ABSTRACT
It is clear that manufacturing systems are deeply concerned with management, which achieves organisational objectives by utilising production resources. In order to utilise those resources efficiently, a systems approach is considered to be effective. This is the management system. Structures and functions of a manufacturing management system differ, depending upon the types of economic goods that the manufacturing firm produces as outputs and on types of production. 'Manufacturing' has its most basic meaning when the products manufactured are delivered as commodities to the market and are bought by consumers. 'Management' is the function of identifying the needs of the market and transmitting them to the design and production divisions. The most important function in the manufacturing firm is the production function which is concerned with the material flow; that is, resources of production, especially raw materials, are acquired from the external environment, and converted into finished products that are brought to the market as commodities.
