"Great resource!" according to Arik J. Beal. Thick book, Goes into great depth on each subject. Can be read straight through or as a reference book to look up individual subjects. As the Operations Manager at a medium size manufacturing facility I found this book to be well worth the price. There are some subjects that seem only feasible for an organization the size of the US military or GM and I have to wonder how big of a readership the author thought he would have among those top .1% of managers. Planning a central call center for our maintenance program is just not feasible but it does. Where is this place? The information is good. The book is a good reference. But really, where is this place that gives so many resources to the maintenance department. There are planners, buyers, schedulers, researchers, secretaries, etc…In most places I have worked there is 1 boss and he does all of that. I would like to apply for a position at whatever location these people are talking about. If you buy this book just keep it as a guideline nothing more.. Two Stars I was not impressed
