Compare the different uses of industrial engineering methods within warehousing I noticed that a couple of student emails used the phrase ‘compare the different methods of industrial engineering’ but this is inconsistent with the wording of the task which states ‘compare the different uses’. Methods are standard but they can be applied to support different tiers of decision making. Some students have also mentioned that they can’t find books on the topic. This may be linked to their searching methods as I have found various sources. I also mentioned that you should read beyond standard textbooks and journal articles as the topic has a strong operational focus. Refer to the slides in the presentations which give an overview of sources of useful reports and white papers.
