It is used in technical programs, such as indus- trial engineering and manufacturing engineering; in business programs; and by those already in industry, whether or not they are working in materials management. This text has been widely adopted by colleges and universities not only in North America but also in other parts of the world. APICS—The Association for Operations Management recommends this text as the reference for certification preparation for various CPIM examinations. In addition, the text is used by produc- tion and inventory control societies around the world, including South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, France, and Brazil, and by consultants who pre- sent in-house courses to their customers. Introduction to Materials Managementcovers all the basics of supply chain man- agement, manufacturing planning and control systems, purchasing, and physical dis- tribution. The material, examples, questions, and problems lead the student logically through the text. The writing style is simple and user-friendly—both instructors and students who have used the book attest to this. In the sixth edition, we have added the following: • More content on Theory of Constraints (Chapter 6) • More content on supply chains (Chapter 7) • More content on lean production (Chapter 15) • Content on the use of technology in purchasing and warehousing (Chapters 7, 12) • The effect of global logistics and reverse logistics (Chapter 13) • Six Sigma and QFD (Chapter 16) • Small case studies at the end of several chapters • PowerPoint slides to accompany all the chapters (an online resource for instructors) iii iv Preface In addition, we have retained several features from previous editions: • Margin icons to note key concepts • Key terms listed at the end of each chapter • Example problems within the chapters • Chapter summaries • Questions and problems at the end of each chapter APPROACH AND ORGANIZATION Materials management means different things to different people. In this textbook, materials management includes all activities in the flow of materials from the supplier to the consumer. Such activities include physical supply, operations planning and con- trol, and physical distribution. Other terms sometimes used in this area are business logisticsandsupply chain management. Often, the emphasis in business logistics is on transportation and distribution systems with little concern for what occurs in the fac- tory. Whereas some chapters in this text are devoted to transportation and distribu- tion, emphasis is placed on operations planning and control. Distribution and operations are managed by planning and controlling the flow of materials through them and by using the system’s resources to achieve a desired customer service level. These activities are the responsibility of materials manage- ment and affect every department in a manufacturing business. If the materials management system is not well designed and managed, the distribution and manufac- turing system will be less effective and more costly. Anyone working in manufacturing or distribution should have a good basic understanding of the factors influencing materials flow. This text aims to provide that understanding. APICS defines the body of knowledge, concepts, and vocabulary used in pro- duction and inventory control. Establishing standard knowledge, concepts, and vocabulary is essential both for developing an understanding of production and inventory control and for making clear communication possible. Where applicable, the definitions and concepts in this text subscribe to APICS vocabulary and concepts. The first six chapters of Introduction to Materials Managementcover the basics of production planning and control. Chapter 7 discusses important factors in purchasing and supply chain; Chapter 8discusses forecasting. Chapters 9, 10, and 11 look at the fundamentals of inventory management. Chapter 12 discusses physical inventory and warehouse management, and Chapter 13examines the elements of dis- tribution systems, including transportation, packaging, and material handling. Chapter 14 covers factors influencing product and process design. Chapter 15 looks at the philosophy and environment of just-in-time and lean production and explains how operations planning and control systems relate to just-in-time and lean production. Chapter 16examines the elements of total quality management and Six Sigma quality approaches.
