Many manufacturing managers feel unsure about the nature of CIM; Steven Melnyk and Ram Narasimhan present it as a strategic, rather than a technical, function and offer a management-based approach for understanding and implementing it in your operations. Unlike other CIM books, Computer Integrated Manufacturing is written from the manager's point of view, rather than that of a technical expert. In easy-to-understand terms, it shows you how to: develop a strong link between strategy and CIM structure; turn CIM into a competitive advantage over business rivals; deal with glitches that arise in the CIM process.
