Contents

UPDATED! Real-world examples: Operations management is a practical subject and cannot be taught satisfactorily in a purely theoretical manner. Because of this, each chapter starts with a real-life example of how the topic is treated in practice and provides additional examples in relation to specific issues within each chapter. UPDATED! Case studies: Every chapter includes a case study, relating real or realistic situations that require analysis, decision, or both. The cases have sufficient content to serve as the basis of case sessions in class, but are short enough to serve as illustrations for the less formal reader. The coverage of Lean Operations, which was included in the Deliver in previous editions, has been moved to the Develop part to reflects the change in how Lean is seen in the subject. Its emphasis has shifted more towards a holistic approach to operations and improvement. And, while its role in planning and control remains relevant, lean is increasingly seen as an improvement approach.
