IISE Body of Knowledge by Yoni Arrieta

Applying BoK to strategic planning and scheduling
Planning and scheduling relates with
Chapter 7 of the IISE Body of Knowledge,
“Operations Engineering and
Management” that refers to operations
planning and production scheduling. The tools and techniques
in this chapter have been applied
for more than 40 years in manufacturing
and service industries to ensure efficient
business operations. Among techniques
we found were Toyota Production
System, Lean manufacturing, Six
Sigma, total quality management,
theory of constraints, quick response
manufacturing, operations research
and management, and supply chain
management.
