Abstract

The 1980s and 1990s have been characterised by a move from self-contained manufacturing and service operations to large organisations (not necessarily under a single command or ownership) whose activities are integrated through the use of electronic communications and computers. These developments have not occurred overnight but are the result of a much longer evolution of the manufacturing and service industries.
