일본 중소제조업의 기술전략과 유형에 관한 연구 : 금형제조업의 기술축적 과정을 중심으로 = Technology Strategy & Types in Japanese Small & Medium Sized Firms

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

They say that in Japanese small & medium manufacturing firms core technology has been accumulated. On this paper, I tried to analyze the fundamental structure and study how to have accumulated core technology in die & mold firms. Since 1985, when the yon was going strength against the dollar, die & mold firms have received a regular order-dependence and their transaction with ordering industries have kept multiple-pyramidal structure.
Under this structure, the ordering enterprises asked the die & mold firms for reduction of delivery, products of high-precise die & mold, development of products. Small & medium sized firms have to introduce advanced facilities for production. So it even happened that some firms got to be superior to ordering firms in production facilities, precise manufacturing, production capacity.
Training & education was needed for effective use of advanced facilities. They educated their employees through off-the-job-training at the beginning, but as the time went, they became to choose the way of on-the-job-training instead of Off-JT. As micro electronic facilities was progressing, new skilled-knowledge was asked not only scientific knowledge but also tacit knowledge became to be very important.
On the other hand, the high-developed facilities brought the reduction of laborers, but at the same time, it brought organizational intelligence that consisted of technical experts.
Technological strategy was influenced by the change of basic structure like this. It seems that the small & medium sized firms don't depend on existing skills that are based on production management. They tend to choose cost curtailment and development of new products by introducing new technologies.
Since strong yon, we can say that Japanese small & medium sized firms are classified into four types, according to technology strategy and the dependence rate of orders received. Small-scale and Subsidiary types tend to be changed over to Innovative and Participant types. I'm sure that bipolar phenomenon like this in Japanese small & medium sized firms, will be accelerate more and more from now on.
