This sequel to the bestselling Manufacturing at Warp Speed, refines and updates the former approach to production management with new ideas that complement earlier tactics. This is the first book to describe, in detail, the application of the TOC approach to assured availability in distribution, for both original equipment manufacturers and retailers. The authors address the new demands taken on when a firm offers the ability to handle rush orders. They also review the issues surrounding availability and the management of inventory moving through distribution systems.
