解説
問 12
Incorrectア
Using mathematics, natural sciences, and the like to improve productivity is the idea behind OR (Operations Research) or IE (Industrial Engineering), not a description of MOT.
- イ
正解 MOT (Management of Technology) is a management approach that places technological innovation at the core of corporate strategy and effectively links the technologies a company already has, and those it will create in the future, to its business so as to lead to revenue and sustainable corporate growth. Therefore choice “イ”, which states “effectively link technological innovation to the company's own business to drive corporate growth”, is the appropriate purpose of MOT. The essence of MOT lies not in the superiority or inferiority of the technology itself, but in converting technology into business value and corporate growth.
Incorrectウ
Employees making organized efforts to improve product quality so as to raise the company's overall quality is a description of TQM (Total Quality Management), not the purpose of MOT.
Incorrectエ
Acquiring the necessary skills and knowledge from supervisors and others through actual work on the job so as to improve work-handling ability is a description of OJT (On-the-Job Training), which differs from MOT.
ここがポイント
- MOT (Management of Technology) is a management approach that links technological innovation to the company's own business to drive corporate growth and revenue.
- Distinguishing easily confused concepts: using mathematics and natural sciences = OR/IE, organized quality improvement = TQM, acquiring skills through actual work = OJT.
