Collection material in English
Keppele Hall was an engineer, contractor, management theorist, superintendent of
planning for Joseph & Feiss Company, and member of the National Board of Labor
Managers. As a management consultant, he oversaw the implementation of management
systems according to the principles enunciated by proponents of scientific
management.
Professional papers consist primarily of fragmentary examples of work measurement and
job analysis materials used in various manufacturing companies. The documents
reflect Hall's effort to apply scientific management principles to practical
activities.
Work measurement materials include tags, job instructions, data and miscellaneous
notes and diagrams for the Tabor Mfg. Company (1912-1919), the Clinton Wire Cloth
Company (1917), Lamson and Sessions Company (1926), and Strouse Brothers Inc.
(1920); a contract for the Keppele Hall Contracting Company, Dayton, Ohio
(1894-1913); and drafts and copies of the Articles of Federation of the National
Industrial Federation of Clothing Manufacturers (1919). The papers also reflect
Hall's association with Frederick Taylor's colleagues, Richard A. Feiss and Sanford
E. Thompson.
