Prescribed Text book for Hogeschool van Amsterdam MBA module Operations Management
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I am the lecturer of the module Operations Management for the Masters of Business Administration(MBA) study at the Hogeschool van Amsterdam(University). I find this an excellent book,describing all the various aspects of Operations, varying from Production oriented to Service oriented companies, covering the whole spectrum of Operations in Business. The visual aids by way of diagrams and photo's makes it easier for students to identify with the key challenges that Operations managers face. I would recommend this book to any Operational manager who wants to top up their theoretical skills, and for academics who wants to get a view of the world of operations.

In this textbook the writers learn the reader every step of the operation management from the design of the product, the needed design for a factory, layout and flow and job design, to all steps of planning and control, till the first product is created and from then on improvements on the system and the production process. A thick book that provides minor information of a lot of different subjects, but still the writers succeed in giving the reader the idea to read and learn new thinks. Especially for people new in production industry this book is useful for a first introduction in the jargon used and the problems encountered.
