The Role Of Concurrent Engineering Technique In Developing Oil Well Cement To Reduce Costs And Achieve Sustainable Competitive Advantage

Abstract

The research aims to demonstrate the role of concurrent engineering technology in providing an environmentally friendly product, because it is one of the most important technologies that have emerged as a result of work strategies that change rapidly with market requirements and the essence of the modern production process, through the manufacture of products that meet the desires of customers in the shortest possible time and at the lowest cost . To achieve this goal, the General Company for Southern Cement was selected as a research community and through one of its laboratories represented by (Babel Factory). The research reached several conclusions represented in the shift from sequential product development to concurrent product development, which enables it to respond quickly by reducing the time required for products to enter the market and adapt to changing work environments, and following concurrent engineering in product development is a shortcut to the product design and development process . The most important recommendations are the need to direct modern technologies to serve the environment in view of the trend of global interest in the environment due to environmental pollution and the scarcity of natural resources, especially scarce ones.
