This book begins with clear concept and statement of pertinent definitions. Illustration of conceptual framework with examples and suitable diagrams and formulas to explain Productivity, Method Study, Time Study, Calculation of standard time, EOQ, SQC, TQM, Acceptance sampling etc. This book is different from others in terms of coverage and presentation of concepts. The subject matter has been organized on "First Thing First" basis for its logical presentation that sustain interest and provides comprehensive coverage for management courses like MBA and for engineering course like B.Tech, B.E & M.Tech of various universities. In addition, this book is useful for professionals in the field of production, industrial management and engineering.

For close to 20 years, “Industrial Engineering and Production Management” has been a successful text for students of Mechanical, Production and Industrial Engineering while also being equally helpful for students of other courses including Management. Divided in 5 parts and 52 chapters, the text combines theory with examples to provide in-depth coverage of the subject.

Process Engineering, the science and art of transforming raw materials and energy into a vast array of commercial materials, was conceived at the end of the 19th Century. Its history in the role of the Process Industries has been quite honorable, and techniques and products have contributed to improve health, welfare and quality of life. Today, industrial enterprises, which are still a major source of wealth, have to deal with new challenges in a global world. They need to reconsider their strategy taking into account environmental constraints, social requirements, profit, competition, and resource depletion. “Systems thinking” is a prerequisite from process development at the lab level to good project management. New manufacturing concepts have to be considered, taking into account LCA, supply chain management, recycling, plant flexibility, continuous development, process intensification and innovation. This book combines experience from academia and industry in the field of industrialization, i.e. in all processes involved in the conversion of research into successful operations. Enterprises are facing major challenges in a world of fierce competition and globalization. Process engineering techniques provide Process Industries with the necessary tools to cope with these issues. The chapters of this book give a new approach to the management of technology, projects and manufacturing. Contents Part 1: The Company as of Today 1.

This second edition has been made more useful to the student community by incorporating all the basic tenets of management principles on a platter. Pharmaceutical Industrial Management focuses on managing the physical, material, financial and human resources of Pharmaceutical Industry in a fittest way. I

This second edition details all productivity and quality methodologies, principles and techniques, and demonstrates how they interact in the three phases of the productivity and quality management triangle (PQMT): measurement, control and evaluation; planning and analysis; and improvement and monitoring. This edition features material on practical strategies for implementing quality programmes, balancing productivity and quality results , resolving quality problems and empowering employees.
