{"product_id":"selecting-buying-installing-and-using-jan-young-9780557059157","title":"Selecting, Buying, Installing and Using a Modern Warehouse Management System","description":"This briefing is based on thirty years experience in the installation, servicing and operation of supply chain software. It was written for the executive, manager or engineer considering installation of a warehouse management system. It may also have special value to those who are considering a replacement of their present system. We begin with the purpose of warehouse management systems and a description of their costs and benefits. The build-versus-buy choice is discussed. Organizational impact and the short and long-term effect on customers are described. The book then moves into a discussion of how to buy a WMS, the project team that must be assembled, the marketplace for commercial systems, the types of systems available and how to go about choosing among them, the creation of a Request for Proposal and the evaluation of responses. It ends with a methodology for justifying\/funding a system and concludes with discussions of installation and ongoing operation and maintenance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jan Young\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0557059151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780557059157\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 7.44w x 0.32d","brand":"Jan Young","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437907554559,"sku":"9780557059157","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_37192013-2abd-4cd4-911b-82d5ba6f42c2.jpg?v=1777167586","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/selecting-buying-installing-and-using-jan-young-9780557059157","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
