Abstract:

The combination of globalisation, new management thinking and technology creates vast new open deregulated markets, wired together by a converging information highway. As new and transformed organisations are re-writing the rules of business, new ways are being sought to address the challenge of this new knowledge era. This paper presents industrial engineering disciplines required to deal with emerging business models in service industries.
