However, there are many difficult and complex processes involved in providing everyone with affordable and readily available consumer goods. The name for the system planning that goes into these processes is Industrial Engineering. It involves the procurement of the materials needed for production, the inexpensive production of quality products, and the transportation of those products to consumers.
