Manufacturing and Supply Systems Management Summary

Manufacturing and Supply Systems Management: A Unified Framework of Systems Design and Operation by B. Wu

In order to compete in an increasingly demanding market, many manufacturing companies have to redesign or restructure their manufacturing systems so that a set of coherent manufacturing strategies can be supported. So this book aims to provide a comprehensive treatment of manufacturing strategy analysis (MSA) and manufacturing systems design (MSD). The strategic concerns of manufacturing are linked to subsequent manufacturing systems design activities through the use of an effective MSA/MSD interface.
Topics include: A structured approach to formulating manufacturing strategies; A set of linking processes to translate MSA concerns into relevant MSD action plans; Case studies.
This book is intended to help graduates and industry-based professionals to make more informed decisions when working on system-design or redesign projects.
