The term technical complexity measures the extent of control an organization has over its production process. Technology has allowed for predictability and certainty on the production line as a result of mechanization. Continuous process technology is also a result of mechanization. This method of production implies that production of goods and services is an on-going process 24/7. Hence, this means that there is no room for error in a continuous process as it would lead to losses. Technical complexity is greatest with continuous process technology because it allows for standardization and minimizes the chances of a break down. If one stage of ...
