Role of Industrial Engineers in Technology Commercialisation

Conference Paper presented at 5th International Conference of AIMS

Abstract

Industrial Engineering has its primary focus on design of work systems integrating man, machine and material. Industrial engineering department is expected to develop manual elements in man-machine interaction that will make the system productive and the man comfortable. Each time a new technology is to be commercialized by an organization, industrial engineers have to understand the technology first and then assess the human involvement required to come out with design of manual elements required in the production process. The paper is an attempt to examine the existing literature in this area of industrial engineering practice.
