"Product Based Management"
Author: Daigneau, William A.
Published In: Facilities Manager
Date: September/October 1997

The concept that the natural outcome of all human activity is the production of products, even for managers and professionals, is something that we are not conditioned to think about in those terms. The author discusses how that concept reshaped his entire approach to management and how he viewed organization, resource allocation, and performance measurement. Discusses product based management and its application to facilities. Describes efforts to apply PBM at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, including product identification, organization, restructuring, and lessons learned.
