Summary: What is it? Pull everything and call it ERP?
Comment: I should believed Jim (another reviewer of this book). This book does not focus on ERP. Rather, it's a basic operation management book. There are only 2-3 chapters that really talk about ERP but only introduction. If you look for the introduction, "Daniel E. O'Leary" book is much more valuable (Enterprise Resource Planning Systems : Systems, Life Cycle, Electronic Commerce, and Risk). Although I am an IE, I don't think this book will be interesting other IE too. Like I said in subject, the author(s) try to pull everything, e.g., SCM, OM, and ERP and call it's an integration. The simulation game does not capture neither "fundamental" or "application". I still don't understand why APICS publish this book in the market.

Summary: Mile wide-inch deep
Comment: This book provides a good overview of ERP and its integration with supply chain planning. However, it appears targeted at the lay person with little experience in manufacturing planning and operations. The examples have little to do with real-world issues (although that makes them easier to understand perhaps.) If you're a manager and want to be able to use the lingo correctly, this might be a good book to buy. If you are really interested in gaining a working knowledge of the subject area, give it a pass.

Summary: Excellent guide for ERP users and providers
Comment: As an almost novice in ERP systems, I found it interesting to follow up all the chapters of this book: "ERP; tools, techniques, and applications for integrating the supplu chain". The book starts with the history of ERP and descriptions of every aspect of enterprise production systems. Chapters on backgrounds for operations management and each module of ERP systems follow this introductory part. At the end, real-world application issues and implementation problems are discussed. Examples and attached simulator (MICSS, contained in a CD-ROM) provide further demonstration of real case studies. I recommend this book to the intermediate level of ERP users of developers.
