I received yesterday a review copy of Bianca Scholten's latest book: MES Guide for Executives: Why and How to Select, Implement, and Maintain a Manufacturing Execution System. It is published by ISA Press. I'm going to read it over the weekend and I'll let you know what I think. This volume is sorely needed, just like one on Alarm Management, Safety and Security Systems, and Operator Performance...all so that executives who may or may not have any plant management expertise or experience can understand why we spend so much time talking about these issues...and how much money doing it right can save them, as well as how much money doing it wrong will cost.
