Production Management

" a well-written work. . . . particularly strong in providing the reader with an excellent gestalt of the systems concept, of the interrelation between the parts of the enterprise and the whole . . ."
from a pre-publication review

Division, dissection, classification, separation, partition, segmentation—these analytic behaviors are required to break the complex system down into simple parts. Summation, integration, unification, combination, amalgamation—these synthesizing behaviors are required to reassemble the system so that it is better than when we started. The production management complex is examined in these terms by means of the systems approach in this comprehensive introduction to the field of production management. The book provides a basic treatment of the total field dealing with the interactions and interdependencies of the parts with the whole.

Division, dissection, classification, separation, partition, segmentation—these analytic behaviors are required to break the complex system down into simple parts. Summation, integration, unification, combination, amalgamation—these synthesizing behaviors are required to reassemble the system so that it is better than when we started. The production management complex is examined in these terms by means of the systems approach in this comprehensive introduction to the field of production management. The book provides a basic treatment of the total field dealing with the interactions and interdependencies of the parts with the whole.
Production factors are unified by the development of an input-output model which provides the basic structure for all production activities. Input is represented by materials and productivity of labor; the process is designed, implemented and controlled to achieve the well-balanced use of facilities and plant; the output is treated in terms of quality and production schedule control.
Four major sections of the book bring the systems approach into sharp focus:
I— The Production Management Complex. The background, concepts, and fundamentals of the production management field.
jj_Production Management Models.
All aspects are discussed: decision models,
