Practices in Operational Management—Engineering Management

Abstract

Inherent in the history of the engineering profession has been constant advance in its methods of carrying out its tasks and ever-improving quality of its work output. In this country, it has played a major role in aiding in the development of the United States into its leading industrial position. Seldom in our history has the engineer been confronted with a challenge—to think and to perform—equalling that of the past decade.
