In this context, a concurrent strategy can contribute to find compromise solutions with product diversity and production effectiveness.
When product diversity is high, though, especially in production of unique items or with multiperiod production processes (as in construction, shipbuilding, and design and assembly of large, one-of-a-kind machines), operational control systems will be difficult to develop.
The biotechnological production process may show variability, which can introduce product diversity, isoforms, and closely related degradation products [ 3, 4].
More specifically, manufacturers with more efficient line flows have different ratios of supervisory personnel to the work force, different levels of authority, less product diversity, and greater product standardization than manufacturers with more flexible production process structures.
The product diversity probably resulted from the ambiguous acceptor recognition.
Typically, marketing wants more product diversity, while operations wants less.
Product diversity is a recognized antecedent of ABC adoption.
Joel Girsky, the chairman and chief executive, attributed the growth to healthy industry demand, stable prices, product diversity and market penetration.
