Abstract

the aim of the study is to bring understanding or identifying organizations best practices. The challenge for most organizations is that they have to work within the context of preconceived notions as to what a best practice really means and the misconception of how it should be effectively deployed. A best practice, as we will soon learn, can have a significant impact on an organizations ability to improve performance within the steel development lifecycle and to deliver quality products on time and within budget. Unfortunately, it can also become that ill-fated silver bullet that fails to produce the anticipated or desired results. The way forward is for an organization to understand clearly how to recognize a best practice, what makes for successful execution and ultimately how to identify own best practices.
