Completely revised and updated, this authoritative and essential book covers the new and existing state-of-the-manufacturing-art in areas including:
Supply chain management
Demand management
Sales and operations planning
Material requirements planning (MRP)
Enterprise resource planning (ERP)
Production activity control
Inventory management
Capacity planning and utilization
The customer is king in today's manufacturing environment, and meeting customer demands has become the chief imperative for manufacturing success. Let Manufacturing Planning and Control Systems for Supply Chain Management provide you with the up-to-the-minute knowledge you need to meet those demands, and the details to meet them with dramatically greater speed and precision than your competitors.
The world of manufacturing is experiencing a top-to-bottom transformation of a magnitude not seen since Henry Ford introduced the assembly line. Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems increasingly integrate all internal company activities and functions, including manufacturing planning and control (MPC) systems. Decision making is transferred to floor level teams. Efficiency-driven processes are now being combined with global, web-driven interconnectedness between suppliers and customers, where the focus is on efficiencies gained by managing elaborate supply chains and networks.
In all of this, today's customers set the manufacturing agenda, demanding increased speed, greater variety--and even a hand in the manufacturing process itself.
