Inventory Best Practices by Steven Bragg

Reducing a company's investment in inventory while at the same time having enough left for production needs is a key area of concern to many levels of management. Though there are many good books covering various aspects of the inventory problem, there is no compendium of improvement ideas, which was the central theme of Inventory Best Practices.  I clustered together about 200 inventory best practices in this book, and subsequent sales have indicated that the concept was sound.

Reviews

I don't know how he does it, but Steven Bragg makes reading about a subject such as inventory interesting, informative, and very useful.  Reading and implementing even some of the best practices in this book will improve your company.  I highly recommend this book for people who deal with inventory and for their managers. -- Gail Sevier, Manager of Marrs Sevier & Company LLC
