HOW TO APPROACH MANUFACTURING STRATEGIES

Into the Manufacturing Sector of local industry, both domestic and foreign capital, operate high level technologies, and is very usual to observe that a lot of different kind of technologies are implemented by relatively ineffective processes. This cause that all of those technologies, which were adapted, are not operated with all the effectiveness we can expect, that means a planning issue. Because of that, this article has as main purpose to analyze the descriptive models for the formulation of manufacturing strategies, which exist in the state of the art, and into the manufacturing industrial sector, in order to design a special model for planning, formulation, display and evaluation of Manufacturing Strategies (MS). Problem statement and specific questionnaires are performed; and objectives are presented. Later, an analysis of theory contents and descriptive models are described in order to determine the characteristics that a model with more capacity of explanation must have it. In addition to this, in this article are mentioned some recommendations, questions and key basis for future researches, regarding development and deployment of Manufacturing Strategies, with a systemic and strategic focus.
