In the fall of 1992 a conference honoring Elwood S. Buffa was held
at the Anderson Graduate School of Management of the University of
California, Los Angeles. This book is a collection of the work
presented at that conference. The scholars who gathered to honor El
are the prominent researchers in the field of Operations
Management. Their collective work published in this book represents
the richness of the field and provides the reader with valuable
insights into its important issues and problems. While any grouping
of the articles by these distinguished scholars will be arbitrary,
I have organized the book in four sections. In the first section
the articles dealing with the strategic issues in Operations
Management are compiled. The articles deal with continuous
improvement, quality, services, supply chain management, and
creating value through operations. The articles that explore the
interface of Operations Management with other functional areas,
e.g. engineering and marketing, are grouped in the second section.
The third section of the book contains articles that attempt to
model some important planning problems that arise in the management
of production and operations. Some of the papers in this section
provide state of the art reviews of selected topic areas. Finally,
the fourth section contains articles that deal with future
directions for Operations Management. The authors offer several
insights into the future evolution of the field. The book begins
with the keynote address given by El Buffa at the start of the
conference on November 2, 1991.
