5. MICMAC Analysis
MICMAC stands for Matrice d’Impacts croises-multipication appliqu´ean classment (cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification) .It was developed by Michel Godet and JC Duperrin in 1973 to analyze the driving power and the dependence power of the barriers in order to find the most important barriers within the system .The MICMAC principle is based on the multiplication properties of matrices. The purpose of a MICMAC analysis is to analyze the driver power and dependency of the barriers (Raj et al., 2008; Govindan et al., 2012). This is done to identify the key barriers that drive the system. Based on their driving power and dependence power, the barriers have been classified into four categories as follow: …show more content…
The barriers impose considerable challenges for manufacturing/maintenance managers to implement CMS. These barriers are analyzed through ISM approach. The barriers were segregated to determine the driving barrier (which helps to achieve other barriers) and dependent barriers (which are achieved by driving and linkage barriers). CMS barriers have been analyzed through MICMAC analysis (based on their driving power and dependence power).The important significations appearing from this analysis are as follows:
1. The driver-dependence diagram shows that there is no autonomous barrier .This means no barrier can be disconnected from the system and all the barriers are important for management consideration. 2. Dependent barriers are ‘Manager Resistance’ (4), ‘Worker resistance’ (5), ‘Lack of training in the use of G.T techniques’ (6), Manufacturing Process’ (7) & ‘Factory Floor Layout’ (9). These barriers are weak drivers and strongly depend on the other barriers. The management should focus on tackling the root cause of these barriers.
3. There is no linkage barrier. Linkage barriers have strong driving as well as strong dependence …show more content…
Barriers like Lack of knowledge about GT principles & techniques’ (1), ‘Lack of funds’ (2), ‘Influence of trade unions’ have high driving power and weak dependence power. Hence, these barriers can be referred as “Key Barriers”. These barriers help to achieve other barriers mostly. These barriers occupy bottom level at ISM hierarchy.6. Barriers like ‘Manager Resistance’ (4), ‘Worker resistance’ (5), ‘Lack of training in the use of G.T techniques’ (6),’Manufacturing Process,’ (7) have strong dependence power and weak driving power. So, these barriers are influenced by other barriers most. These barriers occupy top level at ISM
