ABSTRACT
This
study presents bibliometrics on Paradigm in papers presented at the Production and Operation Management
Society (POMS) from 2000
to 2010, and establishes the profile of the authors and the theoretical
relationships present in those papers’ content. The portal of the Production and Operation Management
Society and the abstracts contained in each of the events of the period
were used, seeking to highlight the concept of Paradigm and its approaches. As
a result, the articles presented at the POMS from 2000 to 2010, at least three
out of the four hundred papers had the concept in its title or abstract,
besides being within the central arguments of these same items analyzed by this
study.
1.
INTRODUCTION
The
first edition of the POMS – Production Operation Management Society, took place
from 14th to 17th October 1990 in Washington, DC, the USA, with the proposal
that remains until the current edition, having as mission integration of
professionals concerned with finding solutions to problems of Production and
Operation Management. The organization was created by professional friends in
the U.S., Canada and Europe and in the first edition had approximately one thousand
members and the University of Baltimore was the first partner in this success
story. The purposes of the Society are: to extend and integrate knowledge that
contributes to the improved understanding and practice of production and
operations management (POM); to disseminate information on POM to managers,
scientists, educators, students, public and private organizations, national and
local governments, and the general public; and to promote the improvement of
POM and its teaching in public and private manufacturing and service
organizations throughout the world.
The
competition between companies in any sector of activity has become recurrent.
In search of improvements in technology management and production operation,
companies seek changes in the production process to generate good results and
this problem is not just theirs but of everyone who is involved in the process
and concerned with finding solutions that provide increased production with
quality and safety for workers and consumers. This concern was part of the
first letter sent to members by president Singhal (1990), who at the time
summoned not only people connected to the business world but also the
government, academic community and the press. The challenge was issued and the
community continues to grow and provide solutions to operation and production
management problems. The events since then were concerned with publishing
papers that provided solutions to such problems, breaking existing paradigms in
academic conferences concerned with content, very often inaccessible to the
novice researcher or the machine operator who is leading the process. The
administration takes care of objects and concepts of high complexity, whose
evidences often go unnoticed for those researchers who consider the discussion
of paradigms a private issue (LIMA, 2011). POMS events allowed researchers from
different lines of behavior and performance areas to expose the results of
their research regardless of whether they were against the prevailing current
of thought. That is, it allowed the paradigm shift in the discussion and
presentation of research results.
The
reconstruction of European and Japanese economies, the rapid technological
development, changes in consumer behavior, demand for products with higher
quality and lower cost, lower productivity caused by the depletion of the
organizational form of the work, forced the discontinuity of the paradigm of
mass production imposed by Ford and Taylor (SACOMANO; MARTINS, 1994). The
relationships between organizations and other social actors do not represent
only other structures resulting from their activities, but also define and
delimit their possibilities for action (MACHADO-DA-SILVA; GUARIDO FILHO;
ROSSONI, 2006). The paradigm is to break the dependence relation of production
between the actors involved, such as company and employee, for the processes
are changed and require less and less the physical presence of man to make the
product.
Society
before the rise of manufacturing entrepreneurship and workers, was not one of
independent people. Most people on the history were dependent and they did not
work for an organization, but to an owner (DRUCKER, 2011). With the expansion
of the relationship between company and employee, several management tools have
emerged to improve the performance and management process including:
reengineering, downsizing, outsourcing, empowerment, CRM – Customer
Relationship Management, Balanced Score Card (PRETTO; FILARDI; PRETTO, 2010).
This shows a paradigm shift in the establishment of a unit of measure of
performance of those involved and a change in strategy to improve business
results and not simply the replacement of that individual who was not
generating a satisfactory result.
The
exchange of knowledge of performance tools and the identification of the most
appropriate for a given situation arise in the research presented at
conferences like POMS in several years. This attends the two first objectives
established since the first conference in October 1990: to extend and integrate
knowledge that contributes to the improved understanding and practice of
production and operations management (POM) and to disseminate information on
POM to managers, scientists, educators, students, public and private
organizations, national and local governments, and the general public. The
theoretical contribution arises from an interest in exposing a problem,
hypotheses, methodology, arguments, and finally the solutions found. Variables,
constructs, concepts that explain the nature of social or individual phenomena
and the criteria for judging whether correct factors were included are: the
scope when all relevant factors are included and thrift when some factors are
excluded for adding little extra value to our understanding (WHETTEN, 2003).
Following the pursuit of the theory formation, the researcher's next step is to
check what relationships exist between the factors and establish a series of
questions so that responses are analyzed and can explain the involvement of the
concept and results obtained. The predominant concepts receive a strong
influence of the traditional scientific administration approach. Many emphasize
the importance of systemic thinking and continuous improvement (ANTONELLO;
GODOY, 2009).

