Regional Development Strategies

This paper, using the manufacturing industry of Peninsular Malaysia as a case study, reveals that the common assertion of a positive relationship between labour productivity and urban size may have exceptions, particularly in developing economies. Attempts are made to explain such a discrepancy and to examine the problem of regional development strategies and spatial underdevelopment in a Third World context. It is argued that a more careful approach to the conceptualization of spatial structure and processes is needed if it is to contribute to the formation of a regional development theory from which appropriate regional development strategies can be derived.

Abstract: Lean manufacturing has been one of the most standard method in the manufacturing and service industry for elimination of waste. Every manufacturing industry has to put in continuous effort for its survival in the current impulsive and competitive economy. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the adoption of lean manufacturing tools and techniques in the manufacturing industries. This paper is based on actual implementation of lean manufacturing techniques. It focuses on the execution of flow from the start until the end of the implementation, types of analysis and tools applied, evaluation methods and how the industry benefited from the implementation. In this case study we particularly focused on Shop floor management, Quality Management (QM), Supplier and Customer Management (SCM) and Workforce Management (WM). After going through various testing on implementation of Lean Manufacturing principles in Micro Small medium Enterprise (MSME), researcher studied thoughts of some author where they discussed pragmatic problems they overcome while implementing lean principles in developing economies MSME. At the end, the result shows that there is monthly increment in capital productivity and labour productivity. And decrement in inhouse rejection, breakdown hours and customer complaint from the implementation of lean.

Regional Development Strategies

Тhe creation and development of the digital economy in the regions of Russia is a new factor in their socio-economic development. This should be reflected in near future in the strategies of socio-economic development of regions. In the Russian Federation, at present, for developing and evaluating the implementation of the socio-economic development strategy of the region, a universal methodology has not been developed, and the standard approaches for implementing strategic planning have been adapted from the management of corporate structures.The purpose of the article is to test the methodology of statistical evaluation of the socio-economic development of the region in the digital environment. The methodological basis of the study are: the general statistical method of dynamic standards, index and coefficient analysis, the method of pairwise comparisons. The scientific novelty of the presented results are the author’s methodological developments: the system of indicators of the socio-economic development of the region in the digital environment and the regulatory assessment model. The practical significance of the research results lies in the possibility of applying the author’s assessment methodology for monitoring regional development strategies.The creation of integral statistical measures (models) for monitoring traditional and new factors of the region’s development will provide solutions to their quantitative assessment, allow clarify both the planning and implementation stages of the region’s shortcomings and problems, ensure the implementation of the principle of integrated socioeconomic development of the region, contribute to enhancing the consistency of the objectives of regional development strategies, it will allow diagnostics of the development of the digital economy and develop new strategic orientations at the regional level, which in turn will make it possible to develop organizational mechanisms for involving people in the region in resolving issues of territorial strategic development.
