Abstract: The development of textile industry has been varied during last years. Fabrics are subjected to abrasion during their life cycle using different types of fibres, finishing agents added to fibres and/or fabrics, changing construction or thickness of fabrics or several other factors that can increase the mechanical properties of fabrics. In this study, the properties of brand new filament fabrics have been compared to finished garments` fabrics after different maintenance possibilities. The Martindale tester is used according to standard EN ISO 12947 [1]. For assessment, the specimen is examined at suitable intervals to see whether two threads have broken, while recording the number of cycles. The abrasion resistance is only one of several factors contributing to wear performance or durability of fabrics. The inherent mechanical properties of fibres are important, elastic recovery of fibres or high elongation, hence a high degree of quality. Longer fibres indicate better abrasion resista

WHY DO MANAGEMENT INNOVATIONS FAIL? THE IMPACT OF MANAGEMENT FRAME ON INNOVATION IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS

Abstract: Organization theorists and researchers have assumed that management innovation is one of the sustainable sources of competitive advantage. In addition, previous studies have emphasized the significance of an implementation climate and an innovation–values fit that are suitable for effective innovation implementation. This study analyzes a case of human resource management (HRM) innovation in a Japanese firm. The findings suggest that targeted users’ HRM frames, which have been developed based on their experiences of previous and current HRM practices, influence their sensemaking of the new practice, and thus affect HRM innovation implementation. Moreover, the findings indicate that congruence between the HRM frames of innovators and targeted users is important for effective implementation of HRM innovations. These findings could also be applied to management innovation in general.