RESEARCH
PROBLEM AND OBJECTIVE
The
aim of this study is to show the articles that addressed the issue paradigm
presented in the POMS – Production Operation Management Society in the period
from 2000 to 2010, trying to establish a relationship between the concept
paradigm and the content of the article under discussion. What are the concepts
involved in the content of the article? How is the paradigm concept presented
and what is the new interpretation to the problem studied? These are some of
the issues that this article shows from the themes and abstracts of articles
consulted. This is a bibliometric survey establishing the use of statistics to
illustrate the written communication in the POMS research presented at
conferences from 2000 to 2010.
Considering
the objectives defined by the designers of the POMS in the first edition in
Washington, DC, in 1990, and the context of the period analyzed in this paper,
we note that in the management of knowledge provided by the opportunity given
to researchers in the various conferences, it is clear the follow up of science
and technology expansion, making it important to assess these advances and to
determine the developments reached by different disciplines of knowledge (VANTI,
2002).

THEORETICAL
REFERENTIAL
The
bibliometric studies try to track and report the statistical knowledge of a
particular term or concept published in a source of information and
dissemination of knowledge. The term bibliometrics was first used in December
1969 by Fairthorne in his article published in the Journal of Documentation on
bibliometric description and it reported that the term had been involuntarily
given by Pritchard (in BROADUS, 1987) and Fairthorne had dedicated the term
Statistical Bibliography or Bibliometrics as statistical information about how
many times a particular concept of knowledge is reported or studied in a
scientific publication or class. However most definitions of the word have
been, like Pritchard's, wide-ranging and imprecise. Fairthorne, also in 1969,
said that it denoted “quantitative treatment of the properties of recorded
discourse and behaviour appertaining to it.” In view of the many possible kinds
of properties of recorded discourse, and of the countless sorts of behavior
that might pertain to it, this definition also seems unmanageably wide (BROADUS,
1987).
Paradigm
is a set of beliefs, values and theories accepted and shared by a community of
a given science and all share the same idea about how things are and behave
within a given subject according to the vision of those who analyze it. In this
sense, Khun (2004) admits that the scientific community knows how the world
works and seeks to demonstrate this knowledge, but researchers find
questionable results breaking the paradigm and new questions arise to be
researched and demonstrated. Therefore, we realized that the paradigm in shock
is explained and forms the new scientific knowledge.
The
choice between the various competing paradigms to take place in revolutionary
science is not made from empirical data, but not clearly answering the question
as it is, then the choice is made by one of the paradigms. The dominant
paradigms in management: reductionism, inability to deal with contradictions
and no appreciation of the subjectivity of human essential capacity of
interpreting reality; these three factors combined have led to instrumental
rationality taken as logic of life, to organizational behavior as human action,
to profit as profitability, to productivity as self-realization, to efficiency
as organizational relevance, and as work as employment (SERVA, DIAS;
ALPERSTEDT, 2010).
For
Morgan (1980) it is useful to start with the concept of paradigm made popular
Kuhn, although the concept has been subjected to a wide and confusing range of
interpretation. This is partly because Kuhn himself the used the paradigm
concept in not less than twenty-one different ways consistent with three broad
senses of the term: 1 – as a complete view of reality, or way of seeing; 2 – as
relating to the social organization of science in terms of schools of thought
connected with particular kinds of scientific achievements; 3 – as relating to
the concrete use of specific kinds of tools and texts for the process of
scientific puzzle solving.
Any
adequate analysis of the role of paradigms in social theory most uncover the
core assumptions that characterize and define any given world view, to make it
possible to grasp what is common to the perspectives of theorists whose work
may otherwise, at a more superficial level, appear diverse and wide ranging (MORGAN,
1980).
Such
efforts began sensitizing theorists to the notion of paradigms—the assumptions,
practices, and agreements among a scholarly community—and legitimizing less
mainstream alternatives. Although functionalism-positivism remains dominant,
theorists increasingly are grounding their work within more critical and interpretive
paradigms (LEWIS; GRIMES, 1999).
Lewis
and Grimes (1999) contributed a useful guide to exemplars, we distinguish among
three approaches: (1) multiparadigm reviews, (2) multiparadigm research, and
(3) metaparadigm theory building. They used the term multiparadigm to denote
disparate paradigmatic perspectives and metaparadigm to signify a more holistic
view that transcends paradigm distinctions to reveal disparity and
complementarity, view the Table 1.
The
table propouse multiparadigm approaches to reflexion and copies the authors
consider the critical self-reflection, however, should permeate the process.
For while multiparadigm techniques may help extend theorists’ peripheral vision
dramatically, resulting metaparadigm theory will have roots within The
theorists’ initial assumptions, requiring them to constantly question their
paradigmatic biases (LEWIS; GRIMES, 1999).
Paradigm
is also conceptual framework comparable to software whose functionality is addressed
to “different forms of data and different types of work, (where) different
conceptual frameworks are used to analyze and solve problems for modeling and
management of organizations” (CARAVANTES et al., 2005, p. 8 in LIMA, 2011).
An
understanding of the roles of paradigm and perspectives in the body of
knowledge such as actuarial science must, however, take cognizance not only of
the individual’s self and circumstance, but also in the social institutions
that govern or influence the formation of that knowledge (ACTUARIAL SOCIETY
ORG, 2006).

