Industrial engineers determine the most effective ways to use the basic factors of production—
people, machines, materials, information, and energy -- to make a product or provide a service.
They are concerned primarily with increasing productivity through the management of people, methods of business organization, and technology.
To maximize efficiency, industrial engineers study product requirements carefully and then design manufacturing and information systems to meet those requirements with the help of mathematical methods and models.
They develop management control systems to aid in financial planning and cost analysis, and they design production planning and control systems to coordinate activities and ensure product quality.
They also design or improve systems for the physical distribution of goods and services and determine the most efficient plant locations. Industrial engineers develop wage and salary administration systems and job evaluation programs. Many industrial engineers move into management positions because the work is closely related to the work of managers.
The work of health and safety engineers is similar to that of industrial engineers in that they deal with the entire production process. Health and safety engineers promote worksite or product safety and health by applying knowledge of industrial processes, as well as mechanical, chemical, and psychological principles. They must be able to anticipate, recognize, and evaluate hazardous conditions as well as develop hazard control methods. They also must be familiar with the application of health and safety regulations.

That article explains about what industrial engineering is. In the passage above discussed about the purpose and the work of an industrial engineer. They try to use an effective and efficient way to produce a product or a service to make a good quality. In my opinion this article is dedicated to anyone, especially business workers who need a way to survive in the cruel world of business competition. On the text have described about what can be done by an industrial engineer, first they determine about the most effective ways to use the basic factor and for maximize the efficiency. They develop management control system to aid in financial planning and cost analysis then they also design or improve system for the physical distribution of goods and services. Second an industrial engineer move into management position because is closely related with their job. Third about health and safety engineers promote worksite or product safety and health. It all is surefire ways for an engineer who wants to be more success. Although not an article that is too weighty but can be used as one of the references for all. And from the article finally I know what an be done by a scholar of the industry.
