“…The CET quality is closely associated with the excellent communication culture among the teams to complete the task uninterruptedly (Kennedy et al, 2011). Enriched coordination among CET lowers the communication barrier among teams and helping to circulate information which accelerates better decision making ability (Anthony et al, 2014). From the above discussions the statements can be drawn:…”

“…The cross-cultural differences among the teams affect the success of the innovation oriented projects (Ghauri & Rosendo-Rios, 2016). Entrenched relationships of top managers of CFT with team members helps in resolving conflicts, which could occur within the team (Anthony et al, 2014) and motivates to develop innovative products (Hartmann, 2001) through concurrent development activities. The collaboration among the interdisciplinary teams proposes better team performance utilizing the diverse team qualities (Saji, 2004).…”

Teamwork, for competitive advantage, involving techno-socio-cultural aspects of organizations for engineering developments, is gaining importance rather rapidly due to advent of globalization. The purpose of this study is to identify the importance of teamwork culture for new product development (NPD) success through enriching the NPD team's capability in Indian manufacturing industries. It accumulates the teamwork culture dynamics and practices, their interrelationships and their combined impact on NPD team's capability in terms of technological developments for NPD success. This practical analysis collects primary data from 263 design and development experts from Indian engineering manufacturing companies. Structural equation modeling (SEM) approach is applied to investigate the interrelationship among associated variables of teamwork culture and NPD team's capability for NPD success. Concurrent engineering team (CET), communication infrastructure (CI), system integration (SI) and result orientation (RO) have been recognized as allied factors of teamwork culture. Successful adoption of associated variables ensures NPD success through influencing NPD team's capability which in turn articulated by technological developments. The realization of combined impact of teamwork and its allied variables escalates technological developments which in turn enriches NPD team's capability assuring organizational success. The result indicates that both CI and SI support CET for accelerating NPD team's capability through technological developments. Besides, CET motivates innovation orientation most precisely referred as RO for escalating NPD team's capability through technological developments for innovation.

“…Na busca por consistência, a abordagem de adequação à estratégia aplicada ao estudo da TC propõe o alinhamento entre os níveis estratégico e operacional das empresas (Hong (Anthony et al, 2014). O alinhamento estratégico e operacional tem sido citado como uma consequência do alinhamento das medidas de desempenho entre áreas funcionais (Hirunyawipada et al, 2010).…”

“…Essas declarações reforçam a necessidade de aplicação de práticas para garantir a adequação estratégica, tal como sugerido na quarta proposição. São práticas comuns destacadas na literatura de TC interfuncional no PDP a coordenação lateral entre áreas funcionais (Anthony et al, 2014) e o alinhamento das medidas de desempenho destas (Hirunyawipada et al, 2010).…”

RESUMONo contexto de adoção da estratégia de servitização, o processo de desenvolvimento do produto (PDP) é altamente dependente da geração de novos conhecimentos para fornecer soluções de integradas de produtos e serviços. Nesse contexto, a área de suporte de produto tem o potencial de agregar ao time de PDP conhecimento sobre oportunidades, desenvolvimento e entrega de serviços. No entanto, falta orientação sobre como as empresas podem conduzir essa integração da área de suporte ao produto com outras áreas do PDP mirando na servitização da oferta. Assim, o objetivo desse artigo é propor um modelo conceitual com enfoque na transferência de conhecimento (TC) interfuncional durante o PDP para servitização. O modelo conceitual foi desenvolvido através de uma revisão da literatura sobre aspectos da TC interfuncional no PDP e da servitização. Na sequência, o modelo conceitual proposto foi confrontado com a prática por meio de seis estudos de casos em empresas servitizadas. Como resultado, o modelo conceitual proposto concentra-se em trazer a TC a partir da área de suporte de produto para os estágios iniciais da definição de problema, a fim de substituir modelos mentais tradicionais de empresas de manufatura apenas focados na oferta de produtos.Palavras Chave: Servitização, Desenvolvimento de Produto, Transferência de Conhecimento Interfuncional.revista Ingeniería Industrial-Año 16 Nº1: [55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70] 2017 Modelo conceitual para a servitização ….

“…(Badger, et al, 2012) explains the importance of leadership competences as a success factor in projects and advocate for a targeted, on-site introduction and improvement of leadership competencies. More recently (Anthony, et al, 2013) investigates the coordination among department heads. Quite interesting, one of the few authors that does not assume that the project manager is the project leader are (Easton & Rosenzweig , 2015).…”

-There are several definitions of Systems Engineering (SE) in the literature, each with different definitions of its relationship with Project Management (PM), causing a great deal of misunderstanding. The paper offers a broad and critical discussion of the relevant literature with a deep reflection concerning the historical evolution and state-of-the-art of both the definition of SE and its relationship with PM. This endeavor provides two main results: (i) a conceptual framework to define SE in a project based environment and (ii) a model to identify the best formal interaction between the Project Manager and System Engineer based on the project characteristics.
