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.
