Book Description Integrated inventory management is a
compelling approach that is driving many of the organizational changes in
manufacturing today. This comprehensive manual covers the practical issues that
must be dealt with when managing inventory. Author Paul Bernard, a systems
manager for over 20 years and an active member of APICS, establishes the need
for an inventory strategy that is integral to the business. Writing for
practitioners, he provides a method for streamlining and connecting all aspects
of inventory management, explaining how to implement projects, programs, and
initiatives more effectively. Where other books on the subject address every
aspect of inventory management as a stand-alone topic, Bernard describes each
component in relation to all other aspects of the process, making inventory
management more understandable from a practical perspective. Using his integral
strategy concept, Bernard covers the translation of theory to practice
throughout the book, with a heavy emphasis on tables, figures, and the unique
inclusion of computer screens for illustration. Integrated Inventory
Management is a thorough reference that offers even the most experienced
professional a wealth of new information on the topic.
