Summary

For undergraduate/graduate courses in Materials Management, Operations Management, Planning/Control. Designed to take students beyond the problems included in introductory texts on production and inventory control, this casebook features 35 examples of the problems that production and inventory management professionals face throughout their working lives. The casebook is coordinated with the text Introduction to Materials Management, 4/e by Arnold and Chapman--but is appropriate as a companion to any core production/inventory control text-- and is available in customized format via Prentice Hall's JIT Custom Publishing program.
