Abstract
In a fast changing economical world, the enterprise environment which used to be stable and where forecasts could be made, is now moving at random in other words dangerous. The consequence is a selection process in which only companies flexible enough to match the competition at world level will survive. Controlling the main parameters which typify the enterprise reactivity is thus a fundamental challenge and CIM is one of the answers, not only for survival but also for increasing the market share and ensuring growth. In french language this concept is know as “Productique”.
