Production Control Desk Book

In this day and age of electronic workstations, it is hard to find a book that describes the basics. This book shows how it can be done with paper. So, when the lights go out, you can still move forward. This book has plenty of workflow diagrams, sample reports, and an extensive index. Robert L. Janson was a manager with Ernst and Ernst, Cleveland, Ohio. Previously, he was the work manager of Otis Elevator's Baker Fort Lift Truck Division, where he was responsible for all plant operations. I know this book works as it was the key basis that I used at Keen Wire Company to run the production control. We took a unique approach by building a "war room" with Plexiglas walls and moving the products and machines around with grease pencils and shop rags. You could see the whole operation at a glance, not just look at a fraction in a small computer window.
