- Good undergrad/MBA text.If you're looking for a graduate textbook, Production & Operations Analysis by Nahmias is your essential text. I'm in a PhD program now, and I found Nahmias' book most helpful. But while I was in an MBA program, I used this POM book by Chase et al.

- The book is very well designed for a course on production/ oMy name is Muhammad Salim Khan. I am a Professor at the University here in Pakistan and have been using this book for teaching production / operation management to the students of MBA here at our university. In my opinion the book is well designed and fulfills all requirements of the course.
