Introduction:
Analog Devices Inc. was established 1965 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was started by Ray Stata & Mathew Lorber. There were a leading manufacturer of integrated circuits that were used to convert analog and digital data form.
The company's principal products were divided among four classifications which were general-purpose, standard-function linear, special-purpose linear, Digital-signal processing ICs & Assembled products.
SLICS were the largest product segment for the company, accounting for 65 percent of total sales. ADI is one of the re-known and leading manufacturers of Integrated circuits. Also, ADI was one of the Technology leader and was first to market many innovative products.
To meet the needs of the changing market, management at ADI …show more content…
It helped in setting objectives and plans to reach the objectives.
3. Helped in measuring objectives set, organizational learning and to compare alternative practices
Limitations of half-life concept:
1. Dependency on multiple factors made it difficult to analyze the Half-life.
2. It did not always give a true and correct picture as it was based on factors which were historical in nature.
Implementation of half-life.
The Rate of decline of defect level is constant over time and with doubling of cumulative experience the unit cost drops by a constant percentage.
The half-life Concept generally deals with defects and then the Concept generally deals with cost.
The defect reduction owing to a root cause is being eliminated and subsequent tackling of the next root cause Cost reduction owing to the same action being performed repeatedly.
Ques 3: Identify the conflicts that exist between the QIP measures and the measures reported by the financial system. Which numbers should we believe? Can they be reconciled?
Ans. The major conflicts between the QIP and the financial measures were:
1. Heavily based on financial measures became the biggest drawback of ADI’s incentive and performance evaluation
