Materials/logistics management is faced with an even more demanding business environment, requiring the function to respond and provide services never before realized. Today, and in the future, materials/ logistics management is a vital part of every company's organization. The function is an important part of our educational process. Materials/logistics management has received minor attention in the past, such as in the service sector of our economy. Service industries are now recognizing the importance and contribution of materials/logistics to their "bottom line" profits. The 2nd edition includes all of the basic functions of materials/logistics management. Logistics is emphasized as well as materials management be cause the term logistics is becoming more accepted. Today, many organiza tions include logistics in their organizational structure, often composed of the same subfunctions as materials management. These terms are even used interchangeably by companies and professionals when viewing their opera tions. With the increasing importance of materials/logistics managers in all sectors of the economy, there is a growing need for individuals educated in the discipline. Often, these personnel are being retrained from other occupations. In addition, it is important that personnel working in all other major company functions have basic knowledge of materials/logistics management in order to effectively perform their roles. This would include manufacturing, marketing, finance, engineering, quality assurance, and other major functions. Therefore, the book covers these basic relationships; any form of study that excludes these functional relationships offers too narrow a perspective of materials/ logistics management. Unfortunately, many oftoday's problems (even legal) in both manufacturing and service organizations are due to the lack of adequate attention to the materials/logistics management function. The authors have designed this book for both advanced undergraduate and graduate courses, for company on-the-job development programs, and for individuals who study independently to improve their competency in the various subfunctions of materials/logistics management. This text has been enhanced by including proven concepts with examples based upon the authors consulting business experience, with explanation to clarify these concepts. The book provides a formal system in studying these concepts, especially relating them to other major functions and relationships, xi
