Book Synopsis Innovation, Survival and Performance of Canadian Manufacturing Plants by : John R. Baldwin
Download or read book Innovation, Survival and Performance of Canadian Manufacturing Plants written by John R. Baldwin and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the determinants of innovation and the role of innovation in productivity growth, shifts in market share and survival in the Canadian manufacturing sector. The paper presents a model that examines the effect of innovation on plant performance and plant survival. It uses a unique data set that allows us to develop a detailed time profile of plant performance both before and after the introduction of an innovation. We find strong evidence that labour productivity growth is faster and survival rates higher after the introduction of a process innovation. Process innovation is also linked to gain in market shares through its effect on productivity growth. In contrast, product innovation appears to have little impact on plant performance and a negative impact on plant survival. We find that R&D, technology competencies and past innovation are linked to higher rates of innovation. Previous nnovation experience is linked to innovation but previous growth is not.

Book excerpt: This paper examines the determinants of innovation and the role of innovation in productivity growth, shifts in market share, and survival in the Canadian manufacturing sector. It presents a model that examines the effect of innovation on plant performance and plant survival, using a unique data set that allows development of a detailed time profile of plant performance both before & after the introduction of an innovation. Both process innovation and product innovation are considered along with their linkages to labour productivity, survival rates, plant performance, and gain in market share. Relationships between innovation and research & development, technology competencies, and previous innovation & growth are also explored.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study reviews the importance of the manufacturing sector to the Canadian economy. The first part analyzes the sector in seven sections, each of which outlines a different thread related to sectoral performance: the presence of manufacturing industries in the Canadian economy, labour productivity in Canada and in comparison with other countries, employment performance, destinations of manufacturing shipments, production costs, and capital investment by industrial group. The second & final part attempts to explain the similarities & differences found in the performance of individual industries described in part one. It reports on the use of advanced technologies, summarizes connectedness in manufacturing, discusses innovation and human capital issues, and notes major challenges faced by the sector.

Book Synopsis Adjustment to International Competition by : Richard E. Caves
Download or read book Adjustment to International Competition written by Richard E. Caves and published by Economic. This book was released on 1990 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report builds on 2 types of research on the structure and performance of Canadian manufacturing industries. One line addresses industries of domestic producers who serve the small Canadian market in competition with imports and is concerned with the productive efficiency of these industries but not with their short-run responses to international competition. The other line concerns the short-run sensitivity of responses of the manufacturing industries' prices, output, and employment levels to disturbances, focused on responses to domestic disturbances but not international. Using annual data on many individual industries, the study builds a statistical model of adjustments to changes in international competition such as changes in prices and varieties of importable goods, and in Canadian tariffs and the exchange rate. It tracks the effects of those changes on the selling prices of Canadian producers, quantities of imports and exports, and the key input decisions of employment and capital expenditures. It draws conclusions about these adjustment processes for the typical manufacturing industry but also shows how these adjustments vary among sectors and types of industries.

Book excerpt: From the Executive Summary: The purpose of this study is to measure and analyse the recent performance of Canadian manufacturing and to examine the extent to which the recent weakness of this key sector of the Canadian economy reflects cyclical factors in Canada and other industrialized countries as opposed to structural problems which are long-term in nature. The analysis proceeds first at an aggregate level in which the performance of the manufacturing sector as a whole is viewed relative to the performance of the overall economy. Then the manufacturing sector is divided into 32 separate industries in order to get a clearer view of Canada's areas of strength and weakness within manufacturing.

Book Synopsis Innovation and Knowledge Creation in an Open Economy by : John R. Baldwin
Download or read book Innovation and Knowledge Creation in an Open Economy written by John R. Baldwin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-07-03 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of innovation - its intensity, the sources used for knowledge creation, and its impacts - is based on a comprehensive survey of innovation of Canadian manufacturing firms. Attention is paid to the different actors in the system, who both compete with and complement one another. The study investigates how innovation regimes differ across size of firm and across industries. Owing to the high degree of foreign investment in Canada, special attention is paid to the performance of foreign-owned firms. The innovation regime of Canadian innovators is compared with results of studies of other industrialized countries. The picture of a typical innovator is a firm that combines internal resources and external contacts to develop a set of complementary strategies. The study finds that innovating firms depend not only on R&D, but also on ideas and technology from various other sources, both internal and external to the firm.

Download or read book An Analysis of Canadian Manufacturing Productivity written by Harry H. Postner and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Introduction: There are two main purposes of this Study. The first is to develop a general model and methodology capable of identifying and measuring the sources of productivity growth for an industry. The second purpose is to apply the methodology in order to explain why productivity growth rates differ from industry to industry within the Canadian manufacturing sector. Productivity growth is analysed over the medium term by studying trend growth rates for periods of nine or ten years' duration. The manufacturing industries are examined at the two-digit Standard Industrial Classification.

Book excerpt: After discussing the impact of foreign ownership, the committee seems to have concluded that the industrial structure of Canada was a primary reason for poor R&D performance in Canada.20 A consensus seems to exist that the reason for poor aggregate R&D intensity in Canada is the structure of the economy (particularly the preponderance of natural resources) and a high degree of foreign ownership. [...] Hence, conceptually, to assess the impact of foreign ownership on aggregate Canadian R&D intensity would require examining the effect of both the intensity and the distribution of the amount of R&D done in Canada by foreign- controlled firms. [...] There has been a steady increase in the proportion of R&D that is financed from abroad, particularly in Canada and the U. K., as seen in Figure 8. On the other hand, the proportion of R&D financed from abroad in Finland is very low, implying that much of its large increase in R&D expenditures arose from domestic sources. [...] In the U. S. and Australia, following a dip in the early part of the 90s, there was a sharp rise in the share 39 The increase in Canada may reflect increased investment in motor vehicles discussed later. [...] The decline in the size of manufacturing industry would (at constant research intensity) have led, in addition, to a decline in manufacturing R&D as a share of GDP in Australia, Denmark, France, Germany, Japan, Sweden and the U. K. 20 of research done in the service sector.
