The book builds suspense around the mysteries and conflicts of its main characters at the same time that it reveals the problems threatening to undermine the small factory where they all work. The Missing Links takes a case study of a small factory whose owner has passed away under suspicious circumstances, leaving his daughter in charge. She encounters a multitude of problems—high work-in-progress inventory, poor working conditions, conflicts between two workshops, and longstanding customers leaving because of a decline in product quality. The new shop owner must learn the business and figure out a way to best solve the problems that threaten her company. The mission of this book is to demonstrate the effectiveness and the simplicity of the new demand driven methodologies (DDMRP). Most common industry standards, such as “total quality,” “lean,” and “total productive maintenance” are included, as well as “flow management.” This book analyzes flow management as one of the “missing links” in making a company profitable. It also progressively introduces the foundations of the demand driven methodology to respond to the hot topic of variability in modern supply chains. The need to understand the changes in management style necessary to ensure success is described as the second “missing link.” The definition of success is the immediate profitability of the company and the satisfaction of its customers, as well as the ability of the CEO to adapt the strategy to embrace new markets to prepare for the future and to motivate employees and shareholders. FEATURES: • Completely unique approach—a cross between a detective mystery and how-to book on supply chain management • Boasts 33 full-color appendices of the standard approaches used in the novel, updated on a regular basis • Ties in perfectly with the CDDP program and certification offered through the Demand Driven Institute • Written by an award-winning author and President of Fapics, the French Association of Supply Chain Management. TABLE OF CONTENTS: • PART I: Describes the business case associated with a fictional small business • PART II: Analyzes the root causes of the profitability problems faced by the small business • PART III: Shows how best practices in Demand Driven supply chain management can solve the problems to ensure both profitability and an attractive future for shareholders.

But times have changed—customer tolerance times are much shorter, product variety and complexity has increased, and supply chains have spread around the world. Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning (DDMRP) is an emerging, revolutionary method for supply chain planning and execution that effectively brings the 1950s concept into the modern era. The founAn Intui(ve and Proven Planning and Execu(on Method for Today’s Complex and Vola(le Supply Chains dation of DDMRP is based upon the connection between the creation, protection and acceleration of the flow of relevant materials and informaPtak and Smith tion and return on investment. Carol A. Ptak CFPIM, CIRM, CDDP Chad J. Smith CDDP Using an innovative multi-echelon “Pull” methodology, it helps plan and manage inventories and materials in today’s more complex supply scenarios, with attention being paid to ownership, the market, engineering, sales, and the supply base. It enables a company to build more closely to actual market requirements, and promotes better and quicker decisions and actions at the planning and execution level. Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning is THE definitive work on DDMRP, and will be required as courseware for all those taking the Certified Demand Driven Planner (CDDP) Program. FEATURES: • THE authoritative work on an emerging methodology (DDMRP) • DDMRP is already being used by some MAJOR Fortune 500 companies • Includes case studies and examples for different sized companies in multiple industries • Offers a link to courseware for the CDDP program, as well as access to certification, where readers can register for the exam • Ptak and Smith are world renowned leaders in the fields of MRP, TOC, Quality Improvement, and Supply Chain Management.

Globalization has increased competition; 2. The Internet has caused the disintermediation of parts distribution; 3. Technology in general has caused the rapid obsolescence of machinery and increased the numbers of spare parts needed. The key to uptime in manufacturing is managing risk. This work describes how to evaluate risk in the inventory. It provides dozens of ideas to properly reduce inventory, reduce usage, and save money in parts, all while maintaining service levels. The author, Joel Levitt, shows how the maintenance department can provide better support to purchasing agents and buyers. In the book, Levitt imparts the knowledge gained while he trained more than 17,000 people in 25 countries who are facing problems with their spare part inventory. This is an ideal resource for maintenance managers, planners, and engineers; parts specialists; supply chain managers; and anyone involved in purchasing.

NEW RELEASES FOR 2016 Spare Parts Inventory Management: A Complete Guide to Sparesology™ By Phillip Slater December 2016, 272 pp., ISBN: 978-0-8311-3608-6, $49.95 No previous works have focused on the topic of inventory reduction and optimization to the extent that this one does. Spare Parts Inventory Management covers the whole part’s life cycle, from initial purchase to final disposal, and addresses issues throughout, including MRO—maintenance, repair, and overhaul. The author, Phillip Slater, was described in a recent podcast as “truly one of the leaders in the MRO information segment.” Sparesology™ is a term coined by Slater to describe the discipline of optimizing the physical, financial, and human resource management processes of spare parts inventory management. Sparesology is much more than just inventory optimization. It involves an understanding of the complete “ecosystem” within which spare parts inventory is managed, and seeks to ensure that all factors influencing this management work in concert to achieve an organization’s goals.

Also, it offers hundreds of hints on how to solve every on-the-job welding problem. 51 52 WELDING and PIPING Handbook of PVC Pipe Design and Construction, Fifth Edition By the Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association 2012, 600pp., ISBN 978-0-8311-3450-1, $64.95 The Handbook of PVC Pipe Design and Construction is the Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association’s preeminent publication. The most comprehensive reference on PVC pipe and fittings, this handbook provides practical engineering and construction information together with recommendations applicable to the design and use of primarily underground PVC piping systems in both pressure and non-pressure applications. It is used by engineers in the utility and consulting engineering sectors, as well as in universities and technical institutions. All-in-One Manual of Industrial Piping Practice and Maintenance On-the-Job Solutions, Tips and Insights By K.K. Murty, 2010 384 pp., ISBN 978-0-8311-3414-3, $54.95 Books on design of pipelines and equipment are available but almost none on the piping that carries fluid to and fro. This practical, book offers complete coverage of piping practices and maintenance all in one place. Written by a professional with 35 years of hands-on experience in pipeline building, operating, and maintenance, this manual is designed to be kept at the ready, on the shop floor. Pipefitters Handbook, Third Edition By Forrest R. Lindsey, 1967, 464 pp., ISBN 0-8311-3019-0, $29.95 Compact and pocket-sized, this handy reference contains thousands of facts and figures relevant to pipefitters, steamfitters—anyone concerned with layout and installation of pipe. Providing answers to problems indigenous to power and industrial pipebending and the fabrication of weld fittings, it logically categorizes all material according to job description, supporting each working table with a clear example of how to use it. Welding: A Management Primer & Employee Training Guide By Robert O’Con, 2000, 208 pp., ISBN 978-0-8311-3139-5, $49.95 This work aids those in welding management with supervision and control of their welding operations, while offering apprentices and practitioners in-depth instruction on the basic manipulative welding and cutting processes. Extensively illustrated, this hands-on reference is organized in easy-to-understand, user-specific sections. The first section presents managers and small shop owners with the technical background and practical expertise needed to implement and manage their specific welding operations. In the second section readers will find a complete curriculum for self or in-plant welder training. An extensive data section containing important welding parameters for a range of applications is provided in the third section.
