Tiivistelmä
The creation of Radical Manufacturing Technology Innovations (RMTI) is necessary for the renewal and enhanced productivity of manufacturing processes. There is a need to understand different strategies for managing the front end of RMTI in manufacturing firms. We conducted an embedded multiple-case study in three firms with different RMTI strategies. The results show different extents of formal roles, involved departments and documentation in RMTI, and differences in organizing the RMTI front end. All case companies had carried out the front end of RMTI successfully and repeatedly. The contributions include alternative strategies for managing the front end of RMTI successfully.
