A company should continuously adjust its objectives, activities and organization to the changing customer needs. The adjustment process may be done by a continuous process of comparing ones’ products, services and practice either with the strongest competitor or with those companies that are regarded as the industrial leaders. i.e. a relative measurement.
This paper will present the basic concepts of a system that construct and use the ATO concept. It will concentrate only on two, out of many, stages and methods: The setting of company level of competitiveness and computerized product.defnition and design.
A report on a project, that was carried on along the basic concepts, in electronic company will be given. It proved that savings of $11 million could have been made in a project of $15 Million. Product specifications that used to take several month, of negotiation with customers, can be made within a few days. Product design time was reduced to a few weeks.
