    A great point Martinez also makes, “The business today is not solely based on equipment, products, or services. It’s dependent on the skills, talents and savvy of people”. This is a great point because without those people to operate those machines, and equipment’s there would not be a business to work. “ We are not only in an information age today; we are in an age of man, where by sales can only be made and increased through the interpersonal relationships that we create between provider and consumer, between our companies and our customers”. “Show me an organization or business that does not believe people are their greatest resources and I will show you an organization with built in limits to its success, and perhaps one destined for certain failure”(Dr. Drucker).

    Manufacturing Strategy

    Manufacturing strategy examines strategy for manufacturing and operations within the firm. The course will examine how manufacturing and operations can be used as competitive weapons.

In this sense, decisions on manufacturing capabilities must fit and be consistent with the business strategy. Furthermore, decisions about different areas of manufacturing must be consistent with each other. Choices about facilities, capacity, vertical integration, process technology, control and information systems, sourcing, human resources, organization and other areas are all strategic choices that significantly affect what the business brings to the marketplace.
