6 TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT

7 MANAGEMENT Management represents all actions of the overall system that determine the quality mission, policy, objectives and responsibilities and implement them by incorporating quality planning, strategy, control, assurance and improvements within the system of an organization.

8 BASIC MANAGERIAL FUNCTIONS Every manager perform the following basic functions (actions) Planning – thinking before doing Organizing – dividing main functions into subs Staffing – right person for the right job Leading – Inspire, motivate through vision, actions, strategy, actions, guidance and coaching Controlling – to bring deviations within permissible limits and plan Management being universal applies to all fields

DEFINITION OF TECHNOLOGY Technology can be defined as all the knowledge, products, processes, tools, methods, and systems employed in the creation of goods or in providing services. In simple terms, technology is the way we do things. It is the means by which we accomplish objectives. Technology is the practical implementation of knowledge, a means of aiding human endeavor. Zeleny (1986) highlighted this point by proposing that any technology consists of three interdependent, co-determining and equally important components:

DEFINITION OF TECHNOLOGY 1. Hardware: The physical structure and logical layout of the equipment or machinery that is to be used to carry out the required tasks. 2. Software: The knowledge of how to use the hardware in order to carry out the required tasks. 3. Brainware : The reasons for using the technology in a particular way. This may also be referred to as the know-why. Know-how: The learned or acquired knowledge of or technical skill regarding how to do things well. Know-how may be a result of experience, transfer of knowledge, or hands-on practice. People acquire technical know-how by received formal or informal education or training or by working closely with an expert in a certain field. Know-how can also be acquired through a recognized method of technology transfer.

11 CLASSIFICATION OF TECHNOLOGY Technology can be classified in several ways. The following classification are important in establishing a common vocabulary for ensuring useful discussion. New Technology A new technology is any newly introduced or implemented technology that has an explicit impact on the way a company produces products or provides service. One example is new computer software introduced to develop engineering drawings and thus replace manual drafting. Another example is an internet website designed to market the company’s products. The technology does not have to be new to the world, only to the company. It could have been developed years ago and used by others, but it is classified as new whenever introduced for first time in a new situation. New technology has a profound effect on improving productivity and maintaining a competitive business enterprise.

12 2. Emerging Technology An emerging technology is any technology that is not yet fully commercialized but will become so within about five years. It may be currently in limited use but is expected to evolve significantly. Example of emerging technology include genetic engineering, nanotechnology, superconductivity, and the Internet as a replacement for the personal computer. Emerging technologies create new industries and may make existing ones obsolete. They have the potential of triggering large changes in institutions and in society itself.

13 3. High Technology The term high technology (high tech) refers to advanced or sophisticated technologies. High technologies are utilized by a wide variety of industries having certain characteristics. A company is classified as high-tech if it fits the following description (Larsen and Rogers 1988:Mohrman and Von Ginlow , 1990): It employs highly educated people. A large number of the employees are scientists and engineers. Its technology is changing at a faster rate than that of other industries. It competes with technological innovating. It has high levels of research and-development expenditure. (A general guide is that the ratio of R&D expenditures to sales is 1 to 10 or twice the average for the industry.) It has the potential to use technology for rapid growth, and its survival is threatened by the emergence of competing technology. Some high-tech companies may be working with technologies that are “pushing the envelope.” These technologies may be referred to as “super-high technologies.”

14 Low Technology The term low technology refers to technologies that have permeated large segments of human society. Low technologies are utilized by a wide variety of industries having the following characteristics: The employ people with relatively low levels of education or skill. They use manual or semiautomatic operations. They have low levels of research expenditure (below industry average). The technology base used is stable with little change. The products produced are mostly of the type that satisfy basic human needs such food, shelter, clothing, and basic human services.

15 Medium Technology The term medium technology comprises a wide set of technologies that fall between high and low technologies. It usually refers to mature technologies that are more amenable than others to technology transfer. Examples of industries in this category are consumer products and the automotive industry.

16 Appropriate Technology The term appropriate technology is used to indicate a good match between the technology utilized and the resources required for its optimal use. The technology could be of any level-low, medium, or high. It does not make sense, for example, to use high technology when there is a lack of necessary infrastructure or skill personnel. This a dilemma faced by many developing countries that want to transfer technology used in more industrialized countries. They may push for the acquisition of high technology in cases where a medium level technology would be more effective. Utilizing the appropriate level of technology results in better use of labor resources and better production efficiency.

