How did improvements to their operations management processes help Toyota to become one of the world?s most successful car companies?How can studying operations management give you an insight into the factors that contribute to the success or failure of an organization?Operations management (OM) is central to the creation and delivery of every product and service that we need in our daily lives. From hotels to car plants, from airlines to hospitals, all organisations rely on the smooth running of their operations management function.
