Description:
Books in this area have tended to be tactical in approach, offering prescriptive tools to would-be operations managers, many of these tools are irrelevant for the 1990s and beyond. This book concentrates throughout on the strategic role and importance of production/operations, enabling the firm to be competitive in global markets. The first chapter, on strategic issues, provides an important framework for the rest of the book. Human resource management and new product development, subjects often neglected in POM books, are given chapters of their own, and the chapter on manufacturing strategy provides an exhaustive discussion of key areas.
