Description
"Intelligent Manufacturing" shows how appropriate exploitation of information technology can simplify, integrate and automate the manufacturing process without necessarily requiring large investment or complex technology. It guides manufacturers through strategic planning on product and process enhancement, and the successful implementation of IT. The issues of organizational change and managing people through the necessary transformation are discussed, as are those of risk management. All points are illustrated with short case studies of the experience of modern-thinking companies.
