N1  - Production Planning & Control is a key industrial engineering function for the manufacturing company and to comprehend these techniques and topics, it is essential to have the basic knowledge of the production functions and its scope. This book is prepared in such manner that even those who do not have much exposure to the function of production planning would be able to comprehend them, as they are related to industrial engineering. As the Planning Manager at Rallifan, heading the PP&C department, the author had the opportunity to introduce several PP&C systems and formats and with that experience, he was responsible to introduce similar systems and formats at Tanzania's National Bicycle Company right from its project stage. This experience has fully been utilised in bringing out this book on the basics of Production Planning. With all the case studies this book is expected to be of immense help not only to the engineering students, but also to practicing engineers who want to develop their career on production management.
