Abstract:

Technology transfer (TT) is the process of transferring skills, knowledge, technologies, methods of manufacturing, and facilities. Successful TT demands an integrated approach in order to plan, implement, evaluate and improve the transfer process comprehensively. For quantifying the technology level, various models have been developed and applied, however the total performance of a plant has not been quantified by the model. It is necessary to develop a mechanism of integrating the quantified technology level of each process into the total performance of the plant. This paper develops a plant system prediction model. In the model, a V‐process model is utilized for defining the whole procedure for analyzing the plant system, and the technology level quantification model developed by Yamane, Y., Takahashi, K., Hamada, K., Morikawa, K., Nur Bahagia, S., Diawati, L., Cakravastia, A., 2011. Quantifying the technology level of production system for technology transfer. Ind. Eng. Manag. Syst., 10(2), 97–103 is utilized for quantifying the technology level of each process. Also, to integrate the quantified technology level into that of the plant system, some functions are formulated. A case study in a manufacturing industry shows the effectiveness of the developed model.
