The  interrelationships of all functions will be defined. The book  concentrates on understanding the many ramifications of inventory  management. In today's competitive business environment, inventory  management has proven to be most critical, and this book is directed  to the management of inventory to assist in better understanding the  body of knowledge required to operate in a competitive world. Almost  all functions such as sales, engineering, and accounting have an  impact and are impacted by inventory management. The book will assist  in the training of students as well as APICS CPIM (Certified in  Production and Inventory Management) candidates. As such it will not  only be a textbook, but also a desk reference for those employees  responsible for controlling inventories, and thereby assist in  reducing cost, improving customer service, and maximizing capacity.  \u003cbr\u003e  Each chapter concludes with a case study and suggested solution. The  case studies tell the story of a growing company, Smith Industries,  and the related inventory management problems it had to address. The  problems addressed relate to the subject matter of the chapter.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2000-06-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792383246\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-4363-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 228\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44698310443148,"sku":"9780792383246","price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792383246.jpg?v=1775011426","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792383246","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
