"Based on the popular "Back to Basics" column that appears in APICS: The Performance Advantage, the structure of the book allows for sufficient development of each topic yet is short enough to be read quickly. Topics include: capacity, inventory, inventory accuracy, part numbering, processes, problem solving, and general managerial guidelines. Each chapter has everything you need to understand the issues and their implications.".
