Production And Operations Management Systems

Since the beginning of mankind on Earth, if the "busyness" process was successful, then some form of benefit sustained it. The fundamentals are obvious: get the right inputs (materials, labor, money, and ideas); transform them into highly demanded, quality outputs; and make it available in time to the end consumer. Illustrating how operations relat

This book covers the emerging and important topics related to production and operations management in a systematic way. It covers not only the essentials of planning, designing, managing and controlling of manufacturing operations, but also a number of relevant topics such as total preventive maintenance, environmental issues in production system, advanced production system, total productivity management and work system design, which are not covered in many books. The book is a useful resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students of MBA programmes, as well as B.Tech and M.Tech programmes of production and industrial engineering. Key Features • Theories and concepts based on day-to-day practical applications in the industry • Large number of solved examples to explain the theoretical concepts • Case study at the end of each chapter to illustrate the theory • Brings out the link between linear programming and its applications

This Book Is Specially Designed For B.Tech And Mba Students. It Explains In A Simple But Thorough Manner, The Fundamental Concepts And Techniques Involved In Both Production And Operations Management. Sufficient Examples Are Included Throughout The Text To Illustrate These Concepts And Techniques.

This book explains why operations management tools are critical and how to successfully use them. Over 200 examples from real companies show how non operations professionals are using operations management concepts daily. It also introduces operations strategy early and often throughout to show how operational decisions are crucial to developing and executing a company's overall strategy.· Production Systems and Operations Management· Operations Strategy· Tours of Operations· Forecasting· Capacity Planning and Facility Location· Selecting the Process Structure and Technology· The Quality Management System· Aggregate Planning· Managing Materials with Dependent Demands· Operations and Personnel Scheduling· Project Planning and Scheduling
