Features
This comprehensive version features 17 core chapters and 6 quantitative modules.
Operations Management 8th edition delivers the best problems in the industry (ie. examples, solved problems, and homework problems).
MOST PROBLEMS IN THE INDUSTRY
*Heizer/Render recognizes the importance of providing the largest, clearest, and most diverse problem sets in the industry. The 597 problems are coded on a 1, 2, 3, or 4-dot difficulty level. These are supplemented by 166 homework problems on the book’s web site. Solutions to all these are in the Instructor’s Solutions Manual, written by the authors.
When your students are stuck on homework problems, where do they usually turn in the book for help? Do you work examples into class? Do you find your students struggle with knowing how to approach these problems? Would step-by-step examples to coach students through the process be helpful?
How do you prepare students for your exams? Do you recommend practice problems? Do you assign homework? What types of problems are important? Would you be interested in problems that progress in level of difficulty?
Do you grade homework? Would you be interested in an online homework resource that offers static/algorithmic problems, student feedback, and can save you time with grading?
OTHER POINTS OF DIFFERENTIATION:

With job opportunities moving from manufacturing to a more service driven economy, would you be interested in a book that has a better service integration?
