Facility Layout and Location: An Analytical Approach (2nd Edition)
( Here's a comprehensive overview of quantitative methods...)
Here's a comprehensive overview of quantitative methods for facility layout and location, in contrast to the widely used qualitative methods. The facility layout and location problems are treated together and viewed as a "layout problem in the large," since problems of single facilities and systems of facilities have much in common. The book offers a thorough introduction to the field's issues and literature, along with the basic tools and methodologies involved.

When it comes to facilities planning, engineers turn to this book to explore the most current practices. The new edition continues to guide them through each step in the planning process. The updated material includes more discussions on economics, the supply chain, and ports of entry. It takes a more global perspective while incorporating new case studies to show how the information is applied in the field. Many of the chapters have been streamlined as well to focus on the most relevant topics. All of this will help engineers approach facilities planning with creativity and precision.
