ELECTRONIC MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY IN SINGAPORE INTRODUCTION Singapore Electronic Industry started 50 years ago in the 1960s with its first and only TV Assembly plant in Southeast Asia. And today, Singapore Electronic Industry has become the backbone of Singapore’s economy, contributing 5.3% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2013, 29% of total manufacturing output, and employed 80,000 workers, representing 19% of the total manufacturing labour force in Singapore (EDB, n.d). Due to the fragmentation of electronics production across East Asia and the loss of competitiveness in lower-end assembly operations due to overall high wages in Singapore. Majority of the consumer electronics and basic IT assembly operations have moved to lower wage…
Generally the higher the production output of the firm, the lower the unit cost of their product will be. Besides output volume, the speed of production will determine the lead time from manufacture to delivery. High productivity will enable manufacturing firms to achieve shorter production cycles which equates to better competitiveness in their respective markets. Capacity management will determine how efficient the manufacturer will be in producing its goods. Over capacity will result in…
Enterprise level. From other side, decisions taken on the business level have to be executed by control systems. Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) are service-oriented interfaces that join these two worlds. The classical MES are defined by a static hierarchy of services and data structures, which makes them very difficult to modify. The change of the production model from mass manufacturing to customised manufacturing and short-series production presents new challenges to MES [1]. The…

The first component of just in time manufacturing that lowers cost is the concept of just in time delivery. Instead of having the parts arrive at the factory, storing them in a warehouse and having to access the parts at a later time, the parts are used immediately upon arrival. This requires the parts to be brought in on a much smaller scale, by the truckload instead of by the trainload. This also requires there to be a very complex logistic system that ensures that all of the parts required…
The aircraft is then built in a final assembly manufacturing plant. The amount of assembly required in the assembly plant depends on the manufacturer. At Boeings manufacturing plant in South Carolina, they build the aircraft sections in different buildings, moving each section to the final assembly building to put all major assemblies together. For Airbus, “Sections of the aircraft have been manufactured in the UK, Germany, Spain and France before being transported to Toulouse for assembly”.…
