The Missing Links:
A Demand Driven Supply Chain Detective Novel
By Caroline Mondon
July 2016, 300 pp., ISBN: 978-0-8311-3607-9, $34.95
This utterly unique how-to supply chain management industry guide is
written as a detective novel to engage readers. The book builds suspense
around the mysteries and conflicts of its main characters at the same time
that it reveals the problems threatening to undermine the small factory
where they all work.
The Missing Links takes a case study of a small factory whose owner
has passed away under suspicious circumstances, leaving his daughter in
charge. She encounters a multitude of problems—high work-in-progress
inventory, poor working conditions, conflicts between two workshops, and
longstanding customers leaving because of a decline in product quality.
The new shop owner must learn the business and figure out a way to best
solve the problems that threaten her company.
The mission of this book is to demonstrate the effectiveness and the simplicity of the
new demand driven methodologies (DDMRP). Most common industry standards, such
as “total quality,” “lean,” and “total productive maintenance” are included, as well as “flow
management.” This book analyzes flow management as one of the “missing links” in making a company profitable. It also progressively introduces the foundations of the demand
driven methodology to respond to the hot topic of variability in modern supply chains. The
need to understand the changes in management style necessary to ensure success is
described as the second “missing link.”
The definition of success is the immediate profitability of the company and the satisfaction of its customers, as well as the ability of the CEO to adapt the strategy to embrace
new markets to prepare for the future and to motivate employees and shareholders.
FEATURES: • Completely unique approach—a cross between a detective mystery and how-to book
on supply chain management • Boasts 33 full-color appendices of the standard approaches used
in the novel, updated on a regular basis • Ties in perfectly with the CDDP program and certification
offered through the Demand Driven Institute • Written by an award-winning author and President of
Fapics, the French Association of Supply Chain Management.
TABLE OF CONTENTS: • PART I: Describes the business case associated with a fictional small
business • PART II: Analyzes the root causes of the profitability problems faced by the small business • PART III: Shows how best practices in Demand Driven supply chain management
can solve the problems to ensure both profitability and an attractive future for shareholders.

Requirements Planning (DDMRP)
By Carol Ptak and Chad Smith
July 2016, 400 pp., ISBN: 978-0-8311-3598-0, $69.95
Material Requirements Planning In the 1950’s, Joseph Orlicky conceived of a planning method
called Material Requirements Planning (or MRP) that changed the
world of manufacturing forever. But times have changed—customer
tolerance times are much shorter, product variety and complexity has increased, and supply chains have spread around the world.
Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning (DDMRP) is an
emerging, revolutionary method for supply chain planning and execution
that effectively brings the 1950s concept into the modern era. The founAn Intui(ve and Proven Planning and Execu(on Method for Today’s Complex and Vola(le Supply Chains dation of DDMRP is based upon the connection between the creation,
protection and acceleration of the flow of relevant materials and informaPtak and Smith
tion and return on investment.
Carol A. Ptak CFPIM, CIRM, CDDP Chad J. Smith CDDP Using an innovative multi-echelon “Pull” methodology, it helps plan and manage inventories and materials in today’s more complex supply scenarios, with attention being paid to ownership, the market, engineering, sales, and the supply base. It enables
a company to build more closely to actual market requirements, and promotes better
and quicker decisions and actions at the planning and execution level. Demand Driven
Material Requirements Planning is THE definitive work on DDMRP, and will be required
as courseware for all those taking the Certified Demand Driven Planner (CDDP) Program.
FEATURES: • THE authoritative work on an emerging methodology (DDMRP) • DDMRP is already
being used by some MAJOR Fortune 500 companies • Includes case studies and examples for different
sized companies in multiple industries • Offers a link to courseware for the CDDP program, as well as

Surviving the Spare Parts Crisis:
Maintenance Storeroom and Inventory Control
By Joel Levitt
November 2016, 272 pp., ISBN: 978-0-8311-3604-8, $49.95
The maintenance spare parts business is in turmoil because of many factors:
1. Globalization has increased competition;
2. The Internet has caused the disintermediation of parts distribution;
3. Technology in general has caused the rapid obsolescence of
machinery and increased the numbers of spare parts needed.
The key to uptime in manufacturing is managing risk. This work describes
how to evaluate risk in the inventory. It provides dozens of ideas to properly
reduce inventory, reduce usage, and save money in parts, all while maintaining service levels. The author, Joel Levitt, shows how the maintenance
department can provide better support to purchasing agents and buyers. In
the book, Levitt imparts the knowledge gained while he trained more than 17,000 people in 25 countries who
are facing problems with their spare part inventory.
This is an ideal resource for maintenance managers, planners, and engineers; parts specialists; supply chain
managers; and anyone involved in purchasing.
TABLE OF CONTENTS: • Already a hero • Vocabulary of stores and inventory • Vision and what are we really doing? • Modern production gives us the tools for maintenance planning • POV impacts how people view the storeroom • Misalignment of
accountability and realignment of accountability • Common comments about good and bad stockrooms • How well do you

Spare Parts Inventory Management:
A Complete Guide to Sparesology™
By Phillip Slater
December 2016, 272 pp., ISBN: 978-0-8311-3608-6, $49.95
No previous works have focused on the topic of inventory reduction and optimization to the extent that this one does. Spare Parts Inventory Management
covers the whole part’s life cycle, from initial purchase to final disposal, and addresses issues throughout, including MRO—maintenance, repair, and overhaul.
The author, Phillip Slater, was described in a recent podcast as “truly one of the
leaders in the MRO information segment.”
Sparesology™ is a term coined by Slater to describe the discipline of optimizing the physical, financial, and human resource management processes of
spare parts inventory management. Sparesology is much more than just inventory optimization. It involves an understanding of the complete “ecosystem”
within which spare parts inventory is managed, and seeks to ensure that all factors influencing this management
work in concert to achieve an organization’s goals.
