Purpose -The purpose of this paper is the presentation of a new optimisation approach for product variance from the purchasing perspective. Design/methodology/approach -The research is based on a case study of a collaboration with a global acting automotive Tier 1 supplier, who produces steering systems for cars and commercial vehicles. A total of 116 different variants of three components of a car automotive steering system were analysed and evaluated. The data was gathered from 13 sub suppliers for three different types of a steering system. Findings -Unnecessary time, money, quality and technology can be saved through a greater understanding of such product variances. The results of the case study lead to a general method to optimise existing product variance and present cost improvements and a new key performance indicator to manage product variance out of the purchasing department. Research limitations/implications -The research is based on a purchasing case study at a Tier 1 supplier of the automotive branch. The approach can be used for other company departments like e.g. logistics and for different industries than automotive. Practical implications -A company can be successful and competitive when it meets the customer needs with a maximum on satisfaction without generating of waste. Unnecessary existing product variance is a kind of waste. The insights of this article support the operative user and the strategic company management to reduce and improve unnecessary variance in different sections. Originality/value -The structured analysis of product variance from the purchasing perspective and the key performance indicator "variance share" are new to company management. The research focuses on the management of existing variance out of the purchasing department which is a segment that has received limited academic attention in research to date.

“…Besides, there are many types of collaboration with their respective relationship among participants. In order to have successful integration, all components involve in a collaboration have to be considered and managed [39]. Coordination aspect is seen as important factor to be considered in the mapping of relationship as it relate interdependency among business process [33].…”

In order to be competitive through globalisation and free trade agreements, Small Manufacturing Enterprises must provide a high quality products at a competitive price at the right time. But inadequate resources of the enterprises have prevented them to remain competitive. Therefore they need to innovate and find new ways to overcome these challenges. Collaborative Manufacturing Network (CMN) is a way forward to address these challenges. However, the process of collaboration is not a simple process. Instead, it is a complex and very dynamic process since there are many factors involved that need to be considered for the establishment of a successful collaboration. Many researches have been conducted in this area of CMN, but there are still numerous unsolved problems identified. Decision making issues and formulating business collaboration model in a context of CMN are two such issues. This research tries to identify the problems faced in a CMN environment, stress on the importance of building a model based on the consideration of aspects involved in a CMN and then identifying model for decision making process in a CMN Environment.

Abstract-Tough competition in the current global economies has forced manufacturing enterprises, especially small and medium manufacturing enterprises (SMMEs) to collaborate with other companies to survive. They strive to manage their products to achieve a high level of customer satisfaction at a competitive price in a timely manner with the best quality. Collaborative models covering part of the whole production process have been developed providing advantages to the participating companies. Integration of these current collaborative models into a holistic collaborative manufacturing model could provide operational cost savings as well as significantly increasing competitive advantage. However, there is no current review which provides a comprehensive picture of such integration. Therefore, this study aims to provide a thorough literature review of the current collaborative models, their advantages and their collaborative components which are used to support the collaboration process. Four areas of collaborative models namely; collaborative forecasting, collaborative design and product development, collaborative manufacturing and collaborative distribution are discussed. The majority of previous works tend to overlook combinations of collaborative models in the concerned aspects. Hence, future research opportunities to bring those areas more closely linked to each other is proposed so that manufacturing enterprises can take maximum benefit from all of the current models of collaborative manufacturing.Index Terms-Collaborative manufacturing network (CMN), models of collaborative manufacturing, SMME.
