Capital equipment is a critical component of almost every industry and is used to create valuable goods and services for the end customers. However, the initial cost of acquisition and subsequent running costs associated with these equipment pose a significant barrier to young businesses. While servitizing capital equipment is a proven method of increasing access to these machineries in many high-income countries (HICs), the benefits of servitization often do not extend to low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). In this thesis, I examine the capital equipment ecosystems of both HICs and LMICs, with a focus on the stakeholders involved. I also explore both the challenges facing equipment businesses when operating in LMICs and the innovative solutions being implemented by successful LMIC service businesses. Based on these examples, I offer recommendations for budding service-based equipment business that are working to improve affordable access to capital equipment in resource-constrained settings.

As companies outsource more manufacturing and design responsibilities to external vendors and therefore become less vertically integrated, the role of supply chain management becomes increasingly complex. Its role is particularly difficult when product generation follows a serial process flow, with the supply chain function residing at the end and where it inherits poorly defined supplier relationships. A more integrated approach that seeks to proactively design the supply chain during product generation is required. Central to this integrated approach is the timely exchange of information both within the company, between R&D and procurement, and external to the company, between procurement and its suppliers. The timing of the information flow is crucial. It needs to occur before the company is locked into a single supplier and when its bargaining power is the highest. It also needs to occur in a manner that does not slow down the product development process. In practice, that means that specific information needs to be exchanged and committed to prior to supplier selection. Ultimately, the information exchange described in this thesis leads to improved supplier relations that enable the company to shift its procurement practices from the tactical approach of buying materials to the strategic approach of buying supply services. The research for this thesis was conducted at a partner company of the Leaders for Manufacturing (LFM) program. The company manufactures test equipment used in the semiconductor industry. Due to the highly cyclical and unpredictable nature of this industry, supply chains that can guarantee responsiveness and availability are desirable. The supply chain design recommendations proposed in this thesis are based on an analysis of a recent product generation program at the company. By continuing to implement these recommendations, the company should benefit from shorter product development cycle times, smoother production ramps, improved customer service levels and lower sourcing costs.

Composite airplane manufacturing requires the use of autoclaves to cure composite materials in order to create durable, lightweight parts for use in airplanes. The large size, complexity and utility consumption of this equipment makes it an ideal starting place for cost optimization. Cost modeling and the framework created by this research provide input to understand the cost impact of the complex decision between multiple part capacity and single part capacity autoclaves. The results of this research include the identification of cost drivers for the autoclave equipment as focus areas for future cost reduction efforts. Additionally, wait time modeling illustrates how multiple capacity autoclaves increase work in progress and queue lengths and how to assign costs based on the impact of batching to production flow. The framework and analysis also show cost sensitivity to offloading parts and changes in production rates by using linear optimization algorithms to evaluate different scenarios. The framework is extendable to other capital equipment with complex tradeoffs by serving as a starting point for a data driven understanding of costs from recurring, non-recurring and production flow factors.

Abstract:
Energy conservation, the improvement of energy efficiency, is recognised as an important part of energy policy. This thesis examines the potential for conservation investment and possible energy savings, in part of the UK industrial sector. Assessments of the extent and type of energy conservation activity to date, both investments and energy management, within the brewing, malting, distilling and dairy sectors are made. Achievements to date affect future potentials. In the light of a model of technical change related to energy conservation several potentials are defined. The inter-related problems of estimating or measuring these and measuring performance in energy management are discussed. Some estimates of potentials, with explicit assumptions, are made for the four sectors studied. As any definition or measurement of potential is arbitrary, processes of change are also examined. A soft systems model of necessary activities in energy management is advanced and used to explore managerial barriers to profitable conservation investments in companies studied. Managerial factors for promoting successful energy management are discussed. Economic barriers to change are explored by profitability modelling for several energy conservation techniques used within the four sectors, including heat pumps and combined heat and power. The approach used throughout has been systematic and on several levels.

