It also highlights the need to consider the economics of operation prior to taking on new projects. Above all, the customer-manufacturer relationship is emphasised at all stages. The customer is encouraged to examine the capabilities of the manufacturer, and the manufacturer is encouraged to develop a good understanding of the exact requirements of the customer. This book is of value to all areas of a company, from those who pur UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=548197 ER -
