With the still further development of technique and scienceeven the simplest article required numerous elementary opera-tions in its production. High-speed automatic machinery and thelike shifted the importance from the performance of the operationto the coordination of a multitude of various functions and a differ-ent form of management became necessary. This need was notrealized until very recently and the owners for a long time con-tinued to attempt to delegate the management to men who were sup-posed to know how the things are made though often these skillfulmechanics and trained designing engineers knew little or nothing asto how the productive functions shall be
