För att företag ska fortsätta vara konkurrenskraftiga i dagens turbulenta samhälle krävs att de utvecklar både sina produkter och deras organisation.Något som har fått större och större fokus på senare år är att fokusera på att kvalitetssäkra både processer och produkter för att minska kostnader.Syftet med examensarbetet har varit att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar tillförlitligheten av processen för avvikelsehantering inom producerande företag.Projektet genomfördes på BAE Systems Hägglunds, ett företag med stor kundanpassning, för att förbättra kvaliteten på deras process för avvikelsehantering i monteringen.I ett första skede i projektet kartlades hur BAE arbetar i dagsläget.Detta gjordes med hjälp av att intervjua personer som dagligen använder processen samt en workshop för att ta fram en processkarta.Genom att studera befintlig litteratur inom området skapades bättre kunskap om vilka faktorer som är viktiga vid kvalitetsarbete och avvikelsehantering.I analysen jämfördes litteraturen med hur företag arbetar för att identifiera förbättringsområden.Rekommendationerna som delgavs företag rör främst att införa gemensamma rutiner över hela företaget för hur avvikelser registreras i deras affärssystem.En sådan rutin var att införa ett klassificeringssystem för alla avdelningar istället för de tre klassificeringssystemen som finns i dagsläget.En annan var att standardisera vilka informationsfält som skulle fyllas i för att kvaliteten på avvikelserna skulle bli tillförlitlig. Det togs även fram tre nyckeltal för att mäta processen i framtiden för att se om den förbättrats. Långsiktiga rekommendationer blev att se över ansvarsfördelningen för respektive avdelning.Detta för att eventuellt kunna avskaffa roller som är överflödiga och att ge personalen mer ansvar för ärenden de registrerar.

Two elementary schools are now being built in Gråbo (in the municipality of Lerum),Röselidsskolan and Ljungviksskolan, which are both designed with solar thermalcollectors for the schools domestic water heating. During the summer while thelargest amount of solar heat can be generated, the activity hence the domestic wateruse in the schools are heavily reduced. Both schools are connected to the local districtheating system which makes it possible to use the solar collectors to deliver heat tothe district heating.The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the two systems mentioned above and todetermine which system is more suitable to apply on a school. The building whichconditions were used for this evaluation is Röselidsskolan.A solar heating plant of each system type was dimensioned from the expected andknown conditions of the building. The purpose with the dimensioning was to makethe solar plants replace the ordinary energy source as much as possible.

Vattenfall Heat AB is a district heat provider in Drefviken, but has yet to establish any cooling systems in this area. This thesis examines the potential client base within the area today and over the coming 20 years. The feasibility of the most common cooling technologies is evaluated and results show a total potential for an installed capacity of 30 MW providing 50 GWh of cooling per year. One of the examined areas shows good prospect for heat driven absorption chillers during the summer months when the heat load is limited..

Studie redogör för ekonomiska tolkningar av väntetider och väntelistor inom hälso- och sjukvården i syfte att utröna om det finns någon entydig sådan tolkning. Vidare diskuteras den utvidgade vårdgarantin som infördes i november 2005 och eventuella fördelningsimplikationer till följd av det väntetidstak som garantin innebär. Studien baseras på erfarenheter från tidigare forskning. Ett urval representativa studier presenteras och analyseras i syfte att återge de speglingar av väntetider och väntelistor som dominerar den hälsoekonomiska debatten. Väntetider och väntelistor kan tolkas som en jämviktsskapande fördelningsmekanism mellan utbud och efterfråga då förseningar i vårdkonsumtionen medför att nyttan av vårdåtgärden minskar.

Social media constitutes an increasing part of organizations and businesses today, regardlessif its segment is B2B (Business to business) or B2C (Business to consumer). The use ofsocial media has been self-evident for many companies, especially throughout the B2C area.The study examined attitudes towards Web 2.0 and social media in the B2B-segment, andwhat advantages and disadvantages that might exist with the use of the implementation. Inorder to answer the research question a qualitative case study on the company IFS (Industrialand Financial Systems) was made..

Banks carry a great responsibility when it comes to the financial systems in our society. Disturbance in the credit system affects both lender and borrower. All financial institutions must therefore carefully estimate their risk exposure. This assessment enables them to cover themselves from losses with appropriate capital buffers as main guardian. In order to prevent bank crises and also to maintain financial stability in general, new regulations concerning analysis and preventive actions were introduced on the 1st of February 2007.

Examensarbete har utförts för AIAB DC Systems i Karlstad.Vår uppgift gick ut på att göra ett övervakningssystem för DC-system. Enheten skall användas för att övervaka isolerade DC-system avseende spänningsnivåer och isolation samt larma vid fel. Tidigare har man haft ett analogt system ute på marknaden men nu vill man ha ett digitalt processorbaserat system.Vi har använt oss av en 8-bitars RISC-processor. Programmeringen har gjorts i assembler med hjälp av ett utvecklings-kit och sköter logiken för övervakningen. Programmet manövreras med två tryckknappar och en display.Programmet vi har tagit fram behöver kompletteras med vissa funktioner.

The thesis aims to describe the current sales climate in the context of complex sales in business-to-business. The purpose is to increase the clients knowledge of sales and test the clients hypothesis that the sales climate is changing from Solution Selling to Insight Selling, further the thesis aims to contribute to the scientific debate of sales. Solution Selling is characterized, as the name suggest, by selling of solution to the customers needs. With Insight Selling the seller has a provocative approach towards the customer and the seller is searching for customers in the need of change. This is a qualitative study conducted with eight interviews and one focus group.

The following essay is a study of the theatre-play Min Arm, a translation and performance by Per Lasson for Fria Teatern in Stockholm 2009-2010. Actor, director and playwright Tim Crouch wrote the original script My Arm in English in 2003.With basis in intermedial theory, as defined by Jörgen Bruhn, as well as Hans-Thies Lehmann?s theory on post-dramatic theatre this study investigates the meaning-building processes in Min Arm as a theatrical performance. Concepts of the difference between stage play and performance text are borrowed from and inspired mainly by Eli Rozik?s Generating Theatre Meaning.

This report describes the construction work of a radar antenna for the radar systemCARABAS. CARABAS is a long wave airborne ground radar that has been developed bySAAB Microwave Systems and will now be mounted on a small helicopter, Schweizer 300.The antenna should be able to fold up and down. When the radar is in use the antenna islowered and under transport, start and landing the antenna is folded up. An emergency dropfunction should also be included in the design of CARABAS III.The extent of this report includes construction of the antenna, frame structure attached to thehelicopter, mechanism for folding the antenna up and down and mechanism for emergencydrop function. The mechanical design of the antenna and frame structure is based on modaland stress analysis, vibration measurement of Schweizer 300 and frequency analysis, andcalculations regarding aerodynamic drag and mechanics.The exciting frequencies of the helicopter and accelerations at those frequencies weredetermined by vibration measurement and frequency analysis.

Intranät. Bloggar och Wikis är idag verktyg som ofta förknippas med information och kunskap. Verktygen figurerar på senare tid allt oftare inom organisationer för bevaring, spridning och överföring av information samt som strategiska verktyg inom Knowledge Management där de faller inom kategorin Knowledge Management Systems. Denna studie har till syfte att redogöra för hur och varför IT-organisationer använder Intranät, Bloggar och Wikis som information och kunskapskanaler. Syftet är även att se till hur anställda inom IT-organisationer upplever och ser på dessa verktyg samt vilka faktorer som kan ha påverkan på användandet.
