| Synopsis: |
Over the past 15 years the authors have been engaged in projects with many firms to analyse and redesign production and inventory control systems. The main purpose of this analysis and redesign was the reduction of inventory and costs, improvement of delivery performance, and simplification of the organization involved in production and inventory control. During these studies the authors became convinced that the knowledge available on the design of control systems places too much emphasis on techniques and methods, whereas the main concern should be to establish a proper control structure. This control structure should identify the main decision functions, their goals, their relationships, and the organizational position to which these decision functions should be assigned. For each decision function in the control structure, a global planning and decision procedure should be established. This book gives a comprehensive overview on the elements of a good production control structure. It examines approaches for possible structures, and how to select an adequate structure for a particular production situation. |