17 Codified Versus Tacit Technology Technology can be preserved and effectively transferred among users if it is expressed in a coded form. An engineering drawing is a coded form expressing shape, dimension, and tolerances about a product. A computer program of an optimization algorithm is a codified form that preserves and transmits knowledge about that algorithm. Tacit technology is non articulated knowledge. There is no uniformity in the way it is presented or expressed to a large group of people. It is usually based on experiences and therefore remains within the minds of developers. The technology developers are the ones who have the know-how in question . Tacit knowledge is transmitted by demonstration or observation, followed by assimilation by those who seek the knowledge. Transfer of tacit technology occurs by close contact and interaction between the source and host. Apprenticeship programs may serve as a vehicle for transferring the tacit nuances of specific professions or field.

18 Codified technology, on the other hand, allows people to know how technology works but not necessary why it works in a certain way. The brainware may be part of the tacit knowledge kept in the minds of developers and shape by their experiences during the development process. Transfer of technology is easier when the technology is in a codified form. It is harder, less precise, and more time consuming to transfer tacit technology. A complete mastery of the technology requires an understanding of both the explicit codified knowledge and the non explicit tacit knowledge.

19 Management of Technology Management of technology (MOT) is an interdisciplinary field that integrates science, engineering, and management knowledge and practice (Figure 1-1) The focus is on technology as the primary factor in wealth creation. Wealth creation involves more than just money; it may encompass factors such as enhancement of knowledge, intellectual capital, effective exploitation of resources, preservation of the natural environment, and other factors that may contribute to raising the standard of living and quality of life. Managing technology implies managing the systems that enable the creation, acquisition and exploitation of technology.

20 While the underlying premise for the MOT field is that technology is the most influential factor in a wealth-creation system, there are other factors that contribute to the system (Figure 1-1). For example capital formation and investment make significant contributions to economic growth. Labor is another factor in economic growth. Social, political and environmental considerations facilities or hinder the wealth-creating process. MOT treats technology as the seed of the wealth-creation system. With proper nourishment and a good environment, a seed grows to become a healthy tree.

21 FIGURE 1-1 THE INTERDISCIPLINARY NATURE OF MOT

22 Other factors contributing to wealth creation-including capital, labor, natural resources, public policy, and so on-provide the fertile land, environment, and nourishment needed for growth. Each one of these factors has its own disciplinary field of study and research. MOT, as an interdisciplinary field, combines knowledge from these disciplines. MOT has national, organization, and individual dimensions. At the national /government level (macro level) it contributes to shaping public policy. At the firm level (micro level) it contributes to the creation and sustainability of competitive enterprises. At the individual level it contributes to the enhancement of one’s worth in society.

23 Society needs Standard of living social and environmental issue The Customer Production Technology Creation or application Technology Conversion Market needs FIGURE 1-2 SPINNING OUT TECHNOLOGY Technology must connect with Customer needs to satisfy those Needs and achieve societal Goals. Technology is the engine of economic growth

24 MOT at the Film Level In USA, National Research Council report (1987) on management of technology defined it as an interdisciplinary field concerned with the planning, development and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the operational and strategic objectives of an organization. MOT is an interdisciplinary field because it involves combined knowledge from science, engineering, and business administration fields. It impacts different functional entities of the corporation: research and development, design, production, marketing, finance, personnel, and information. Its domain involves both the operational and the strategic interests of organization. The operational aspect deals with the day-to-day activities of the organization, while the strategic dimension focuses on the long-term issues.

25 Technology Labor Capital Natural Resources Market Public and Environmental Policy Wealth Creation FIGURE 1-3 FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO WEALTH CREATION

26 MOT at the National/Government Level From a macro-level perspective a more general definition may be appropriate for MOT. It can as defined as A field of knowledge concerned with the setting and implementation of policies to deal with technological development and utilization, and the impact of technology on society, organizations, individuals and nature. It aims to stimulate innovation, create economic growth and to foster responsible use of technology for the benefit of humankind.

27 THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK FOR MOT Figure 1-4 shows the basic concept of MOT as an interdisciplinary field of study and application. It illustrates how MOT creates a linkage among science, engineering, and management disciplines. From an academic point of view, this conceptual figure indicates that traditional field in science and engineering contribute to scientific discovery and to technology creation.
