Quatrième de couverture:

Everyone manages processes . . . Everyone is an operations manager

--Dr Alison Smart, Manchester Business School, University of Manchester

“This comprehensive text shows how persuasive, relevant and exciting Operations Management is to business and everyday life.”
--Stephen Disney, Cardiff Business School
