Book excerpt: A wide spectrum of tools and techniques exists to manage business cost, output, utilization, cycle time, performance. This objective book explains strategy, benefits and application of tools, and how they fit and reinforce each other Basic IE principles apply widely, to support efficiency and productivity not only in manufacturing but also in the office, lab, maintenance shop, warehouse; service industries, military, medical services, construction. The 400 plus pages of this book present: Seven chapters on Industrial Engineering. Theory, practice, application; how it all fits together, payback of 10 times and how to get it, a sample charter. Four chapters on industrial engineering within a broader management structure; labor, materials, overhead, risk management. Eleven chapters on Cost Reduction; Survive, Recover, or Thrive. Basics, management, accounting, cherry pick, beyond cherry picking, do operating practices interfere, value added, motivation. Thirteen chapters on Work Measurement. What, Why, and How-To. Measurement techniques, incentives, time study, work sampling, construction piece rates, a model plan to establish work measurement, methods checklists, glossary, useful forms. Twenty seven chapters on Plant layout, facility design, floor planning. Benefits, concepts, work flow and productivity, sequence, relocation, relationships between elements of a layout, master plan, many tools to use, glossary. Sixteen chapters on Facility Relocation, Merger, and Consolidation. A plant instead of or in addition to, is it time to expand? to relocate? Justification, the relocation marketplace, incentives and taxes, site search, confidentiality, sequence. Examples of layouts within different building shapes. Five chapters on Capacity, Utilization, Constraints. Determine constraints, manage them, optimize capacity. Four chapters on Lean, or the Toyota Production System (although the author does not claim to be an expert). Lean Manufacturing and its predecessors, Just In Time or Just In Case, What the real Lean experts say, push or pull supply chain. A chapter, Made in (the name of your country here). Good reasons to keep manufacturing near the home market. For management and for the practitioner, IE Theory, Practice and Application presents what, why, benefits to expect, how to manage and how to practice the discipline; with checklists; and forms. Practical, real-life actions, on the production floor but also from the boardroom, are suggested to support business and production management, productivity and capacity. IE tools do not all perform the same function. Furthermore, none of these tools is automatically valuable or useful; each has pros and cons as you consider potential cost and benefit in your circumstance. Select those actions that will bring the most benefit to your circumstances and objectives and which can be implemented by your organization. "Most benefit" often refers to cost but not always; targets may in your situation include output volume now or future growth, fast reaction time, customer service, new products, new technology, quality, technical innovation or excellence, market share. IE tools can help attain all of these objectives.

Book excerpt: During the past several decades, the manufacturing and service industries significantly increased their levels of productivity, quality, and profitability through the application of process improvement techniques and information technology. Unfortunately, the construction industry lags far behind in the application of performance improvement and optimization techniques, as well as its overall competitiveness. Written by Lincoln H. Forbes and Syed M. Ahmed, both highly regarded for leadership and innovation, Modern Construction: Lean Project Delivery and Integrated Practices offers cutting-edge lean tools and other productive strategies for the management of people and processes in the construction industry. Drs. Forbes and Ahmed focus mainly on lean construction methodologies, such as The Last Planner(R) System, The Lean Project Delivery System (TM), and Integrated Project Delivery(TM). The tools and strategies offered draw on the success of the world-renowned Toyota Production System (TPS) adapted to the construction environment by construction professionals and researchers involved in developing and advocating lean construction methods. The book also discusses why true lean construction can best occur when all the construction stakeholders, owners, designers, constructors, and material suppliers are committed to the concept of optimizing the flow of activities holistically while de-emphasizing their self-interest. The authors also reintroduce process improvement approaches such as TQM and Six Sigma as a foundation for the adoption of lean methodologies, and demonstrate how these methods can improve projects in a so-called traditional environment. The book integrates these methods with emerging interest in "green construction" and the use of information technology and Building Information Modeling (BIM), while recognizing the human element in relation to motivation, safety, and environmental stresses. Written specifically for professionals in an industry that desperately needs to play catch up, the book delineates cutting-edge approaches with the benefit of successful cases and explains how their deployment can improve construction performance and competitiveness.

This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents techniques for effective and successful project management across all phases of the project, covering all of the management tools and leadership skills for any industrial project, from the beginning of the project, through the feasibility study, execution, and through to operations and maintenance strategy. This book presents advanced modern tools for use by management and engineers in decision making, and it covers the gap between project management theories of the actual project. All statistical tools and probability distributions are discussed for use in the qualitative risk assessment of the project. The Monte-Carlo simulation technique is presented as a tool for risk assessment in the feasibility study phase and the construction management skills that are required on site to control the different parameters that affect quality, time and cost are discussed. The new concept of the total building commissioning technique will be presented, as well, a new method that is not covered in other volumes. Moreover, all the methods that are used in the economic analysis and the evaluation between alternatives are illustrated. The planning and scheduling of the project are illustrated by the Critical Path Method (CPM) and the Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT). The control of resources and costs are very important issues that are covered in the book, and these provide the main tools for controlling and monitoring the performance of the project. Tendering, bidding and contracting methods are critical issues in any project due to their impact on the project performance and are discussed along with different methods and ways for dealing with these issues worldwide and on international projects. Resources organization and ways for enhancing project performance by controlling individual attitudes are very important issues that are clarified. Finally, managing project risk is the main tool for a successful project, so all the techniques for risk analysis, assessment and evaluation is presented. This volume is a "one-stop shop" for project and construction management of industrial projects, for engineers, managers, owners, and anyone else working on the project.
