Aa to Az - Industrial Engineers and Their Achievements - Productivity Improvement

INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING PHILOSOPHY

I would like to state the philosophy of industrial engineering as engineering systems can be redesigned or improved and installed periodically for productivity increase or improvement. The primary drivers of productivity improvement are developments in basic engineering disciplines and developments in industrial engineering (developments in productivity science, productivity engineering and productivity management). The additional drivers are developments in related disciplines, for example, economics, mathematics, statistics, optimization techniques, ergonomics, psychology and sociology etc. - Narayana Rao, 1 April 2021.
