The book's collection of anecdotes provides real-life insight into the potential challenges of achieving IRA, and the combination of an easy-to-read text and simple drawings makes this book an easy road map to follow on the proven path to higher inventory record accuracy."

"Excellent coverage of a fundamentally important topic. By far, the best book on the subject I've ever read. The three-phase approach to inventory record accuracy should be required reading for all manufacturing managers."
