Management Levers for Product Platforms
Platforming has become an important means of cost-sharing among industrial products. However, many firms face systemic downward pressure on commonality, with the result that many platforms realize less commonality than intended. Past research has hypothesized that divergence is the result of conflicting tensions between product customization / optimization and cost control. This article investi...
متن کاملKey Levers to Patient Safety
Healthcare Quarterly Vol.17 Special Issue 2014 45 Abstract The author calls for a critical assessment of the impact of investments made in the measurement of quality and safety, and reflects on whether a reorientation of some of this investment is required to realize the healthcare quality and safety improvement the system seeks. This article also reflects on several Canadian initiatives that h...
متن کاملBiological Levers and Extended Adaptationism
Two critiques of simple adaptationism are distinguished: anti-adaptationism and extended adaptationism. Adaptationists and anti-adaptationists share the presumption that an evolutionary explanation should identify the dominant simple cause of the evolutionary outcome to be explained. A consideration of extended-adaptationist models such as coevolution, niche construction and extended phenotypes...
متن کاملUnlocking the Performance Levers of Commercial Underwriting
As insurers face tremendous pressure to improve their financial performance amid rough global economic weather, efficient risk selection and accurate pricing have become even more critical. However, most commercial insurers go about these processes in a haphazard, labor-intensive and nonstandardized manner. Underwriters spend an unjustifiable amount of time dealing with unclear workflows, lack ...
متن کاملAtomic levers control pyranose ring conformations.
Atomic force microscope manipulations of single polysaccharide molecules have recently expanded conformational chemistry to include force-driven transitions between the chair and boat conformers of the pyranose ring structure. We now expand these observations to include chair inversion, a common phenomenon in the conformational chemistry of six-membered ring molecules. We demonstrate that by st...
