| Abstract | What is the source of global competitiveness in Japanese “process industry”? And how does its competitiveness relate with process architecture? It is hypothesized that a product with integral architecture tended to have high global competitiveness, and a product with modular architecture tended to have low one in Japan because Japanese manufacturers have integral capabilities. There has already been some empirical research (i.e., Ogawa, Shintaku, Yoshimoto, 2005; Fujimoto, Oshika, 2006; Fujimoto, Ge, Oh, 2006). However, this type of research has focused on assemble products like automobile and electronics industry, and rarely focused on material or equipment socalled “process industry” in spite that there has been many strong suppliers in Japan (Fujimoto & Kuwashima, 2002; Fujimoto, 2003). So, we attempt to research from process architecture based view about LCD panel and flat glass in the TFT-LCD industry. Our hypothesis is that above-mentioned about assemble products is also applied to material or equipment. However, it is thought that process architecture (not product architecture) is more important in process industry than in assemble industry. |
