许多高科技行业正在将他们的重点从最小化上市时间转移到最小化量产时间。这使得产品开发的末端，即生产爬坡，处于关键位置。本文提出了一个案例研究的产品转移和生产爬坡在硬盘驱动器行业。我们提供了一个详细的描述的爬坡期。通过记录几个操作措施的详细时间序列数据，我们还揭示了允许组织增加其产量的各种力量。最后，我们的研究环境使我们能够研究产品从美国开发到离岸生产设施的转移。
Many high-tech industries are shifting their focus from minimizing time-to-market to minimizing time-to-volume. This puts the tail end of product development, the production ramp-up, in a critical position. This paper presents a case study of product transfer and production ramp-up in the hard disk drive industry. We provide a detailed description of the ramp-up period. By documenting detailed time-series data of several operational measures, we also shed light on the various forces that allow an organization to increase its production volume. Finally, the setting of our research allows us to study product transfer from development in the US to an off-shore production facility.
