اظهر المزيد [+] اقل [-]Shipbuilding costs in the United States since 1973 have risen at a rate that is almost five times the rate of increase from 1939 to 1973. This is the same period when the numerous benefits of the National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) were being realized by the U.S. Navy, shipyards and the industrial base industries. Clearly something far greater than a few sporadic improvements is now needed. Indeed, the only way to secure and improve one's competitive position today is by instituting a process of on-going improvement. Few would disagree that a process capable of generating an evolving, on-going improvement would be beneficial, but anybody who has tried to introduce any new process to an organization knows all to well the multitude of obstacles encountered. experience shows that when these obstacles are closely examined, most will be found in the resistance of the people affected. This paper discusses the use of Constraint(s) Management as a process to overcome this resistance which then can lead to significant reductions in ship construction times and costs and possibly the revitalization of the U.S. Flag Merchant Marine.
