By definition, a production model organises management principles and relationships with subcontractors and competitors — along with principles for managing industrial relations — into a coherent whole. The concept is not strictly microeconomic, given that it also organises the interdependancies between company strategy, industrial relations and even macroeconomic regulation, which makes it a useful intermediate mesoeconomic concept that allows us to make the transition from the company level to overall dynamics, and vice versa.
