MRP II explores the principles of MRP II systems, and how the manufacturer can utilize and institute them effectively for maximum profit. The book will serve as a valuable professional reference for manufacturers instituting or utilizing an MRP II scheduling system. It will also be a valuable teaching tool for the 2- and 4- year college or university programs, a reference for APICS certification review, and continuing education programs. There are examples throughout, as well as extensive end-of-chapter case studies and their solutions. A glossary of terms is also included.
The goal of Inventory Management will be to explain the dynamics of inventory management's principles, concepts, and techniques as they relate to the entire supply chain (customer demand, distribution, and product transformation processes). The interrelationships of all functions will be defined. The book concentrates on understanding the many ramifications of inventory management. In today's competitive business environment, inventory management has proven to be most critical, and this book is directed to the management of inventory to assist in better understanding the body of knowledge required to operate in a competitive world. Almost all functions such as sales, engineering, and accounting have an impact and are impacted by inventory management. The book will assist in the training of students as well as APICS CPIM (Certified in Production and Inventory Management) candidates. As such it will not only be a textbook, but also a desk reference for those employees responsible for controlling inventories, and thereby assist in reducing cost, improving customer service, and maximizing capacity. Each chapter concludes with a case study and suggested solution. The case studies tell the story of a growing company, Smith Industries, and the related inventory management problems it had to address. The problems addressed relate to the subject matter of the chapter.

MRP II: Planning for Manufacturing Excellence, an authoritative and insightful text, explores and defines the principles of Manufacturing Resource Planning methodology. It describes how the manufacturer can utilize and institute these principles effectively for maximum profit. Written from a user's viewpoint, the author presents MRP II as a planning tool used to achieve successful execution in differing manufacturing environments. The text features extensive end-of-chapter case studies, chapter quizzes, and their solutions as well as a glossary of terms. It also includes specific goals for manufacturing environments such as short lead times, reduced work-in-process, and flexibility to demand. In addition, detailed explanations of recent approaches to both infinite and finite scheduling are examined as well as execution concepts for processes, ranging from continuous synchronized process flow to nonsynchronized interrupted flow. Designed to provide readers with the principles of MRP II as well as its application to planning and manufacturing execution, this essential guide fulfills the training needs of manufacturing personnel and community college students. It is also a useful resource for material and manufacturing practitioners who require in-depth knowledge of MRP II or those who use it as a reference book to assist in The American Production and Inventory Control Society (APICS) certification.
