  • New examples, problems, and case studies have been added, including ones showing applications with the service industry
  • Chapters 10 and 11 of the 10th edition, focusing on Standard Data and Formula Construction, have been combined in this edition, since these functions can now be accomplished using one of the many software packages available on the market today.
  • A book website offers instructor and student resources, including forms, practice problems, case studies, lab exercises, and student practice exams and solutions.
  • DesignTools version 3.0, a ready-to-use software program for time study, work sampling, standard data, and costing, appears on the site.
