Chapter 3 in The Hybrid Factory in Europe, 2004, pp 52-74 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The task of Chapters 3–9 is to present a full description of the results of our investigations into and analytical assessments of business management at Japanese-affiliated hybrid factories in Europe, with a particular emphasis on the transfer and adaptation of management and production systems. This chapter provides an overall picture of hybrid factories in Europe and a comparison with those in Asia and the United States, while Chapters 4–9 focus on specific countries and/or regions.
