Fundamentals of Operations Management, 2nd Canadian Edition

Davis' balanced Canadian and global perspective offers a broad and relatively non-quantitative overview of the field of operations management. Appealing to a variety of business majors, the text addresses the increasing trend towards a more managerial focus on the operations issues that confront managers today. While maintaining this "big picture" perspective, Davis is reflective of the Canadian economy by incorporating the role of the automotive industry, balancing service and manufacturing, emphasizing ISO 9000 standards in quality control, and leveraging examples from both small to medium sized businesses as well as larger corporations. The combination of features within Davis 2CE also offers a solid foundation of Operations practices to a variety of non-OM business majors.
