Indicators Coefficient Calculation Using Technoware, Humanware, Organware and Infoware

Abstract

Abstract-Technological developments and competition between the manufacturing industries inIndonesia is currently growing very rapidly. Every manufacturing industry competing in the meet consumer demand increasingly varied. Technology is an important factor in enhancing this competition. Research made in companies engaged in the processing of natural rubber latex into rubber crumb, because Indonesia is one of the countries producing crumb rubber. A problem faced by the company is an imbalance use of technology in the production process. Technological imbalance here lies in the weakness of the storage system of information on the production are still using bookkeeping methods while machinery used for production is already a semi-automatic machines. In addition, many similar industries require companies to maintain product quality to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises. The purpose of this study was to measure the level of technological capability in the company. Completion method used is measurement technology using methods techno metric that which is obtained that the company has a TCC of 0.57. This indicates that the use of technology in general at the company had reached 57%. Companies still need improvements to increase the utilization of the technology that will ultimately have an impact on company productivity

New product development process in apparel industry using Industry 4.0 technologies

“…From the theoretical standpoint, the study confirms the findings of previous studies on technology components and their impact on organization strategies and performance (Siregar et al , 2016; Susihono, 2014; Smith and Sharif, 2007), explains the interrelation between four technology components and renders a valuable reference point for future academic research regarding the relationship between NPD technology components and NPD performance. Findings emphasize the need for four technology components for NPD process (Smith and Sharif, 2007), yet relative importance of different technology components varies depending on the level of automation within the organization (Siregar et al , 2016; Susihono, 2014). With the advancement of physical facilities through I4 technologies (Technoware), the need for blue-collar workers (Humanware) has diminished and the importance of knowledge and methods (Inforware) is widely recognized.…”

“…It is noted from the research background outlined above that there is potential for further investigation into conceptualizing and validating of key themes of I4 technologies, NPD process and performance, as the basis for improving NPD performance in the context of Sri Lankan apparel industry. Figure 1 shows the proposed framework of technology components (Siregar et al , 2016; Smith and Sharif, 2007), NPD process capabilities (Awwad and Akroush, 2016; Loch and Tapper, 2002) and NPD efficiency (Šenk and Roblek, 2019; Lee et al , 2008). Since this study focuses on I4 technologies in NPD process of apparel industry, specific literature on I4 applications in NPD process is considered when designing the conceptual framework.…”

“…Key themes of the framework (I4 technology components in NPD process and NPD performance) and associated indicators were identified from the literature (Siregar et al , 2016; Smith and Sharif, 2007; Awwad and Akroush, 2016; Loch and Tapper, 2002; Šenk and Roblek, 2019; Lee et al , 2008) to develop a structured questionnaire and are shown in Table 1. The initial part of the questionnaire was designed to collect information about study respondents' characteristics.…”

“…Inforware is the knowledge converted into documents and processes that are accessible to the organization and includes document facts, information device, which is related to the process, procedures, techniques, methods, theories specification, design, observation, manual and other facts disclosed through publication, document, and blueprint. Orgaware is an organizational framework which covers organizational framework, organization device and regulations required to contain technical device, the ability of human resources and information device consisting of management practices, organizational connection and setting to achieve positive results (Siregar et al , 2016; Smith and Sharif, 2007).…”

Technology content assessment for Indonesia-cable based tsunameter development strategy using technometrics model

“…Understanding of technology should be interpreted in a broad scope and must be integrated effectively to be applied to meet the requirements of INA-CBT development. From this understanding, four technology components, namely Technoware (facilities), Humanware (abilities), Infoware (facts), and Orgaware (framework) or THIO, are based on the 1989 Technology Atlas Project of The UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP), contribute to the transformation process to turn inputs into outputs [19], [20].…”
