Q3: What accounts for these differences? How much of the difference is
inherent in the way each of the two companies competes? How much is
due strictly to differences in the efficiency of the operations?
Answer-
c) The efficiency of Sunnyvale was very low as it was producing 26000 defected
units in 1 million. There was quality issue which was leading to overall effect on
productivity and profitability decrement. If DJC comes to America and sets up a
plant with a very high efficiency, as they did in Kawasaki, American Connectors will
lose their business to DJC.ACC finance teams were also not allowing funds to
upgrade their technology. This would also affect the efficiency of the operations.
Further to this ACC organizational hierarchy was more inclined towards marketing
and engineering teams and lesser stress on production team which was different in
case of DJC which had equal stress on the production team; this was a motivational
factor for increase in productivity.
