Manufacturing Planning and Control SystemsCentral themes are master planning, material requirements planning, inventory management, capacity management, production activity control, and just-in-time. Each has been updated for this edition (previous eds., 1984 and 1988) to reflect new ideas and practices as the manufacturing world moves toward the "zero everything" (zero inventory, lead time, defects, waste) vision of the future.
