Operations management techniques become the core of what excellence in means of manufacturing lies in the case of all industries in to manufacturing domain. The different systems and processes used in organizations have evolved and build on solid foundations of various inventions and innovations in techniques and process involved in creating a most accepted and applicable solution which will result in 'value' to the organizations. There has been existing research and literature pertaining to this topic is widely used as a base for researchers in developing new concepts and processes. This research paper aims to explore the existing research in the field of operations management from an academic point of view as well as aims at providing potential scope of academic inquiry in relations to the topic. Various disciplines of operations management such as ERP, TOC, JIT, VAE, and Lean Sig Sigma, etc. are being analyses and further opportunities in those areas are being suggested. Also an effort is being made to enquire and analyze about the possibility of an integrated approach being proposed earlier, if not aids to suggest on the logical development which could be associated with implementation of operations management in manufacturing industries as well as service organizations.

Abstract


Operations management techniques become the core of what excellence in means of manufacturing lies in the case of all industries in to manufacturing domain. The different systems and processes used in organizations have evolved and build on solid foundations of various inventions and innovations in techniques and process involved in creating a most accepted and applicable solution which will result in 'value' to the organizations. There has been existing research and literature pertaining to this topic is widely used as a base for researchers in developing new concepts and processes. This research paper aims to explore the existing research in the field of operations management from an academic point of view as well as aims at providing potential scope of academic inquiry in relations to the topic. Various disciplines of operations management such as ERP, TOC, JIT, VAE, and Lean Sig Sigma, etc. are being analyses and further opportunities in those areas are being suggested. Also an effort is being made to enquire and analyze about the possibility of an integrated approach being proposed earlier, if not aids to suggest on the logical development which could be associated with implementation of operations management in manufacturing industries as well as service organizations.
