A solid introduction to materials management and the tools needed
to create a world-class materials management program

This nuts-and-bolts guide presents an overview of the inner
workings of the materials process, as well as the best practices to
achieve a world-class operating system that will help to eliminate
ineffective materials management. Coverage includes discussion of
material requirements planning, planning parameters, electronic
data interchange, and material control graphs and reports, among
many other topics. Thorough and practical, Materials Management
explains the impact that inadequate inventory control has on a
company and how these poor controls can reduce production, cause
inefficiencies in labor, create excessive inventory, and increase
freight expenses.

Stan McDonald (Northville, MI) is an independent consultant on
materials management. Throughout his 30-year career, he has held
various positions in the supply chain/materials management
arena.

Index.

"This is a comprehensive look into the total materials management
of a manufacturing operation. This book puts professionalism into
materials management. Most manufacturing disciplines are backed by
engineering, finance, or business degrees, but very little is
geared toward the materials management field. This book helps to
rectify that shortcoming."--Michael D. Sanna, Thirty Plus
Years in manufacturing management

"Stan knows how to get the best out of your materials management
system. He works with all facets of the organization, including
lean, to implement the materials business processes that make
sense."--Jim McManus, Director, Process Engineering, Henniges
Automotive

"This publication is an excellent depiction of how material flow
should be managed in a perfect operating environment. The
book's format is written in an easy-to-read and -follow
format that allows the reader to visualize the process flow
smoothly. The examples are clear in 'what if' format
and show what happens to the supply chain if a process is not
performed properly, resulting in disruptions in production. It is
clear that all disciplines must be followed throughout the supply
chain process to properly execute accurate planning and inventory
while still allowing the productive side enough material to run
lean and efficiently. This periodical explains how to do just
that."--Chuck Hineman, Transportation and Packaging Manager,
Behr America Inc.
