Phasing technology from 'product line management' to 'plant within a plant' system in hospitals

Article Abstract:

The 'plant within a plant' manufacturing approach is an extended concept of the focused factory introduced during the 1970s. It has been successfully applied to manufacturing industries. However, its application in the health care industry has not yet been considered. The adoption of the 'plant within a plant' concept by non-profit hospitals is examined.
