessment and technology management model have been proposed. It has been shown the legitimacy of the undertaken actions to determine the scientific issue of technology management, including the merits of practical use in manufacturing processes has been indicated.
