About This Course

Production planning and control refer to two strategies that work cohesively throughout the manufacturing process. Production planning involves what to produce, when to produce it, how much to produce, and more. A long-term view of production planning is necessary to fully optimize the production flow. Production control uses different control techniques to reach optimum performance from the production system to achieve throughput targets. In this course you will learn the basic concepts of Production, Manufacturing processes, selection of apt system for optimizing inventory, Product management to advanced planning and control techniques as such lot sizing, EOQ method, Order size calculation, Break-even analysis, Assembly line balancing, and many more. Most suitable for students belonging to mechanical engineering, management, Industrial engineering, Production technology, and Manufacturing science. Furthermore, this course covers all the topics for university students having PPC as one of the subjects or a part of Industrial engineering and for ambitious Production managers employed in various industries. Why should you take this course - - Many students find it difficult to settle in an industry even if they are academically skilled. This course brings out about everything that is required for a GET (Graduate Engineering Trainee) or DET (Diploma Engineering Trainee) prior to their industrial exposure. - The course contains an explanation of certain industrial management tools as such MRP, Inventory control, Lot sizing, etc. which becomes very handy for those professionals who want to show their mettle in the industry. All these tools are very carefully designed and explained in the course. - Working in an industry is not always fieldwork. You as an engineer are required to show your presentation skills to convey various ideas, issues, and solutions. The tools explained in the course would come in very handy. - And last but not least. You are going to understand the in and outs of the industry from the viewpoint of a person who joined as a trainee (GET) & made his way up the ladder to become a production engineer (Me). :) Please do see the FREE preview lectures before joining the course.
