About this Item

: Este libro, 'Fundamentals of Operations Management', es una revisión importante que introduce a los estudiantes a los procesos fundamentales de gestión y control de una variedad de operaciones. El libro aborda la creciente tendencia de alejarse de los textos extensos y altamente cuantitativos hacia cuestiones más pragmáticas y de gestión que enfrentan los gerentes de operaciones de hoy en día. Se ha incrementado la cobertura de las operaciones de servicio en lugar del enfoque más tradicional de 'fábrica' o manufactura. Está escrito en un estilo adecuado para no especialistas que no asumen ningún conocimiento previo en el campo de las operaciones. El libro cubre ejemplos introductorios y numéricos y métodos cuantitativos, pero el enfoque principal está en los conceptos generales y las aplicaciones.

About this title

Synopsis

A major revision, Fundamentals of Operations Management, 4/e introduces students to the fundamental processes of managing and controlling a variety of operations. Davis' book addresses the increasing trend away from lengthy, highly quantitative texts toward more pragmatic, managerial issues that confront today's operations managers. There is increased coverage of service operations rather than the more traditional factory, or manufacturing approach. It's written in a style suited for non-majors who assume no prior background in the field of operations. Davis covers introductory and numerical examples and quantitative methods, but the main focus is on general concepts and applications. Unlike Stevenson, which focuses on the tools of operations management, Davis' approach to the subject is more conceptual or managerial.
