Book Description
Empowering readers with ways to approach career planning that will have lifelong advantages, this action-oriented handbook covers what everyone entering the workforce needs to know about making career choices, searching for suitable internships and jobs, and succeeding in the workplace of the 21st century. Optimistic and personal, it addresses a wide range of topics, gets readers motivated with numerous activities for self-assessment and research, and comes rich with case examples. Builds upon a sound theoretical framework that focuses on three major areas corresponding to three essential tasks-1) searching for information (exploration); 2) setting your career direction (specification) and; 3) making your work experience count (implementation). Examines such areas as internship/job search, academic planning and decision making, and career management skills. Introduces a systematic approach to career exploration providing easy-to-remember, practical models for defining career issues. Shows how to deal with the vast transformation of the workplace brought about by technological, social, and economic forces, and stresses the value of work experience and internships as a source of learning about careers. Combines intuitive and rational approaches to career decision making, and identifies internal obstacles to career development and recommends ways for readers to deal with them. Ideal for use in multi-session workshops, continuing education courses, or as a resource for individual counseling and self-help.
Book Description
Good management of inventory enables companies to improve their customer service, cash flow and profitability. 'Best Practice in Inventory Management' outlines the basic techniques, how and where to apply them, and provides advice to ensure they work to produce the desired effect in practice.
The book shows how inventory management techniques can be used in a wide variety of situations, particularly in stores where the inventory can be anything from fast moving products to slow moving spares. The discussion extends across distribution warehousing and manufacturers' operations.
The text is based on best theory and practice, which has been gradually developed by the inventory management profession over the years. It covers the inventory control aspects included in the courses for the DPIM, COM, DLM, CPIM and other professional and academic qualifications.
Readers develop their understanding of stock control by seeing the techniques explained logically and learn how inventory structuring, individual item control, forecasting and co-ordination provide the base for logistics management. This new edition has been up-dated throughout and the final chapter, The Future - Inventory and Logistics, has been re-written to reflect the developing applications of technology and changes in focus.
Explains how inventory management techniques achieve low stocks and improved customer serviceActs as a practical manual for making improvements in stock control and for saving moneyCovers the syllabi of the DPIM, COM, DLM and other professional and academic qualifications

Inventory management.......2007-07-27
The concepts are presented pretty clearly, however the author is a Brit and the terminology used throughout is a bit foreign to me. But theres a lot of information here for someone who wants to get an overview of what inventory management entails.
Theory is not best practice.......2005-08-09
I bought this book expecting to find examples of new ideas developed recently by businesses that are considered at the top level related to assets management.
What I found was an excellent summary of all the textbooks used in college for the last 40 years. I could even find a chart we used in class in 1972.
Best Practices in Inventory management must include links to Manufacturing strategies, postponement of production to delay costs, improve flexibility for lower number of SKU's.
I find the title pretty ambitious but not enough "meat".
Stock problems? Look no further...........2002-07-05
If you work in stock control, sales, purchasing, or production planning and really do not have a clue where to start in order to maximise the profitability of your inventory (both raw materials and finished goods), then there is no better place to start than with this book. It gives much practical advice that is easy to implement in real business life and emphasises the genuine cost savings and improved cashflow that can be gained.
What I like most about the boook is its structure - it starts with the basics (why inventory control is important financially), and takes you through basic forecasting methods to more advanced levels (e.g. double exponential smoothing). You can implement most of the advice in Excel or similar spreadsheet. I am no mathematician and I must admit I found some of the formulas difficult to understand at first, but please do not be put off - perserverence will pay dividends and you will see this perseverence hit the bottom line!
very practical.......2000-09-03
Pragmatic view to inventory management
This book is useful........2000-06-13
This book is useful. It is expected, however, to be revised in some points. There are some miss specifications in terminologies and in some chapters, explanations are not good enough to understand the equations or methods the auther used.

Very organized - fast read - very happy.......2007-03-22
I read close to 5 major books on warehousing, including Excellence in Warehouse Managment. I found most to be little more than books defining warehouse terminology. Bragg has clear ideas to improve warehousing (inventory management). "Nearly 200" says the dustjacket. I'd buy this one again.

Customer Reviews:
much practical advice.......2007-03-09
The book is replete with much practical advice that can readily be understood and applied by a diligent reader. One example would be monitoring the scrap percentage for a manufacturing operation. As Bragg points out, this can be an indicator of poor workmanship, bad setup of the machinery or inferior raw materials used by the factory.
Another example is the rate of use of loading dock doors. Each door also implies an allocation of floor space next to it, for moving goods in and out of the warehouse. A door that is minimally used often suggests that floor space is not being fully utilised.
For these and many other examples, Bragg furnishes simple metrics to measure the effect. Most are trivial mathematically, and could be defined from first principles by a reader experienced in engineering. But the book seems to be aimed, in part, at a reader who does not have such a background. Perhaps you rose from the shop floor, to now have managerial responsibility?
