Introduction to Materials Management, 9th Edition, is a textbook covering the core elements of modern supply chain management. Adopted by colleges and universities worldwide, the volume explains how manufacturing, purchasing, distribution, and quality management operate together.
The text surveys production planning, demand forecasting, and inventory control. For the 2023 edition, the authors expanded their coverage of how supply chain functions depend on one another and introduced a chapter connecting topics previously addressed separately.
Because it avoids complex mathematics, the volume offers accessible instruction for students in materials management courses. The Association for Supply Chain Management also recommends the book as a preparation reference for CPIM certification exams.
