Agile Manufacturing Enterprise Forum (AMEF)

9320951 Schmoyer本次论坛的目的是进一步发展敏捷制造的愿景，评估当前的实施状态，识别和优先考虑实践和相关技术中需要的变化，并影响敏捷制造的研究议程。论坛将对影响敏捷制造的技术和业务问题进行战略分析。它将作为一个行业的声音来定义和优先考虑支持敏捷制造的研究需求。论坛将根据要求提供关于整个敏捷制造计划（AMI）的建议，包括敏捷制造研究所和相关示范项目。论坛将根据现有课程和材料评估敏捷制造行业培训需求。该论坛在AMI的成功中发挥了核心作用，它提供了一个行业主导的研究所。该论坛将作为催化剂，协助传播和采用敏捷制造研究成果。这项研究的快速部署被视为该国重要的制造业战略。采用敏捷制造理念的企业有望迅速改变其经营特征。这将使他们能够利用新的制造技术，并促进对未预料到的市场机会的及时反应。

9320951 Schmoyer The purpose of this forum is to develop further a vision of agile manufacturing, to assess the current state of implementation, to identify and prioritize needed changes in practices and related technology, and to influence the research agenda on agile manufacturing. The forum will carry out strategic analyses of the technical and business issues affecting agile manufacturing. It will serve as an industry voice in defining and prioritizing research needs in support of agile manufacturing. The forum will provide recommendations as requested on the entire Agile Manufacturing Initiative (AMI) including the Agile Manufacturing Research Institutes and related demonstration projects. The forum will evaluate industry training needs in agile manufacturing against available courses and materials. This forum plays a central role in the success of the AMI which provides an industry-led institute. The forum will work as a catalyst to assist in the dissemination and adoption of the agile manufacturing research results. Rapid deployment of this research is seen as an important manufacturing strategy for the country. Enterprises which adopt agile manufacturing concepts are expected to change a broad range of operating characteristics quickly. This will enable them to take advantage of new manufacturing technologies, and to facilitate timely response to unanticipated market opportunities.