The Capital Equipment Procurement group of Intel Corporation is responsible for developing and procuring the semiconductor processing capital equipment that is used throughout all of the company's development and manufacturing facilities. The semiconductor industry is faced with rapid technology change, increase in the complexity of the manufacturing process, and high cost of capital. In this challenging environment, the group is concerned with the following two issues required to maintain their leadership position in the industry. First is the need to evaluate risk earlier in the capital equipment specification and development cycle to ensure that the semiconductor processing capital equipment is developed on schedule (on-line, on-time) at an affordable cost. A previous model developed and used in the manufacturing readiness phase of process development serves as the basis for a new risk assessment approach. Modifications, including new risk categories, criteria, and processes enable the new model to be applied earlier, in the technology development phase. Second is the need for a more accurate cost model to capture the costs of new processes that employ equipment from existing processes at Intel. As Intel faces increasing cost pressure on some of the new commodity products it is developing, it must increase equipment reuse in its new process designs. A target costing model is developed that first sets target and baseline costs, and then tracks progress from the baseline cost until the target cost is achieved. This model is used to closely manage various cost reduction programs or projects being undertaken in its process development organization. The overall theme of this thesis is to demonstrate how these two program management systems can be used to manage
(cont.) the development of new manufacturing equipment such as needed in the semiconductor and other capital intensive industries.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis addresses the capital replacement modelling problems associated with a mixed, or inhomogeneous, fleet and also takes account of the fleet size problem. Applications considered relate to a fleet of buses and a fleet of medical equipment. The initial chapters introduce the notion of capital replacement modelling and review previous work in the field, as well as reviewing the fleet size problem. Replacement policies are also put in the context of the fleet rather than the context of a 'typical plant'. In the third chapter, we present our first attempt to model capital replacement with variable fleet size over a finite planning horizon. A two cycle model is developed in which the notion of penalty cost for breakdown is introduced. This cost is incurred when demand is not met. To take account of the cost of unmet demand, a simple failure model for plant is proposed. The replacement model is applied to a fleet of ventilators in an intensive care unit of a hospital. In the fourth chapter we develop various models for the case of replacement of a sub-fleet within a mixed fleet. These models themselves have variable finite planning horizon of variable length and build on developments described earlier in the thesis. Other aspects such as the increased cost of sub-optimal policy due to delayed replacement, smaller replacement sub-fleet etc. are also considered. The models developed in chapter 4 are applied, in the following chapter, to a fleet of buses operated by a Malaysian inter-city bus company. Sensitivity analysis on different factors is also carried out. Finally the sensitivity of optimal decision policy to the choice of the replacement model is described in the context of the bus application.

Abstract:
The article pays attention to the relation between capital equipment of labor and wage levels on the example of the Czech regions. Its main aim is to assess the relationship of the capital equipment of labor (expressed in terms of foreign direct investment and hours worked) to the wage level using correlation analysis, as well as the relationship of the capital equipment of labor and productivity in the regions of the Czech Republic. In addition, the validity of the relation “labor productivity is higher than the wage level” is verified using a comparison of standardized values of the indicators. The results show a high spatial dispersion of foreign direct investment in the Czech Republic, caused mainly by the Prague region. The positive correlation between the capital equipment of labor and wage levels, but also productivity, is statistically significant in the Czech regions. The problem of most Czech regions is the situation when the wage level exceeds the productivity level. Thus, the capital equipment of labor should firstly have a positive effect on the unit performance of labor, which would be rightly followed by increasing wages.

Full text
Abstract:
Since many renewable energy technologies use low cost or free primary energy sources such as solar insolation or wind, the capital cost of conversion equipment can become the dominant factor in determining economic feasibility. A natural approach to lowering the capital cost per unit of electricity is to strive for high efficiency equipment, i.e., increase the amount of electricity produced. Another approach is to seek out low cost conversion technologies, i.e., lower the capital cost. Capital equipment costs must be significantly lower than currently available off-the-shelf technologies to make solar power generally attractive economically for small-scale electricity generation. One potential low capital cost energy conversion technology is the liquid piston Stirling engine. A necessary design component for liquid piston Stirling engines is estimation of the frictional losses in the oscillating liquid columns. While frictional losses for fully developed laminar and turbulent pipe flow are characterized quite completely, average frictional loss factors for the continually starting and stopping liquid flow in oscillating columns are less complete. Direct measurements of frictional loss using a log-decrement method are reported in the paper. Measurements were completed for a variety of piping and tubing sizes and configurations. It was found that liquid volume correlated damping coefficient data well. A comparison with an equivalent fully developed laminar flow damping coefficient is presented.

Abstract:
This study leveraged existing data infrastructure and relationships from the Feed the Future Senegal Naatal Mbay (“flourishing agriculture”) project, funded by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by RTI International from 2015 to 2019. The research informed and empowered farmer organizations to track and respond to rural households in 2020 as they faced the COVID-19 pandemic. Farmer organizations, with support from RTI and local ICT firm STATINFO, administered a survey to a sample of 800 agricultural households that are members of four former Naatal Mbay–supported farmer organizations in two rounds in August and October 2020. Focus group discussions were conducted with network leadership pre- and post–data collection to contextualize the experience of the COVID-19 shock and to validate findings. The results showed that farmers were already reacting to the effects of low rainfall during the 2019 growing season and that COVID-19 compounded the shock through disrupted communications and interregional travel bans, creating food shortages and pressure to divert seed stocks for food. Food insecurity effects, measured through the Household Food Insecurity Access Scale and cereals stocks, were found to be greater for households in the Casamance region than in the Kaolack and Kaffrine regions. The findings also indicate that farmer networks deployed a coordinated response comprising food aid and access to personal protective equipment, distribution of short-cycle legumes and grains (e.g., cowpea, maize) and vegetable seeds, protection measures for cereals seeds, and financial innovations with banks. However, food stocks were expected to recover as harvesting began in October 2020, and the networks were planning to accelerate seed multiplication, diversify crops beyond cereals, improve communication across the network. and mainstream access to financial instruments in the 2021 growing season. The research indicated that the previous USAID-funded project had likely contributed to the networks’ COVID-19 resilience capacities by building social capital and fostering the new use of tools and technologies over the years it operated.
