    About this ebook

    The Production Management is the process of producing
    products through manufacture of raw materials into finished
    goods. The concept of production management was invented at
    the time of industrialisation.
    Production Management is a broad field and its usage is
    recognised in multiple areas which are concerned with providing
    services to the consumers. A Production Manager is required in
    fields like in Theatres as Stage Manager, Human Resources,
    Management, Accounting and Financial Management etc.
    A Production Manager's job working in an industry is to
    regulate the design of the product according to the wants of
    the customers. It also keeps a check on provision of raw
    materials, work force, money, materials and methods which are
    important for the manufacture of the desired product.
    Proper Product Planning and Control is employed to avoid
    faults in the manufacturing process of the product to prevent
    the company from passing through the loss phase be it in the
    case of resources or the reputation that the company has
    developed over the years of work.
    The Production Management department of the organisation is
    said to be the most important part of the organisation. Many
    other areas of work are affected if Production Management is
    not carried out properly and therefore is also referred to as
    the nervous system of an organisation.

      Preface

      The Production Management is the process of producing products through manufacture of raw materials into finished goods. The concept of production management was invented at the time of industrialisation.

      Production Management is a broad field and its usage is recognised in multiple areas which are concerned with providing services to the consumers. A Production Manager is required in fields like in Theatres as Stage Manager, Human Resources, Management, Accounting and Financial Management etc.

      A Production Manager’s job working in an industry is to regulate the design of the product according to the wants of the customers. It also keeps a check on provision of raw materials, work force, money, materials and methods which are important for the manufacture of the desired product.

      Proper Product Planning and Control is employed to avoid faults in the manufacturing process of the product to prevent the company from passing through the loss phase be it in the case of resources or the reputation that the company has developed over the years of work.

      The Production Management department of the organisation is said to be the most important part of the organisation. Many other areas of work are affected if Production Management is not carried out properly and therefore is also referred to as the nervous system of an organisation.

      Summary

It began in 1776 when Adam Smith demanded specialisation of labour in the manufacturing laying emphasis on their training to ensure efficient output. With efforts made by Mullins and his co-workers and many other pioneers of the time development of organisational behaviour and management theory took place