METHODOLOGY
AND RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT
POMS
– Production Operation Management Society – the purposes of the Society are: to
extend and integrate knowledge that contributes to the improved understanding
and practice of production and operations management (POM); to disseminate
information on POM to managers, scientists, educators, students, public and
private organizations, national and local governments, and the general public;
and to promote the improvement of POM and its teaching in public and private
manufacturing and service organizations throughout the world.
Bibliometrics
is a set of empirical laws and principles that contribute to the establishment
of the statistics of how many times a particular concept is published in a
scientific medium. In this sense, this research was developed to identify the
statistical disclosure or discussion of the concept paradigm in POMS
conferences held in the period from 2000 to 2010.

With
the aim of the conference POMS defined since its inception, Table 2 shows the
year, the city and the focus of most articles published in the congress. The
researchers tried to disseminate their work in order to contribute to the
discussions and development of new research that would allow the strengthening
of the topic.
In
this paper the authors analyzed the information from the abstracts and full
papers to check the concentration of information conveyed by the researchers
and subjects are defined in Table 2, grouped by general themes. This survey
allowed the definition of the researchers on the purpose of this paper, which
is to show in bibliometric study the statistics of discussion of the concept
Paradigm in the POMS conferences held between 2000 and 2010.
Articles
submitted and approved by the evaluators of the POMS between 2000 and 2010 with
the concept Paradigm being quoted and discussed with the sense of beliefs,
values and accepted and shared theories by a community of a given science or
the same meaning that Kuhn admitted when he said that the scientific community
knows the meaning of the concepts and the sense that they are applied in
solving problems, are also inserted in the articles analyzed that were
presented at the POMS from 2000 to 2010, except 2006 which was not included by
the authors because their data were limited and meaningless for the purpose of
this research, which is to build a bibliometric evaluation of the concept
Paradigm on the papers presented at the POMS from 2000 to 2010.

The
bibliometrics of the concept Paradigm shown in Table 3 is most evident in
congresses held in Vancouver, Dallas, La Jolla and Cancun. Out of all the
congresses analyzed by the authors, Vancouver represents 19.72% of the
citations of the concept Paradigm and Dallas ranks second with 12.68%. As the
bibliometric work is to establish a statistics of the knowledge of a concept or
theory discussed in scientific circles, this paper shows that the concept
Paradigm is being discussed at least 4.23% in one of the POMS conferences held
from 2000 to 2010.

Consideration of process in operations strategy has changed little
since Skinner's original prescriptive model. This was firmly rooted in the
dominant top down, rational corporate planning paradigm of that era. In
contrast, corporate strategists have subsequently broadened their thinking
about the strategy process to develop both descriptive and prescriptive
models. |

Webcasting or push
technology automatically sends information from the producer of information to the server or client computer of the subscriber.
This paradigm is different from the traditional method of accessing web
content - a method which requires an individual to seek out information via a
search engine or URL. Webcasting does not require active participation by the
viewer and in this sense it is more like the television mode of information
delivery. |

The purpose of this work is the
conception analysis about environmental management and ecomanagement. These two
conceptions are basics to building sustainable development, because they are
the new enterprise strategy of the industrial world. This new paradigm,
industrial ecology, has to be able to change the human social organization. |

Quality of healthcare delivery is a very difficult paradigm to measure
quantitatively and it was thought it might be impossible to measure it at
all. Donabedian outlined the classical three categories of measurement of
quality of healthcare delivery namely structure of the healthcare
institution, process of care and outcome of the patient (Donabedian, 1988). |

The increasing usage of contract
manufacturing and outsourcing, coupled with globalization, requires firms to extend their control to
second-tier suppliers. Previous literature either focused on inventory or had examined contracting with the
first tier only. In this paper we use a principal-agent paradigm to analyze contracts along a three-tier
supply chain when both the second and third tier affect the final product’s
quality. |

The leather industry is relevant
for the Brazilian economy, considering that it represented, in 2006, 1.61% of
the country's total exports. Acknowledging the growing trend of consumers opting for goods
with social-environmentally responsible production processes, it is essential that companies start adapting to this new paradigm to
stay in the market |

Modern competition is being fought “supply chain versus supply chain”
rather than “firm versus firm” (Boyer, Frohlich, & Hult, 2005; Ketchen
& Guinipero, 2004; Ketchen & Hult, 2007). This shift of focus from
individual firms competing to supply chains competing has been one of the
most significant paradigm shifts in business management (Chen et al., 2004a;
Lambert & Cooper, 2000). |

Innovation and new products have become increasingly
important as competitive factors for companies to achieve long-term and
sustainable advantages. However, escalating uncertainty and complexity in
business environment impose the development of new vision, and appropriate
approaches such as integrated models in order to shed more light on
successful product innovation paradigms. |

RESEARCH
RESULTS
The
research was carried out considering the articles that presented the concept Paradigm
at the POMS events from 2000 to 2010, with the exception of 2006, whose data
did not show consistency for inclusion in the final analysis. Information was
obtained mainly from the Internet portal of the POMS of the referent year and
after data analysis we identified the following articles particularly relevant
to answer the question of this paper, which is the bibliometrics of concept
Paradigm at the POMS editions from 2000 to 2011, as seen above in the
description of the year it was presented, title, author and principal portion
of the article that cites the concept of this research.
Table
4 shows the main articles selected for this study because they represent the
application of the concept Paradigm as the beliefs, values and definitions
accepted by a community and that deserve to be studied and evaluated again
according to the changes happening in the object of study. The articles cited
in the table address this view regardless of their country of origin, their
beliefs or their training, since they start from a knowledge of a science that
belongs to the concept studied and showed with the results of his research new
concepts and definitions from the observed events in their study objectives.

FINAL
THOUGHTS
This
research was conducted in order to identify the use and discussion of the
concept Paradigm on the papers presented at the conferences POMS-Production and
Operation Management Society between 2000 and 2011, defined as a bibliometrical
study of these articles. As reported in the section that dealt with the
theoretical framework, the term bibliometrics was first used in December 1969
by Fairthorne in his article published in Journal of Documentation on
bibliometric description and it reported that the term had been involuntarily
given by Pritchard (in BROADUS, 1987) and Fairthorne had used the term
statistical Bibliography or Bibliometrics as statistical information about how
many times a particular concept of knowledge is reported or studied in a
scientific publication or class. Today bibliometric studies are important for
researchers to identify the trend and scientific interest of the class about a
particular concept. As the concept becomes more discussed, it shows that the
scientific class is concerned with going deeper in that discussion and making
new discoveries and applications at the same time that it shows the evolution
of science in a given period on a particular fact.
In
this sense, the present study tried to identify the bibliometrics of the term
Paradigm on the articles selected and presented at the POMS conferences from
2000 to 2010, being characterized that the term in applied human sciences is
still applied and discussions are held to seek new applications and directions
setting surrounding the case analyzed to form a theory of application of the
concept Paradigm.
As a
result, the articles presented at the POMS from 2000 to 2011, at least three
out of the four hundred papers had the concept in its title or abstract,
besides being within the central arguments of these same items analyzed by this
study.
When
it comes to identifying researchers who applied the concept in their research,
there is a predominance of Brazilians, followed by Americans and British.
As
proposal for future works, further studies can be carried out to identify the
changes in the scientific field in which the concept was applied, for we
realize that during the research in which the concept Paradigm was applied the
authors who attended the POMS lived a reality with several questions which they
tried to answer and after the survey was carried out an evaluation could be
made to verify the changes in that environment in which the analyzed event
occurred.
